Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of power inspection robot technology, and more specifically, to a power inspection robot. Background Technology

[0002] A power line inspection robot is an intelligent robotic system specifically designed for the inspection and maintenance of power facilities (such as substations, transmission lines, and power equipment). Its main function is to replace manual labor in performing high-risk, repetitive, and dangerous power line inspection tasks, thereby improving inspection efficiency and safety.

[0003] Main types of power line inspection robots:

[0004] 1. Ground inspection robot

[0005] Ground inspection robots are typically used for routine inspections of power equipment facilities, substations, switchyards, and distribution rooms. Key features include: All-terrain adaptability: Some ground inspection robots are designed with four wheels or tracks, enabling them to navigate complex terrains such as gravel and mud. Intelligent sensors: Equipped with temperature sensors, humidity sensors, infrared imaging, acoustic wave detection, and high-definition cameras, they can monitor the operating status of power equipment and capture abnormal data. Real-time data transmission: They can transmit data obtained during inspections to a remote control center in real time, facilitating timely handling of anomalies by technicians. Automation and remote control: Robots can automatically plan inspection paths, perform tasks periodically, or be remotely operated by personnel to complete specific tasks.

[0006] Typical applications: Substation inspection: Checking the working status of switchgear, cables, circuit breakers, etc., and monitoring parameters such as temperature and vibration. Power facility maintenance: Inspecting power facilities for damage, aging, and other problems, and promptly identifying potential hazards.

[0007] 2. Aerial Inspection Drones

[0008] Drones are widely used in power line inspections, especially at high-altitude locations such as transmission lines and towers, where manual inspections are difficult and pose safety hazards.

[0009] Key features: High-altitude operation capability: It can fly to high places such as power lines and substations for inspection, avoiding the high-risk operation of human workers climbing power poles. High-definition camera and infrared imaging: Equipped with high-definition cameras and infrared imaging equipment, it can clearly capture the condition of lines and equipment, and can even detect abnormal heat sources (such as overload, short circuit, etc.).

[0010] In conclusion, power inspection robots can not only improve the efficiency and accuracy of power facility inspections, but also enhance work safety and reduce human error, which is of great significance to the modernization and intelligent development of the power industry.

[0011] The prior art publication CN117863194A provides a power inspection robot. This device achieves multi-stage activation of the vertical telescopic device by setting up multiple layers of the mounting plate, resulting in a larger telescopic range and more flexible vertical position adjustment. The sliding connection between the square mounting plate and the mounting groove limits the horizontal sway of the entire position adjustment module, thereby providing the inspection device with a stable working platform and enabling smooth inspection of power equipment.

[0012] While the aforementioned existing technical solutions can achieve the relevant beneficial effects through their structure, they still have the following drawbacks: When inspecting utility poles near trees, branches may lean against the poles. Because the device is not convenient for handling these branches, the robot may not be able to operate flexibly in such environments. Especially when branches are dense or there are many obstacles around the utility poles, the robot's movement and operation may be restricted, affecting inspection efficiency.

[0013] In view of this, we propose a power line inspection robot. Utility Model Content

[0031] Please refer to Figures 1-3. This application provides a technical solution:

[0032] A power inspection robot includes an arc-shaped frame 1, an adjustment frame 2, a rotating base 3, an electric saw 4, and a camera 5. The adjustment frame 2 is slidably mounted on the arc-shaped frame 1.

[0033] The rotating seat 3 is rotatably connected to the adjusting frame 2;

[0034] The electric saw 4 is fixedly connected to the rotating base 3;

[0035] Camera 5 is fixedly connected to the adjustment bracket 2.

[0036] Specifically, a bidirectional lead screw 101 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the bottom end of the arc-shaped frame 1, and a movable frame 102 is slidably connected to both ends of the bidirectional lead screw 101. An electric wheel 103 is rotatably connected to the movable frame 102.

[0037] Furthermore, motors A104 are fixedly connected to both ends of the arc-shaped frame 1, and gears 105 are fixedly connected to the output end of motors A104. Multiple sponge wiping rods 106 are fixedly connected to the arc-shaped frame 1, and the sponge wiping rods 106 are slidably contacted with the lens of camera 5.

[0038] Furthermore, an arc-shaped rack 201 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the adjustment frame 2, and the arc-shaped rack 201 meshes with the gear 105 for transmission.

[0039] In addition, a motor B301 is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating seat 3, and the motor B301 is fixedly connected to the adjusting frame 2.

[0040] The implementation principle of the power inspection robot in this application embodiment is as follows: When it is necessary to inspect the utility poles in the forest, firstly, the bidirectional lead screw 101 is rotated, so that the bidirectional lead screw 101 drives the two moving frames 102 to move closer to each other, so that the electric wheel 103 can be clamped on the utility pole. Then, the drive device moves on the utility pole. At this time, the camera 5 is used to collect surface images of the utility pole for inspection. At the same time, when a branch is detected to be leaning against the utility pole, the motor A104 drives the gear 105 to rotate, so that the gear 105 drives the adjustment frame 2 connected to the arc rack 201 to rotate to a suitable position. Then, the motor B301 drives the rotating seat 3 to rotate, so that the electric saw 4 is adjusted to a suitable angle to clean the branch. When the adjustment frame 2 rotates, the lens of the camera 5 can be cleaned under the action of the sponge wiping rod 106 to ensure the image acquisition quality.
