Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tower tilt monitoring technology, and in particular to a tower tilt monitoring device. Background Technology

[0002] The stability and robustness of transmission line tower foundations are crucial for the transmission lines themselves. However, in some areas, soft soil, illegal excavation of foundations, surface subsidence, or natural disasters (such as rain erosion) can cause tower foundation slippage, uneven tower settlement, and tilting in a certain direction. In the early stages of tower tilting, uneven settlement, or displacement, it is difficult for patrol personnel to observe these phenomena visually. Therefore, real-time monitoring of the towers is essential. Before large-scale displacement or tilting occurs, timely warning signals should be sent to the relevant tower operation and maintenance departments to eliminate potential safety hazards.

[0003] Existing methods for monitoring the tilt of transmission line towers typically involve installing tilt sensors on the towers. For example, patent CN202956104U discloses a transmission line tower tilt monitoring system that connects to a wireless communication base station via a wireless communication network to receive tilt angle signals transmitted by the base station. This aims to solve the problem of real-time monitoring of transmission line tower tilt and thus enable timely intervention to address the tilt issue. The technical solution has the following problems: the system is powered by solar panels, but in areas with a lot of wind and sand, the surface of the solar panels is easily covered by dust, which affects their operation. At the same time, the tilt sensor is not easy to level after installation, which affects subsequent monitoring. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a tower tilt monitoring device.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A tower tilt monitoring device includes a first clamp and a second clamp. A first fixing plate is fixedly connected to the second clamp. A support base is fixedly connected to the top of the first fixing plate. A mounting plate is movably connected to the top of the support base. A monitoring mechanism is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting plate by bolts. A second fixing plate is fixedly connected to one side of the first clamp, and a fixing frame is fixedly connected to the top of the second fixing plate. A solar panel is fixedly connected to one side of the fixing frame, and a battery compartment is fixedly connected to the top of the second fixing plate. The battery compartment contains a solar charge controller, an inverter, and a battery pack. The solar charge controller, inverter, battery pack, and solar panel are electrically connected by wires. The system also includes a leveling mechanism on the first fixing plate for adjusting the position of the monitoring mechanism, and a cleaning mechanism on the fixing frame for cleaning the solar panel.

[0006] In one possible design, the leveling mechanism includes an electrically operated telescopic rod, the bottom end of which is movably connected to the top of a first fixed plate via a connector, and the output end of which is movably connected to the bottom of a mounting plate via a connector.

[0007] In one possible design, the cleaning mechanism includes a rectangular box, a drive motor, a reciprocating lead screw, a slider, an air jet box, and a high-pressure air pump. The rectangular box is fixedly connected to a fixed frame, the drive motor is fixedly connected inside the rectangular box, one end of the reciprocating lead screw is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the drive motor via a coupling, and the other end of the reciprocating lead screw is rotatably connected to the inner wall of one side of the rectangular box via a bearing. The slider is drivenly connected to the reciprocating lead screw. A strip-shaped hole is opened on one side of the rectangular box, and the slider passes through the strip-shaped hole and is fixedly connected to the air jet box. The high-pressure air pump is fixedly connected to the air jet box, and the output end of the high-pressure air pump is fixedly connected to the air jet box via a connecting pipe. Multiple air outlets are opened at the bottom of the air jet box, and a housing is provided outside the high-pressure air pump.

[0008] In one possible design, both the first clamp and the second clamp are provided with mounting holes, and fixing bolts are provided in the mounting holes.

[0009] In one possible design, the solar panel is equipped with multiple turbines, which are rotatably connected to the solar panel via bearings, and each turbine blade is equipped with a bird-repelling rope.

[0010] In one possible design, the rectangular box has a groove inside, and the slider is slidably connected to the groove via a moving block.

[0011] In this application, when in specific use, the first clamp and the second clamp are first installed at a suitable position on the tower, and then the fixing bolts are passed through the first clamp and the second clamp, and then the fixing bolts are fixed by tightening nuts. In this way, the first clamp and the second clamp can be firmly installed on the tower. Then, the monitoring mechanism is installed on the mounting plate. At this time, the mounting plate and the monitoring mechanism are adjusted horizontally by the electric telescopic rod so that the mounting plate and the monitoring mechanism are in a horizontal position. Specifically, the output end of the electric telescopic rod extends, which changes the position of the mounting plate. The tilt sensor in the monitoring mechanism transmits a signal, and the microcontroller senses that the position of the tilt sensor is close to 0°. After the adjustment is completed, the tower can be monitored in real time through the tilt sensor. Solar panels can convert solar energy into electrical energy. When it is necessary to clean the surface of the solar panels, the controller starts the drive motor and high-pressure air pump. The drive motor can rotate the reciprocating screw, which in turn can drive the slider to move the air box back and forth. The high-pressure air pump can discharge high-pressure gas through the air outlet, which can blow away the dust on the solar panels.

[0012] In this invention, the electric telescopic rod in the leveling mechanism can precisely adjust the levelness of the mounting plate, ensuring that the tilt sensor is in the optimal working posture, and providing a reliable data basis for tower safety assessment.

[0013] In this invention, the combined design of the turbine and bird deterrent rope utilizes wind power to drive rotation, effectively preventing birds from landing on the surface of the solar panel through visual and motion interference, thus avoiding contamination of the solar panel surface by bird droppings, reducing cleaning frequency, and protecting the equipment from damage by birds.

[0014] In this invention, the cleaning mechanism generates compressed air through a high-pressure air pump, which, in conjunction with a reciprocating jet box, can effectively remove dust and debris from the surface of the solar panel. Regular cleaning operations ensure that the solar panel is always in optimal working condition. Attached Figure Description
