The invention discloses a two-degree-of-freedom motion mechanism suitable for 10kv power distribution operation. The two-degree-of-freedom motion mechanism comprises an inner casing, a clamping mechanism, a driving mechanism, a rotating mechanism, an outer casing and a stopping mechanism. The clamping mechanism is arranged in the inner casing and comprises more than two inner rollers 1 and a pressing assembly. The inner rollers 1 are rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the inner casing. The pressing assembly is disposed above the inner rollers 1. The pressing assembly and the inner rollers1 clamp or loosen a cable in cooperation. The driving mechanism is disposed in the inner casing and drives the inner rollers 1 to rotate. The rotating mechanism is disposed on the outer wall of the inner casing. The rotating mechanism drives the outer casing to rotate around the inner casing. The stopping mechanism is disposed between the inner casing and the outer casing and is configured to restrict axial movement between the inner casing and the outer casing, and to support the outer casing to rotate around the outer casing. The two-degree-of-freedom motion mechanism suitable for 10kv powerdistribution operation has high flexibility, can facilitate the comprehensive cable detection by a detection device, and can also adapt to a variety of working environments.
