The invention provides a vertical shaft 
tidal current generating set. The vertical shaft 
tidal current generating set comprises three modules, namely an upper layer platform part, a supporting frame part and an 
impeller part, wherein the upper layer platform part mainly comprises a generator, a gear box, a horizontal connecting shaft, a supporting platform, a supporting column and a vertical connecting shaft; the supporting frame part is formed by connecting an upper frame plate, a lower frame plate, a left frame plate and a right frame plate; and the 
impeller part comprises a main shaft, a 
spoke sleeve, a 
spoke, a 
spoke shaft, a blade, a blade shaft, a wheel disk and an adaptive 
attack angle control device. The invention provides the high-performance vertical shaft 
tidal current generating set, which has high starting and generating performances and high structural strength, can be developed towards large-scale direction, can be used below a 
floating platform and above a 
pile base and a tension leg, is convenient to produce, manufacture, install and debug, and is suitable for 
engineering application.
