Device for servicing live power lines

A device for servicing live power lines, the device comprising:

• a) a main body;
• b) two primary mechanical arms, each primary mechanical arm having five degrees of freedom;
• c) two telescopic arms, each telescopic arm comprising an upper end comprising a travelling wheel mechanism, an equipotential wheel, and a first clamping jaw for clamping a high voltage transmission line;
• d) a terminal device;
• e) an auxiliary mechanical arm, the auxiliary mechanical arm having six degrees of freedom and comprising a second clamping jaw;
• and
• f) a monitoring system;
• wherein
• the travelling wheel mechanism, the equipotential wheel, and the first clamping jaw are disposed on the upper end of each telescopic arm;
• the two primary mechanical arms are symmetrically disposed on two sides of the main body, respectively;
• the two telescopic arms are vertically disposed on two ends of the main body, respectively, and are capable of telescoping upward and downward;
• the auxiliary mechanical arm is disposed on the main body and is adapted to move transversely on the main body;
• the main body is driven by the travelling wheel mechanism to travel on the high voltage transmission line, the equipotential wheel contacts the high voltage transmission line, and the first clamping jaw clamps the high voltage transmission line for locating the main body;
• and
• the monitoring system is disposed on the main body and controls movements of the primary mechanical arms, the telescopic arms, the terminal device, the auxiliary mechanical arm, the second clamping jaw, the travelling wheel mechanism, the equipotential wheel, and the first clamping jaw.
