Research and Application of Spacer Installation Robot

In the current construction process of high-voltage transmission lines, the installation of spacer rods mainly adopts manual stepping on the line and high-altitude operation flying vehicles. However, the existing methods still have safety hazards and are not efficient. In the process of installing the spacer rod, it is necessary to measure and locate the installation position of the spacer rod. At present, measuring tape or ground theodolite is mainly used for measurement, which requires the cooperation of multiple people, which is inconvenient to operate. This paper proposes and designs a spacer rod installation robot, gives the basic structure and control system design of the robot, and completes the mechanical processing and assembly of the robot prototype. On this basis, the key components are debugged and tested. Finally, the prototype was tested in an experimental environment and related technical indicators were tested to verify the feasibility and effectiveness of the design scheme.
