Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0019] Please see Figures 1 to 3 This utility model provides a technical solution: an intelligent inspection device for a centralized control station, including a protective cover 3 set at the top of the main body 1. A camera 2 is installed inside the protective cover 3 and located at the top of the main body 1. The protective cover 3 is composed of a base 31, a cover body 32, a top cover 33, and multiple support rods 34. The base 31 is fixed to the bottom end of the cover body 32 and fits against the top of the main body 1. The base 32 is made of polycarbonate, which has advantages such as strong impact resistance, high strength and light weight, good temperature resistance, high light transmittance, UV resistance, chemical corrosion resistance, and flame retardancy and self-extinguishing. The top cover 33 is set at the top of the cover body 32, and multiple support rods 34 are set inside the cover body 32. The designed protective cover 3 improves the problem that when the inspection robot in the original intelligent inspection device of the centralized control station works, due to environmental problems, it works in complex environments such as dust and humidity, and the camera 2 and infrared sensor are contaminated or damaged, resulting in reduced accuracy and reliability of detection data. By setting the protective cover 3, the problem is solved. To ensure the protection of the inspection robot during operation, the top cover 33 is designed to protect the camera 2 and infrared sensors. This design ensures that light transmittance does not affect image acquisition and temperature detection, while also providing protection. The top cover 33 consists of a protective plate 331 and a support frame 332. The support frame 332 is fixed to the top of the cover 32, and the protective plate 331 is fixed to the inside of the support frame 332. The top of the cover 33 is sealed to the top of the cover 32. The tops of multiple support rods 34 are fixed to the bottom of the support frame 332, and the bottoms of multiple support rods 34 are fixed to the bottom of the base 31. Ultrasonic sensors are installed around the main body 1 to detect the distance to surrounding obstacles and achieve obstacle avoidance. An infrared sensor is installed on the camera 2. The infrared sensor works in conjunction with the camera 2 to detect the temperature of the equipment, facilitating timely detection of abnormalities such as overheating. A communication module is installed inside the main body 1 to connect with the central control station's backend system, transmit the collected data in real time, and receive control commands from the backend.

[0020] In this embodiment, preferably, mounting components 30 are provided on both sides of the base 31 and at the top of the main body 1. The mounting components 30 consist of symmetrically arranged limiting seats 301 and mounting plates 302. The mounting components 30 make the protective cover 3 and the main body 1 detachable. The symmetrically arranged limiting seats 301 are fixed to the top of the main body 1, and the mounting plates 302 are arranged between the symmetrically arranged limiting seats 301. The ends of the mounting plates 302 are fixed to the sides of the base 31. Bolts pass through the inner side of the mounting plates 302, and the ends of the bolts pass through the inner side of the main body 1. Inclined grooves 3020 are provided at the bottom ends of both sides of the mounting plates 302 and at the top edge of the limiting seats 301. When the protective cover 3 is disassembled, it is disassembled by the through bolts, and then the protective cover 3 is lifted as a whole to separate the limiting seats 301 and the mounting plates 302.

[0021] The working principle and usage process of this utility model: During the intelligent inspection process of the inspection robot in the central control station, the inspection task of the robot is first set according to the inspection requirements, including the inspection route, inspection point, inspection items and cycle, etc., and the task instructions are sent to the robot. Then, the robot uses its own navigation and positioning technology, combined with the preset map, to move autonomously to each inspection point along the planned route. When it arrives at the inspection point, the sensor system starts to work. The camera (2) captures the equipment image, the infrared sensor measures the equipment temperature, the ultrasonic sensor monitors the surrounding environment, etc. Finally, the collected various operating data are transmitted back to the background system in real time through the communication module. The background uses image recognition, data analysis algorithms and other technologies to intelligently diagnose the equipment status and determine whether there is an abnormality in the equipment. When an abnormality is detected, the system immediately issues an alarm signal to notify the maintenance personnel and provides detailed information such as the type and location of the abnormality so that it can be dealt with in a timely manner. After completing all the inspection tasks, the robot returns to the designated position and waits for the next task instruction.

[0022] When the inspection robot is working, the protective cover (3) isolates the dust and moisture in the central control station environment to prevent dust from adhering, blurring the image, causing errors in the identification of equipment appearance and instrument readings, interfering with infrared radiation reception, affecting the accuracy of temperature detection, and causing electrical short circuits due to moisture.

[0023] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
