Problems solved by technology

The use of helicopter inspections can not be affected by the geographical environment and improves the efficiency of checking line faults. However, the degree of automation of helicopter inspection technology is not high, manual work is still required, and inspection costs are high, so this technology is difficult to obtain. Widespread use
The inspection technology based on drones makes up for the shortcomings of helicopters, but its battery life is very poor, and it cannot carry out long-distance and long-term inspections. In this way, it is still impossible to complete power in remote mountainous areas or places with harsh environments. Inspection work, resulting in many power failures

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of power grid intelligent inspection, in particular to an autonomous charging device and a charging control method for an unmanned aerial vehicle. Background technique [0002] With the continuous improvement of national infrastructure, the area covered by the power grid is increasing, which puts forward higher requirements for power grid inspection. Transmission and distribution lines must not only bear high-voltage power loads, but also withstand external mechanical loads for a long time, as well as damage from nature and external forces such as earthquakes, thunderstorms, and strong winds. If the ability and efficiency of power line inspections cannot be improved, the power system will Safety cannot be guaranteed. However, the traditional manual inspection method has obvious defects such as many human factors, high management costs, and low efficiency, and is no longer suitable for large-scale power grid...
