More Information
Summary:Robot for hot line washing of low-altitude insulators at a substation, comprising: a vehicle traveling mechanism (8), a powertrain (11), a vertical lifting/lowering mechanism (5), a water-jet washing mechanism, and an electrical control system. The powertrain (11) is mounted on the vehicle traveling mechanism (8). The vertical lifting/lowering mechanism (5) is connected at the front extremity of the vehicle traveling mechanism (8). Two levels of telescoping arms are mounted on the vertical lifting/lowering mechanism (5), where the upper arm is connected with the water-jet washing mechanism via an insulating support column (13). The robot is capable of replacing manual labor in washing insulators of a substation, allows an operator to be situated in a safe area, reduces labor intensity, and increases washing efficiency. Also provided is a method for washing.
