The invention relates to power engineering and can be used in the operation of contact networks and transmission lines under tension in normal mode or in a de-energized condition, for solving the problem of removal from the wires ice formations.

Known maloletoarticles device type FOOT-6 to clear ice from the wires of the contact network (Drugov NI Maloletoarticles device type FOOT-6 (to clear ice from the contact wire). OI, CNIITEI IPU. J.-D. transp. Series electrification and energy management. 4, 1983. - p.12 - 18)containing a moving device for the mechanical removal of ice from the contact wire.

The disadvantage of this device is the low productivity and the possibility of damage and deformation of the wire during the process of removing ice. Damaged wires can cause a stop of the movement of trains, the deformation of the wires will be accompanied by further accelerated wear.

The same disadvantages are inherent in the drums with pneumaturia to remove ice from the wires contact the network / Fedorov V.F. Use drums with pneumaturia on the upholstery of ice from the wires of the contact network. (IL N e 1089-5123, Dnepropetrovsk, dcti, 1982. - 2 S.).

The closest claimed is a device that implements the method of removing the snow-l the stock cover with the wires of the transmission lines in patent No. 2404497, IPC H02G 7/16 published 20.11.2010. The device is a galvanically isolated current source connected in wire split phase power lines through the secondary winding of the pulse transformer, which form a current pulse with an amplitude sufficient to obtain such a quantity of heat in the wires of the split phase, which is necessary for warming up the snow-ice cover and reset it with wires.

However, this device does not provide timely warning of an impending emergency and automated removal of snow and ice cover with wire power lines.

The technical result of the utility model are:

- improve the protection of power lines from ice formations at the expense of timely warning of impending emergency situations;

- exclusion of the human factor in an emergency situation by automating the removal of snow and ice formations from the wires of the transmission lines;

This technical result is achieved in that the device for removing snow and ice cover with wire transmission lines, including managed galvanically isolated generator powerful current pulses, is connected via a pulse transformer wires corresponding split phases of the power lines, according to the claimed invention contains a substation containing local network reflectometer, generator RF pulses, managed galvanically isolated generators powerful current pulses, the total number of which corresponds to the number of controlled power lines connected to the switch power electronics, connecting their outputs in the corresponding split phase power lines, and the controller associated with the OTDR, the automated workplace of the Manager in the computer and the light display.

The essence of the technical solution is illustrated in the drawing, where

- figure 1 shows a functional diagram of a device for automatic removal of snow and ice covering from the wires of the transmission lines (on the example of two PTL);

- figure 2 - diagram of the generator of powerful impulses of current.

A device for removing snow and ice cover with wire transmission lines contains merged into a single LAN switch power electronics 1, the reflectometer 2, the generator of the RF current pulses 3, identical galvanically isolated generators powerful current pulses 4(4.1-4.n), the number of which is "n" corresponds to the number of controlled power lines. In addition, a single local network includes a controller 5, workstation dispatcher, the light display 7.

Each of the identical galvanically isolated generators powerful current pulses 4(4.1-4.n) through respective pulse transformers T1, T2, T3 separately connected through the switch of power electronics 1 wire split phases of the respective transmission lines.

The device also includes a power supply unit 8, which includes three constant current source. One of them (+Q4) connected in parallel to the generators of powerful current pulses 4(4.1-4.n); the second constant current source (Q2) is connected to the generator RF current pulses 3; to the third constant current source (+36) connected in parallel to the switch power electronics 1, the reflectometer 2, the generator RF current pulse 3, a controller 5, the dispatcher workstation in the computer 6 and the light display 7.

The device operates as follows.

Pulse reflectometer 2 operates in a normal mode clock, serial in time probing all controlled transmission lines in order to identify them ice formations. The principle of the reflectometer is to supply the pulse signal in the monitored transmission line, and determining the total time spent on its distribution in the forward and reverse direction after reflection from the end of the line. Because the ice is s education represent inhomogeneous dielectric, that reduces the speed of signal propagation, the results of the comparison of the measured traces with reference parameters glaze the clutch and its location along the controlled transmission line.

Upon detection of ice formations on any of the controlled transmission line, the controller 5 generates and transmits on LAN command to switch on the generator RF current pulse 3 to feed him a high-frequency voltage through the switch of power electronics 1 in this line split phase for pre-heating and the formation of waterlogged layer between the wire and the icy clutch. After completion of the preliminary heating wire split phase, automatically upon command from the controller 5, turns on the corresponding generator of a powerful current pulses (4.1-4.n), which passed a powerful impetus through the switch of power electronics 1 enters the controlled transmission line. As a result of exposure to this line of the split phase of a strong current pulse, is formed thermodynamic stroke, which is combined with the preheated layer between the wire and the icy clutch resets ice formations with power lines.

Workstation Manager 6 b provides spiropoulou work station with display operational information on the light display 7.

After removal of the ice formations with power lines automated device enters normal operation mode continuous monitoring of all power lines.

Thus, the claimed device increases the efficiency of protection of power lines from ice formations at the expense of timely notification of potential emergency situations and automate the removal of snow and ice formations with wire transmission line. Increase the reliability of message transmission to the control center about the status of the transmission lines and the exclusion of the human factor in an emergency situation provides an uninterrupted supply of electricity to consumers.
