The utility model discloses a suspension type cable X-
ray detection
robot, and relates to the cable X-
ray detection technology field, the suspension type cable X-
ray detection
robot comprises an upper support frame, the upper support frame is fixedly provided with an imaging plate, the lower wall surface of the upper support frame is fixedly provided with a pair of bearing cylinders, the lower end of each bearing cylinder is in an
open structure, and the lower end of each bearing cylinder is provided with an opening. The upper supporting frame is hoisted through an external unmanned aerial vehicle, so that the L-shaped supporting rods are hung on a cable, the L-shaped supporting rods are limited on the cable by starting the limiting assemblies, the imaging plate and the X-ray
machine are prevented from falling, the first motor drives the shaft rod to rotate, the shaft rod drives the rolling wheels to rotate, and the supporting rods are arranged on the supporting frame. The X-ray
machine is driven to ascend through the lifting
assembly, then the imaging plate and the X-ray
machine are indirectly driven to move, the imaging plate and the X-ray machine are arranged at the position to be detected, the X-ray machine is driven to ascend through the lifting
assembly, then X-ray photographing is conducted on a cable, manual climbing is omitted, meanwhile, manual X-ray machine holding work is omitted, and the personal safety of workers is guaranteed.
