[0002] The outer sheath of a power cable is the outer protective material in the cable structure. Its functions include insulation, corrosion protection, and environmental isolation. After the power cable sheath is produced, it needs to be inspected by a testing robot to check for defects such as burrs, spots, and oil stains on the surface of the power cable sheath, thereby improving the production quality of the power cable sheath.

[0003] Traditional power cable sheath inspection robots suffer from dust accumulation on the high-resolution camera lens, which is used to inspect the cable sheath. This dust can negatively impact the inspection results, requiring the camera lens to remain relatively clean to ensure accuracy. Therefore, we propose a power cable sheath inspection robot with an automatic cleaning function to address this issue. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[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] Please see Figure 1-4 An embodiment of this utility model provides a power cable sheath inspection robot with automatic cleaning function, including a movable base 1, a support base 2 installed at the top of the movable base 1, a first transmission component 3 installed at the top of the support base 2, a first robotic arm 4 installed on one side of the first transmission component 3, a second robotic arm 6 installed at the top of the first robotic arm 4, a swing arm 8 installed on the left side inside the second robotic arm 6, a second transmission component 5 installed on the right side of the front end of the second robotic arm 6, a third transmission component 7 installed on the left side of the front end of the second robotic arm 6, a mounting base 13 installed at the bottom of the swing arm 8, a high-resolution camera 10 installed on one side of the mounting base 13, an information transmission module 9 installed at the top of the high-resolution camera 10, a fixing plate 23 installed on the left side of the high-resolution camera 10, a fixing base 24 installed at the bottom of the fixing plate 23, a first telescopic cylinder 11 installed inside the fixing base 24, and a cleaning scraper 12 installed on the right side of the first telescopic cylinder 11.

[0022] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 4As shown, when cleaning the lens at the bottom of the high-resolution camera 10, the first telescopic cylinder 11 is activated to push the cleaning scraper 12 from one side of the bottom of the high-resolution camera 10 to the other side, so that the cleaning scraper 12 can wipe and clean the lens at the bottom of the high-resolution camera 10, so that the high-resolution camera 10 can be kept clean for shooting and testing.

[0023] Both ends of the mounting base 13 are fixed with a retainer 20. Each retainer 20 has a retainer rod 14 installed inside, and one side of the retainer rod 14 is fixed to one side of the high-resolution camera 10. Each retainer 20 has a threaded rod 21 threaded inside, one end of the threaded rod 21 is equipped with a rotating block 19, and the other end of the threaded rod 21 is equipped with a locking block 22. There are two sets of retainer rods 14 and retainers 20. The retainer rods 14 and retainers 20 are compatible with each other. The retainer 20 has internal threads evenly arranged inside, and the retainer 20 and the threaded rod 21 form a threaded connection, which facilitates the installation of the high-resolution camera 10. The operation is simple and convenient. There are two sets of locking blocks 22, and the two sets of locking blocks 22 are symmetrically distributed about the central axis of the mounting base 13, so that the high-resolution camera 10 is stably installed on one side of the mounting base 13.

[0024] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, when disassembling the high-resolution camera 10, rotating the rotating block 19 causes the threaded rod 21 to rotate and pull the locking block 22 to unlock the locking rod 14. Then, pulling the high-resolution camera 10 to one side causes the locking rod 14 to move out of the inside of the mounting bracket 20, thus removing the high-resolution camera 10 for maintenance. When reinstalling after maintenance, the locking rod 14 on one side of the high-resolution camera 10 is engaged into the inside of the mounting bracket 20. Then, rotating the rotating block 19 in reverse causes the threaded rod 21 to rotate in the opposite direction, pushing the locking block 22 on one side to fit against the outer wall of the locking rod 14 and lock the locking rod 14. The high-resolution camera 10 can then be reinstalled and used again.

[0025] The movable seat 1 has a groove 15 inside. A second telescopic cylinder 18 is installed at the top of the groove 15. A disc 16 is installed at the bottom of the second telescopic cylinder 18, and a moving roller 17 is installed at the bottom of the disc 16. There are four sets of second telescopic cylinders 18. The four sets of second telescopic cylinders 18 are symmetrically distributed about the central axis of the groove 15, which pushes the disc 16 to move up and down stably.

[0026] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the second telescopic cylinder 18 is activated to push the disc 16 downward from the inside of the tank 15, so that the moving roller 17 at the bottom of the disc 16 replaces the moving seat 1 and contacts the ground. Then, the inspection robot is moved by the rolling of the moving roller 17. After it is moved to the place where it is needed, the second telescopic cylinder 18 is activated again to pull the disc 16 upward, so that the moving roller 17 is stored inside the tank 15 and the moving seat 1 contacts the ground to provide stable support for the inspection robot.

[0027] Working principle: In use, the inspection robot is first moved to the power cable sheath inspection location. During movement, the second telescopic cylinder 18 is activated to push the disc 16 downward from the inside of the tank 15, so that the moving roller 17 at the bottom of the disc 16 replaces the moving base 1 and contacts the ground. Then, the inspection robot is moved by the rolling of the moving roller 17. After moving to the required location, the second telescopic cylinder 18 is activated again to pull the disc 16 upward, so that the moving roller 17 is retracted into the inside of the tank 15, allowing the moving base 1 to contact the ground and stably support the inspection robot. After the inspection robot is placed, the first transmission component 3, the second transmission component 5, and the third transmission component 7 are activated to control the first robotic arm 4 and the second robotic arm 6. The high-resolution camera 10 is adjusted to a suitable position above the outer sheath of the power cable by rotating the swing arm 8. Then, the high-resolution camera 10 is turned on to take pictures of the outer sheath of the power cable. The information transmission module 9 transmits the captured information to the corresponding external computer equipment. The corresponding image analysis software inside the computer equipment analyzes the information to detect whether there are defects in the outer sheath of the power cable. If dust is found on the surface of the high-resolution camera 10 before or during the inspection, the first telescopic cylinder 11 can be activated to push the cleaning scraper 12 from one side of the bottom of the high-resolution camera 10 to the other side, so that the cleaning scraper 12 can wipe and clean the lens at the bottom of the high-resolution camera 10, so that the high-resolution camera 10 is kept clean for the inspection.

[0028] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
