Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of substation inspection robot technology, specifically a rail-mounted substation inspection device. Background Technology

[0002] Rail-mounted inspection robots are typically installed indoors in substations, primarily inspecting indoor equipment to enable unmanned operation. During inspections, the robot uses a high-definition visible light camera to magnify and clearly identify equipment operating information such as indicator light status, circuit breaker status, and instrument readings. Simultaneously, it uses an infrared thermal imager to perform infrared temperature measurement on the equipment, enabling on-site detection of heat-related issues and defect diagnosis of power equipment. Finally, the robot transmits data on equipment operating status and robot working status to the dispatch center in real time via an industrial network, forming a closed-loop management system for inspections and improving inspection efficiency.

[0003] Cameras and infrared thermal imagers need to be exposed to the air during use, thus requiring regular cleaning and maintenance. However, these devices are at a certain height, and current technology cannot move them downwards. For example, the intelligent inspection equipment and system for power distribution stations disclosed in CN212302560U includes a guide rail, lead screw, first drive motor, slider, 360° rotating pan-tilt unit, and inspection mechanism. This means that personnel must use climbing tools to reach higher positions for cleaning and maintenance, which is laborious and dangerous. While an electric lifting mechanism could be installed, its low usage frequency due to infrequent cleaning and maintenance makes it impractical and increases the weight of the inspection mechanism, potentially leading to increased wear on the guide rails after long-term inspections. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a rail-mounted substation inspection device, which solves the problems existing in the prior art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model is implemented through the following technical solution: a guide rail type substation inspection device, including an electric guide rail, a rotating component, a base component, and a support component. A slide is provided on the electric guide rail, and a bidirectional lead screw is provided on the slide. A hexagonal rotating block is connected to the rear end of the bidirectional lead screw. Slide plates that are slidably connected to the slide are screwed to both sides of the bidirectional lead screw. The opposite sides of the two slide plates are inserted into a connecting frame. The connecting frame is slidably fitted onto a positioning block, and the positioning block is set on the slide. The bottom of the connecting frame is connected to a mounting base. Vertical rods penetrating the slide are provided around the top of the mounting base. A rotating seat one is provided at the bottom of the mounting base. A fixed seat is provided on the rotating seat one. Rotating seats two are provided on both sides of the fixed seat. A camera and an infrared thermal imager are respectively connected to the rotating seats two on both sides.

[0006] Both the rotating component and the supporting component are mounted on the base assembly, with the rotating component used to rotate the rotating block and the supporting component used to support the fixed base.

[0007] Preferably, the rotating assembly includes a mounting plate, on which a screw is threadedly connected. The top of the screw is connected to a gear rod via a bearing, and the gear rod is vertically slidably connected to the mounting plate. A gear sleeve is meshed on the gear rod, and a groove matching the rotating block is provided on the front side of the gear sleeve. The gear sleeve is connected to the mounting plate via a bearing.

[0008] Preferably, the base assembly includes a base, and the base is provided with casters around its bottom perimeter, and the mounting plate is disposed on the base.

[0009] Preferably, the base is provided with a maintenance tool drawer and a cleaning tool drawer.

[0010] Preferably, the support assembly includes a guide rod disposed on the base, a support rod and a support ring slidably connected to the outside of the guide rod, the support rod being located above the support ring, and a spring connecting the support ring and the base.

[0011] Preferably, a hanger rod is provided at the top of the electric guide rail.

[0012] This utility model provides a rail-mounted substation inspection device. Compared with the prior art, it has the following advantages:

[0013] 1. This rail-mounted substation inspection device uses a rotating assembly to engage a rotating block, which rotates the block. The other hand supports the fixed base via a support assembly. A bidirectional screw rotates, causing the two sliding plates to move in opposite directions until they leave the connecting frame. Once the connecting frame is released, the support rod on the support assembly is gradually lowered, allowing the fixed base to automatically descend under gravity. The camera and infrared thermal imager are guided by a vertical rod, eliminating the need for an electric lifting mechanism, thus reducing costs. Furthermore, the rotating assembly, support assembly, and base assembly do not move with the inspection mechanism when not in use, reducing wear on the electric guide rail. Personnel also do not need to use climbing tools to reach higher locations. This solution allows for cleaning and maintenance from a low position, offering advantages in terms of labor saving and safety.

[0014] 2. The guide rail type substation inspection device is equipped with a support ring and a spring on the support component, so that the support rod eventually contacts the support ring after moving down. The spring can then buffer the impact of the contact, thereby reducing the impact on the camera and infrared thermal imager. Attached Figure Description

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. 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.

[0021] See Figures 1-4 This utility model provides the following two technical solutions:

[0022] First implementation: A rail-mounted substation inspection device includes an electric rail 1, a rotating assembly 16, a base assembly 17, and a support assembly 18. The rotating assembly 16, base assembly 17, and support assembly 18 are not used when the camera 13 and infrared thermal imager 14 do not require cleaning or maintenance. A slide block 2 is provided on the electric rail 1 to drive the slide block 2 to move along the electric rail 1. A bidirectional lead screw 3 is provided on the slide block 2. A hexagonal rotating block 4 is connected to the rear end of the bidirectional lead screw 3. Rotating the rotating block 4 drives the bidirectional lead screw 3 to rotate. Slide plates 5 are screwed to both sides of the bidirectional lead screw 3 and are slidably connected to the slide block 2. The opposite sides of the slide plates 5 are inserted into the connecting frame 6 to position the connecting frame 6. The connecting frame 6 is slidably fitted onto the positioning block 7. The positioning block 7 is set on the slide 2. The connecting frame 6 is fixed in position by the positioning block 7 and the sliding plate 5. The bottom of the connecting frame 6 is connected to the mounting base 8. The top of the mounting base 8 is in contact with the slide 2 so that when it cannot be pushed upward, the sliding plate 5 is aligned with the connecting frame 6. In order to keep the lifting mounting base 8 guided, vertical rods 9 that penetrate the slide 2 are provided around the top of the mounting base 8. The bottom of the mounting base 8 is provided with a rotating base 10. A fixed base 11 is provided on the rotating base 10. Rotating bases 12 are provided on both sides of the fixed base 11. The rotating bases 13 and the infrared thermal imager 14 are connected to the rotating bases 12 on both sides respectively. The rotating bases 10 and 12 are both existing technologies and are used to adjust the shooting angle of the camera 13 and the infrared thermal imager 14.

[0023] Both the rotating component 16 and the supporting component 18 are mounted on the base component 17, and the rotating component 16 is used to rotate the rotating block 4, while the supporting component 18 is used to support the fixed base 11.

[0024] The rotating assembly 16 includes a mounting plate 161, on which a screw 162 is threadedly connected. The top of the screw 162 is connected to a gear 163 via a bearing, and the gear 163 is vertically slidably connected to the mounting plate 161. Rotating the screw 162 can drive the gear 163 to rise and fall. A gear sleeve 164 is meshed on the gear 163. The front side of the gear sleeve 164 has a groove that matches the rotating block 4. The gear sleeve 164 is connected to the mounting plate 161 via a bearing, so that the gear sleeve 164 can be fitted onto the rotating block 4 and rotated. The rotation is achieved by the rising and falling of the gear 163.

[0025] The base assembly 17 includes a base 171, with casters 172 on all four sides of the bottom of the base 171. The casters 172 are equipped with wheel brakes. The mounting plate 161 is mounted on the base 171 to facilitate the movement of the base 171, thereby facilitating the rotation assembly 16 on it.

[0026] The base 171 is equipped with a maintenance tool drawer 173 and a cleaning tool drawer 174, which facilitates the placement of tools and improves practicality and convenience.

[0027] The support assembly includes a guide rod 182 mounted on a base 171. A support rod 181 and a support ring 183 are slidably connected to the outside of the guide rod 182, with the support rod 181 positioned above the support ring 183. A spring 184 connects the support ring 183 to the base 171. The support rod 181 moves vertically on the guide rod 182 and can be used to contact the bottom of the fixed seat 11 for support. After the support rod 181 moves down, it eventually contacts the support ring 183. The spring 184 can then buffer the impact of the contact, thereby reducing the impact on the camera 13 and the infrared thermal imager 14.

[0028] The second implementation differs from the first implementation in that a hanging rod 15 is provided at the top of the electric guide rail 1 for fixing to the ceiling of the substation room.

[0029] Furthermore, all content not described in detail in this specification is existing technology known to those skilled in the art, and the model parameters of each electrical appliance are not specifically limited; conventional equipment can be used.

[0030] When cleaning or maintenance is required, the base 171 is moved using the caster wheel 172, causing the gear sleeve 164 to move and fit onto the rotating block 4. After fitting, one hand rotates the screw 162 while the other hand moves the support rod 181 to support the fixed seat 11. As the gear rod 163 moves down, the gear sleeve 164 drives the rotating block 4 to rotate, thereby driving the bidirectional lead screw 3 to rotate. This causes the two side slides 5 to gradually move away from the connecting frame 6 until the fixing of the connecting frame 6 is removed. At this point, the mounting seat 8 can be unfixed. Then, the support rod 181 is gradually moved down along the guide rod 182 until it contacts the support ring 183. The mounting seat 8 is guided by the vertical rod 9, allowing the camera 13 and... The infrared thermal imager 14 is lowered to a position within the worker's reach for cleaning or maintenance. After the operation is completed, the fixed base 11 is pushed upward until the connecting frame 6 can no longer be pushed. At this time, the screw 162 is rotated so that the toothed sleeve 164 drives the rotating block 4 to rotate, which allows the two side slides 5 to move to the opposite side and insert into the connecting frame 6, thus re-fixing the connecting frame 6. At this time, the support rod 181 can be released. Then, the base 171 is pushed so that the toothed sleeve 164 leaves the rotating block 4. Thus, the rotating component 16, the base component 17, and the support component 18 can be reused, so that the height of the inspection mechanism in the substation can be reduced, which is highly practical.
