Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of inspection drone technology, and in particular to a special inspection drone for hydrogen energy equipment in power energy facilities. Background Technology

[0002] In the current context of rapid development in the power energy industry, the safe and stable operation of power energy facilities is of paramount importance. As a clean and efficient energy source, hydrogen energy and related equipment are increasingly widely used in power systems. However, the inspection of hydrogen energy equipment in these power energy facilities faces numerous challenges. Existing conventional drone inspection technologies also have certain limitations when targeting hydrogen energy equipment in power energy facilities. Conventional drones typically lack dedicated detection modules for hydrogen energy equipment, making it impossible to accurately detect key safety indicators such as hydrogen leaks. Furthermore, their anti-interference capabilities are weak in complex electromagnetic environments, and they are prone to signal instability and loss of control around power facilities, affecting the safety and accuracy of inspections. In addition, the endurance and autonomous obstacle avoidance capabilities of conventional drones are insufficient to meet the needs of large-scale, long-term inspections of hydrogen energy equipment in power energy facilities.

[0003] Traditional manual inspection methods have significant shortcomings. Some power energy facilities and hydrogen energy equipment are located in environments such as high altitudes, remote mountainous areas, or complex terrains. Manual inspection is not only labor-intensive but also carries high safety risks, such as falls from heights, electric shocks, and explosions that may be caused by hydrogen leaks. At the same time, manual inspection is inefficient, making it difficult to achieve real-time and comprehensive monitoring of equipment. Furthermore, due to human factors, the accuracy and reliability of the inspection cannot be effectively guaranteed.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to provide a dedicated inspection drone for hydrogen energy equipment in power facilities to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a special inspection drone for hydrogen energy equipment in power energy facilities.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts a technical solution as follows: providing a special inspection drone for hydrogen energy equipment of power energy facilities, including a drone body, a mounting box fixedly connected to the lower part of the drone body, and a rotating component installed inside the mounting box;

[0007] The rotating assembly is capable of rotating the corresponding part 360°, and the mounting box has a rotating groove at the lower end.

[0008] A rotating ring is rotatably connected to the inner side of the rotating groove, and an adjustment component is installed on the rotating assembly.

[0009] The present invention is further configured such that: the rotating assembly includes a mounting plate fixedly connected inside the mounting box, a motor is mounted on the upper end of the mounting plate, a drive gear is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor, a mounting groove is provided at the lower end of the mounting box, and a rotating rod is rotatably connected to the inner side of the mounting groove, a driven gear is fixedly connected to the upper end of the rotating rod, a plurality of linkage rods are fixedly connected to the middle of the rotating rod, and a linkage plate is fixedly connected between the outer sides of the plurality of linkage rods.

[0010] With the above technical solution, when the motor is powered on and started, its output shaft begins to rotate, driving the drive gear fixed at the output end to rotate synchronously. Subsequently, the rotation of the drive gear drives the driven gear to rotate in the opposite direction through gear meshing, thereby driving the rotating rod to rotate in the mounting slot of the mounting box. The linkage rod drives the outer linkage plate to rotate synchronously, thereby realizing the attitude adjustment of the rotating component.

[0011] The present invention is further configured such that: the top of the linkage plate is fixedly connected to the lower end of the rotating ring, and the rotating ring matches the rotating groove.

[0012] Through the above technical solution, the matching of the rotating ring and the rotating groove can physically constrain the movement trajectory of the rotating ring, preventing radial or axial offset or wobbling during rotation, thereby avoiding movement deviation caused by loose components.

[0013] The present invention is further configured such that the driving gear meshes with the driven gear, and the driving gear and the driven gear are on the same plane.

[0014] With the above technical solution, when they are on the same plane, the tooth profiles of the driving gear and the driven gear can correspond completely, and a complete meshing area can be formed between the teeth, ensuring that the power of the motor can be completely transmitted to the driven gear through the gear, thereby stably driving the rotating rod to rotate.

[0015] The present invention is further configured such that: the adjustment component includes a U-shaped connector fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating rod, two fixed rods are rotatably connected to the U-shaped connector, a camera is fixedly connected between the inner sides of the two fixed rods, two mounting blocks are fixedly connected to the bottom of the linkage plate and one side of the camera, a guide rod is fixedly connected between the inner sides of each pair of mounting blocks, and a hydraulic rod is installed between the two guide rods.

[0016] With the above technical solution, when the hydraulic rod extends, it pushes the camera to rotate upward around the rotation axis of the fixed rod, so as to capture the target at a high position. When the hydraulic rod shortens, it pulls the camera to rotate downward around the rotation axis of the fixed rod, so as to capture the target at a low position.

[0017] The present invention is further configured such that: two guide grooves are provided on the U-shaped connector, and the two fixing rods are engaged with the corresponding guide grooves.

[0018] Through the above technical solution, the fit between the guide groove and the fixed rod can precisely constrain the rotation of the fixed rod, so that the fixed rod can only rotate around its own axis along the preset path of the guide groove, avoiding lateral offset or axial misalignment when the camera is tilted.

[0019] The present invention is further configured such that the outer surfaces of both guide rods are matched with the corresponding ends of the hydraulic rods.

[0020] Through the above technical solution, the matching of the guide rod and the hydraulic rod enables the force of the hydraulic rod to be accurately transmitted along the axial direction, avoiding lateral force due to hydraulic rod offset. This reduces energy loss and allows the power of the hydraulic rod to be converted into camera angle changes more efficiently, improving adjustment response speed and efficiency.

[0021] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0022] 1. This utility model, by setting up a rotating component, and through the precise drive of the rotating component, can perform a circumferential scan of the equipment when the drone is hovering or flying steadily, without the need for the drone to circle around the equipment or frequently adjust its flight trajectory. This can cover blind spots that are easily missed in traditional inspections and ensure that appearance defects are fully captured.

[0023] 2. By setting an adjustment component, this utility model can independently adjust the camera angle while keeping the infrared instrument and gas sensor aligned with the target, ensuring that the image, temperature, and leakage data correspond to the same detection point, thereby improving the recognition accuracy at different angles.

[0031] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, so that the advantages and features of the present invention can be more easily understood by those skilled in the art, thereby making a clearer and more definite definition of the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0032] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 6 A special inspection drone for hydrogen energy equipment in power facilities includes a drone body 1, a mounting box 2 fixedly connected to the lower part of the drone body 1, a rotating assembly 3 installed inside the mounting box 2, and a mounting plate 301 fixedly connected inside the mounting box 2. A motor 302 is mounted on the upper end of the mounting plate 301, and a drive gear 303 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 302. A mounting groove 308 is opened at the lower end of the mounting box 2, and a rotating rod 304 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the mounting groove 308. A driven gear 305 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the rotating rod 304, and multiple linkage rods 306 are fixedly connected to the middle of the rotating rod 304. A linkage plate 307 is fixedly connected between the outer sides of the multiple linkage rods 306. When the motor 302 is powered on and started, its output shaft begins to rotate, driving the drive gear 303 fixed at the output end to rotate synchronously. Subsequently, the rotation of the drive gear 303 drives the driven gear 305 through gear meshing. The reverse rotation causes the rotating rod 304 to rotate within the mounting slot 308 of the mounting box 2, and the linkage rod 306 drives the outer linkage plate 307 to rotate synchronously, thereby achieving the attitude adjustment of the rotating component 3. The top of the linkage plate 307 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the rotating ring 4, and the rotating ring 4 matches the rotating slot 5. The matching of the rotating ring 4 and the rotating slot 5 can physically constrain the movement trajectory of the rotating ring 4, preventing radial or axial offset or wobbling during rotation, thereby avoiding movement deviation caused by loose parts. The driving gear 303 meshes with the driven gear 305, and the driving gear 303 and the driven gear 305 are on the same plane. When they are on the same plane, the tooth profiles of the driving gear 303 and the driven gear 305 can correspond completely, and a complete meshing area can be formed between the teeth, ensuring that the power of the motor 302 can be completely transmitted to the driven gear 305 through the gears, thereby stably driving the rotating rod 304 to rotate.

[0033] like Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, the rotating assembly 3 can rotate the corresponding parts 360°. The lower end of the mounting box 2 has a rotating groove 5, and a rotating ring 4 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the rotating groove 5. An adjusting assembly 6 is mounted on the rotating assembly 3. The adjusting assembly 6 includes a U-shaped connector 601 fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating rod 304. Two fixed rods 602 are rotatably connected to the U-shaped connector 601. A camera 603 is fixedly connected between the inner sides of the two fixed rods 602. Two mounting blocks 604 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the linkage plate 307 and one side of the camera 603. A guide rod 605 is fixedly connected between the inner sides of each pair of mounting blocks 604. A hydraulic rod 606 is installed between the two guide rods 605. When the hydraulic rod 606 extends, it pushes the camera 603 to rotate upwards around the rotation axis of the fixed rod 602, enabling it to capture images of targets at higher altitudes. When the hydraulic rod 606 shortens, it pulls... The camera 603 rotates downwards around the rotation axis of the fixed rod 602 to capture images of targets at low altitudes. Two guide grooves are provided on the U-shaped connector 601, and the two fixed rods 602 engage with their corresponding guide grooves. This engagement precisely constrains the rotation of the fixed rods 602, ensuring they can only rotate along a preset path along their own axis, preventing lateral shift or axial misalignment during camera 603 pitch adjustment. The outer surfaces of the two guide rods 605 match the corresponding ends of the hydraulic rods 606. This matching ensures precise axial transmission of the hydraulic rod's force, preventing lateral force due to hydraulic rod 606 offset. This reduces energy loss and allows the hydraulic rod's power to be more efficiently converted into changes in the camera 603's angle, improving response speed and efficiency.

[0034] When this utility model is in use, the motor 302 is powered on and its output shaft begins to rotate, driving the drive gear 303 fixed at the output end to rotate synchronously. Subsequently, the rotation of the drive gear 303 drives the driven gear 305 to rotate in the opposite direction through gear meshing, thereby driving the rotating rod 304 to rotate in the mounting groove 308 of the mounting box 2. At the same time, the linkage rod 306 drives the outer linkage plate 307 to rotate synchronously, thereby realizing the attitude adjustment of the rotating component 3. Then, when the hydraulic rod 606 extends, it pushes the camera 603 to rotate upward around the rotation axis of the fixed rod 602 to realize the shooting of high targets. When the hydraulic rod 606 shortens, it pulls the camera 603 to rotate downward around the rotation axis of the fixed rod 602 to realize the shooting of low targets.

[0035] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and does not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the description and drawings of this utility model, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
