The invention discloses a hydro-generator three-phase high-capacity alternating-current collecting ring device. According to the device, a shunt ring is adopted to reduce heating when currents flow through the collecting ring device, collecting rings of the special cooling structure are adopted to enhance cooling, the collecting rings are prevented from overheating to cause accidents, and the device is very suitable for being used on a variable-speed hydro-generator. The device comprises the collecting rings, hollow conductive rods, the shunt ring, a fixing nut, a shaft insulating ring and the like, wherein the collecting rings are arranged on a top shaft of the generator. The device is composed of the three collecting rings so that a three-phase alternating current power supply can be connected conveniently, and each collecting ring is provided with two hollow conductive rods which penetrate through the top shaft of the generator and are connected with an excitation copper bar of an inner cavity. The three sets of hollow conductive rods are arranged on three different axial sections in the top shaft respectively, and are evenly distributed according to circumferential 120 degrees, installation space in the top shaft is enlarged, vibration caused by asymmetric weight in a rotating process of a unit is also eliminated, and operation stability is improved.
