The invention discloses a surface self-cleaning glass insulator, which relates to the technical field of glass insulators and comprises a glass insulator main body and a self-cleaning device arranged on the outer side. The self-cleaning device comprises a rotating center arranged around the central axis of the glass insulator main body and a plurality of cleaning brushes connected with the rotating center; each cleaning
brush is provided with a
brush part and a wind wing part which are oppositely arranged, the outer arc surface of the
brush part is attached to the outer surface of the glass insulator main body, and the wind wing part drives the cleaning brush to rotate around a rotating center under the action of
wind power; a vibrating part is arranged in the
tail end of the cleaning brush, a micro power generation unit is arranged in the rotating center, and the micro power generation unit drives the cleaning brush to rotate through
wind power to generate power and supplies power to the vibrating part, so that the vibrating part vibrates to assist the brush part in cleaning the surface of the glass insulator; through the synergistic effect of
wind power driving, mechanical scrubbing and vibration auxiliary cleaning, long-term automatic cleaning of the glass insulator is achieved, the
stain resistance and operation reliability of the glass insulator are improved, and manual maintenance is not needed.
