The invention relates to a climbing detection
robot for transmission towers, which comprises a big arm telescopic device, wherein two ends of the big arm telescopic device are provided with a
manipulator device respectively; in the
manipulator device, the upper end of a transmission device passes through a box body and is connected with a driving device in the box body; the lower end of the transmission device is connected with a clamping device; and a detection device is arranged in the box body. The climbing detection
robot for the transmission towers provided by the invention can change the angle of manipulators according to angle bars toward different directions on the transmission towers so as to achieve
line switching between different angle bars, has strong barrier-crossing capacity, can carry the detection device to detect the angle bars at every position on the transmission towers, is efficient and safe, and can greatly reduce the labor intensity; besides, the climbing detection
robot has the advantages of simple structure, convenient maintenance and suitable popularization, cannot be limited by the factors of surrounding environment, weather and the like, and can detect the transmission towers at any time.
