摘要: A utility pole lifting apparatus and method for raising a utility pole in addition to carried transmission cables away from a foundation, without requiring disconnecting or de-energization of the transmission cables. The utility pole lifting apparatus includes a base mounting structure configured to be coupled to the foundation and an upper lifting structure coupled to the base mounting structure and to the utility pole. The upper lifting structure is configured to elevate the utility pole above the foundation while supporting the utility pole and the transmission cables to allow an extension segment to be inserted between the foundation and the utility pole to permanently raise the height of the utility pole.

摘要: The Automatic Extending Device is an internally powered controlled automatic extension and retraction device of lengths of twelve meters or more in extended length that can support up to one hundred eighty one kilograms or more positioned on the far end away from the operator. The device is comprised of: a plurality of telescoping nested sliding extensible pole segments attached to an internally powered pole extension and retraction device comprised of a one way bearing with friction clutch; a tapered push/pull strip; a high friction drive wheel; a push/pull strip friction pinch wheel assembly; a strip guide to maintain push/pull strip location/position; and a push/pull strip spool which contains the push/pull strip when not extended into the pole. The device of the present invention does not conduct electricity, so it is safe for use in, around, and with powered lines, devices, or fixtures.

摘要: The present invention has an object of providing an arithmetic apparatus, a facility management method, and a program that make it possible to acquire current tension applied to outdoor structures in a short period of time and make a bearing determination. The arithmetic apparatus according to the present invention calculates the dip degree of a cable and a distance between poles from the 3D model data of the cable according to Math. C1 and calculates the tension of each cable between the poles from the dip degree, the distance between the poles, and the weight of the cable per unit length according to Math. C2 (when no wind blows) or Math. C4 (when wind blows). Further, the arithmetic apparatus according to the present invention calculates a combined load obtained by converting the tension and the load of the accessory of the poles into an arbitrary position on the poles according to Math. C3.

摘要: Power line conductors are normally shielded from direct lightning strikes by appropriately placed overhead ground wires. However, even when such overhead ground wires work as intended and intercept a strike, for a short period of time, typically a few microseconds, the shield wire is exposed to an impulse type potential rise. This could be sufficient to cause flashover of one or more line insulator strings. This is called backflash. The present invention solves this problem by providing a power transmission tower structure with an embedded ground conductor positioned in order to optimize the coupling factors to all conductors and reduce stress on all insulator strings through increased electromagnetic coupling. Use of a streamer-inhibited conductor avoids adverse effects such as radio interference and audible noise due to induced charges and improves electromagnetic coupling as a result of the reduced surge impedance of the conductor.

摘要: The invention relates to a vehicle displaceable along aerial conductors of an electricity transmission line. The vehicle includes a body having arms. Each arm has a first end pivotably mounted to the body and a second distal end. A motorized wheel is mounted to each arm to engage one of the conductors to displace the vehicle. Support rotors have at least two blades. Each blade has an arm portion extending from the support rotor and a contact portion extending from the arm portion to engage one of the conductors to temporarily support the vehicle. An arm displacement mechanism engages the arms, and is operable to displace the arms in a direction transverse to a direction of travel of the vehicle to move the arms together and apart.

摘要: Systems and methods for performing the dynamic anomaly localization of utility pole aerial/suspended/supported wires/cables by distributed fiber optic sensing. In sharp contrast to the prior art, our inventive systems and methods according to aspects of the present disclosure advantageously identify a “location region” on a utility pole supporting an affected wire/cable, thereby permitting the identification and reporting of service personnel that are uniquely responsible for responding to such anomalous condition(s).

摘要: A method and system for installing warning spheres on utility power lines using existing commercial drones and an unique preassembled warning sphere with an inverted U shape opening in its lower half, one or more cable clamp in the upper part of the inverted U which matches the utility cable's diameter, number of strands and longitudinal spiral pitch. The warning sphere also has two receptacles in its circumference for catching the drones retractable landing gears fitted with matching bulges, enabling the safe lifting and flying of the sphere, The Drone also has a 3D stereoscopic camera which is integrated to its video system, thus enabling the precise navigating of the drone directly above the utility cable, and then directing the drone and sphere's U slot and cable clamp into the cable, either manually, or automatically through modulating of the sticks command of the remote control of the drone.
