[0002] Wind power generation converts the kinetic energy of wind into electrical energy. As a clean and renewable energy source, wind energy is increasingly valued by countries around the world. In a wind turbine, the blades capture wind energy. When the blades rotate, the three blades will reach a dynamic balance. If one blade is damaged, it will affect this dynamic balance and also affect the capture of wind energy. During the operation of a wind turbine, the blades will often lose paint and be damaged. If the paint is not repainted in time, it will cause greater damage to the blades. Therefore, the daily inspection and repair of wind turbine blades is a very important issue.

[0039] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0040] 1. In the present invention, the adsorption mechanism fixes the connecting seat on the generator fan blade, so that the grinding wheel of the grinding mechanism contacts the generator fan blade, drives the grinding mechanism to move along the width direction of the paint peeling damage area, and grinds the entire surface of the paint peeling damage area, drives the grinding mechanism to move upward, and the paint spraying mechanism sprays paint on the local surface of the paint peeling damage area, drives the paint spraying mechanism to move along the width direction of the paint peeling damage area, and sprays paint on the entire surface of the paint peeling damage area; the first elastic member exerts a downward force on the mounting seat, so that the grinding wheel always contacts the surface of the paint peeling damage area, and automatically adapts to the wear of the paint peeling damage area. The curvature of the surface of the generator fan blade should be considered to improve the applicability of the grinding mechanism; the walking mechanism drives the connecting seat to move, and grinds and paints the area where the length of the paint peeling damage area is greater than the length of the grinding wheel, thereby improving the applicability of the painting device; when grinding and painting, the adsorption mechanism fixes the connecting seat to prevent the connecting seat from slipping off the surface of the generator fan blade, thereby improving the reliability of the painting device; before the walking mechanism works, the adsorption mechanism still keeps the connecting seat and the generator fan blade connected, preventing the connecting seat from slipping off the surface of the generator fan blade when the connecting seat moves, thereby improving the reliability of the painting device.

[0041] 2. In the present invention, the air pump and the second pump body are operated by the controller, so that the second switch valve is opened, the gas generated by the air pump enters the paint spray gun, and the second pump body allows the paint to enter the paint spray gun. Under the action of the gas, the paint is sprayed through the paint spray gun onto the surface of the generator fan blade to perform the painting work.

[0042] 3. In the present invention, before polishing is completed and painting is carried out, the air pump is operated by the controller, the No. 1 switch valve and the No. 2 switch valve are closed, and the No. 3 switch valve is opened. The gas generated by the air pump enters the jet rod and is sprayed downward through the nozzle structure to blow away the dust generated by polishing, clean the surface of the paint-depleted damaged area, improve the adhesion between the paint surface and the bottom surface of the paint-depleted damaged area, and improve the quality of painting.

[0043] 4. In the present invention, the driving assembly drives the sliding rod to move downward, so that the suction cup contacts the surface of the generator fan blade, so that the suction cup is adsorbed on the surface of the generator fan blade, so that all the suction cups are adsorbed on the surface of the generator fan blade, and the two middle rows of suction cups fix the two middle connecting pieces on the surface of the generator fan blade, and fix the connecting seat on the surface of the generator fan blade; the controller is used to make the two middle driving assemblies work in reverse, and the driving assembly first releases the adsorption state of the two middle rows of suction cups, so that the two middle rows of suction cups are detached from the surface of the generator fan blade. At this time, the outer two rows of suction cups are still adsorbed on the surface of the generator fan blade, and the connecting seat forms a sliding connection with the two outer connecting pieces, and then the two rows of suction cups are moved. The walking mechanism drives the connecting seat to move a certain distance and stop moving, so that the two middle drive components work in the forward direction, so that the two middle rows of suction cups contact and adsorb on the surface of the generator fan blades, and the connecting seat is fixed on the surface of the generator fan blades, and the two outer drive components work in the reverse direction, so that the two outer rows of suction cups are separated from the surface of the generator fan blades, and under the action of the No. 2 elastic parts at both ends of the connecting member, the connecting member is moved toward the middle of the connecting seat until the elastic force of the No. 2 elastic parts at both ends is balanced and the connecting member remains stationary, and then the two outer drive components are made to work in the forward direction through the controller, so that the two outer rows of suction cups contact and adsorb on the surface of the generator fan blades, and the above work is repeated to drive the connecting seat to move.

[0044] 5. In the present invention, the No. 3 rotating shaft rotates forward, the No. 3 pull rope is loosened, and the sliding rod moves downward under the action of the elastic force of the No. 4 elastic part, so that the suction cup contacts and adsorbs on the surface of the generator fan blade, and then the elastic force of the No. 3 elastic part causes the piston column to move downward, and the air in the sliding groove enters the No. 5 connecting pipe and is discharged outward through the tubular structure. When the lower end of the piston column contacts the bottom surface of the sliding groove, the outer ring side wall of the annular sealing ring is sealed with the inner wall of the sliding groove to prevent external air from entering the suction cup, so that the suction cup remains in the adsorption state; the driving motor drives the No. 3 rotating shaft to rotate in the opposite direction, winds the No. 3 pull rope, moves the piston column upward, and external air enters the suction cup, releasing the adsorption state of the suction cup, and continues to wind the No. 3 pull rope, driving the sliding rod to move upward, so that the suction cup is detached from the surface of the generator fan blade.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0063] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects achieved by the present invention easier to understand, the present invention is further described below in conjunction with specific implementation methods.

[0064] like Figures 1-16 As shown, a wind turbine blade painting device includes a connecting seat 1, a walking mechanism 2, an adsorption mechanism 3, a painting mechanism 4 and a polishing mechanism 5;

[0065] The upper end of the connecting base 1 is fixedly connected to the drone; the lower end of the connecting base 1 is connected to the adsorption mechanism 3; the adsorption mechanism 3 is used to fix the connecting base 1 and the generator fan blade;

[0066] The lower end of the connecting seat 1 is connected to the walking mechanism 2; the walking mechanism 2 is used to drive the connecting seat 1 to move;

[0067] The connecting seat 1 is slidably connected to a sliding seat 61; the sliding seat 61 is slidably connected to a mounting seat 62; the mounting seat 62 and the sliding seat 61 are connected via a first elastic member 63; the mounting seat 62 is connected to a grinding mechanism 5; the grinding mechanism 5 is used to grind the paint-depleted damaged area;

[0068] The sliding seat 61 is connected to the paint spraying mechanism 4; the paint spraying mechanism 4 is used to spray paint on the paint-depleted damaged area;

[0069] The paint spraying device further includes a telescopic mechanism 7 and a lifting mechanism 8; the telescopic mechanism 7 is used to drive the sliding seat 61 to slide; the lifting mechanism 8 is used to drive the mounting seat 62 to slide.

[0070] During operation, the maintenance personnel use the drone to bring the paint spraying device to the vicinity of the paint peeling damage area (the telescopic mechanism 7 drives the sliding seat 61 to move on a cross section of the generator wind turbine blade), and under the action of the gravity of the paint spraying device, the walking wheel 21 of the walking mechanism 2 is in contact with the surface of the generator wind turbine blade (the generator wind turbine blade rotates to a horizontal state and is locked), and then the adsorption mechanism 3 is activated by the controller (the maintenance personnel holds the controller, and a camera is installed on the sliding seat 61, and the camera is connected to the controller signal. The paint peeling damage area can be observed through the display panel of the controller), the adsorption mechanism 3 fixes the connecting seat 1 on the generator wind turbine blade, and then the telescopic mechanism 7 is activated by the controller, and the telescopic mechanism 7 drives the sliding seat 61 to move, so that the sliding seat 61 moves toward the paint peeling damage area. When the grinding wheel 51 of the grinding mechanism 5 (the grinding mechanism 5 includes the grinding wheel 51 and the power mechanism that drives the grinding wheel 51 to rotate) moves above the paint peeling damage area (the paint peeling damage area is parallel to the cross section of the generator wind turbine blade in the width direction, and the other direction is the length direction), the controller is used to activate the lifting mechanism 3. The structure 8 works in the reverse direction, and at the same time, the mounting seat 62 is moved downward under the action of the elastic force of the first elastic member 63, driving the grinding mechanism 5 to move downward, so that the grinding wheel 51 of the grinding mechanism 5 contacts the generator fan blade, and the grinding mechanism 5 is operated by the controller to drive the grinding wheel 51 to rotate, and the local surface of the paint-depleted damaged area is polished, and the sliding seat 61 is driven to move by the telescopic mechanism 7, and the grinding mechanism 5 is driven to move along the width direction of the paint-depleted damaged area to polish the entire surface of the paint-depleted damaged area, completing the polishing work of the paint-depleted damaged area, and then the lifting mechanism 8 is operated forward by the controller, and the lifting mechanism 8 drives the mounting seat 62 to move upward, driving the grinding mechanism 5 to move upward, when the distance between the mounting seat 62 and the sliding seat 61 is the shortest, the grinding wheel 51 is away from the surface of the generator fan blade, and then the paint spraying mechanism 4 is used to spray paint on the local surface of the paint-depleted damaged area, and the sliding seat 61 is driven to move by the telescopic mechanism 7 to drive the paint spraying mechanism 4 to move along the width direction of the paint-depleted damaged area to spray paint on the entire surface of the paint-depleted damaged area, completing the painting work of the paint-depleted damaged area;

[0071] Since the surface of the generator fan blade has a curvature, during the operation of the grinding mechanism 5, the first elastic member 63 exerts a downward force on the mounting seat 62, so that the grinding wheel 51 always contacts the surface of the paint-depleted damaged area, automatically adapting to the curvature of the surface of the generator fan blade (this curvature refers to the curvature on a cross section of the generator fan blade. The curvature in the longitudinal direction is relatively small. The grinding wheel 51 is made of a flexible material and can be appropriately deformed to adapt to the curvature in the longitudinal direction), thereby improving the applicability of the grinding mechanism 5. Before the paint spraying mechanism 4 is operated, the grinding wheel 51 of the grinding mechanism 5 is away from the surface of the generator fan blade to prevent the grinding wheel 51 from contacting the sprayed paint surface, thereby improving the reliability of the paint spraying device.

[0072] When the length of the paint-peeling damaged area is greater than the length of the grinding wheel 51, the grinding wheel 51 cannot complete the grinding of the entire surface in one lateral movement. After the grinding of the area with the length of the current grinding wheel 51 is completed, the controller releases the fixation of the connecting seat 1 by the adsorption mechanism 3, so that the connecting seat 1 can move in the length direction of the paint-peeling damaged area, and the walking mechanism 2 is operated. The walking mechanism 2 drives the connecting seat 1 to move, so that the grinding wheel 51 of the grinding mechanism 5 moves to the top of the unpolished area, and the adsorption mechanism 3 fixes the connecting seat 1, and then grinds the unpolished area until the grinding work of the entire surface of the paint-peeling damaged area is completed, and then the painting mechanism 4 is operated. After the painting mechanism 4 finishes painting the current area, the connecting seat 1 is driven by the walking mechanism 2 to move, so that the painting mechanism 4 moves to the top of the unpainted area, and paints the unpainted area until the painting work of the entire surface of the paint-peeling damaged area is completed. The area where the length of the paint-peeling damaged area is greater than the length of the grinding wheel 51 is polished and painted, thereby improving the applicability of the painting device;

[0073] During polishing and painting, the adsorption mechanism 3 secures the connection seat 1 to prevent it from sliding off the surface of the fan blades, thereby improving the reliability of the painting device. Before the travel mechanism 2 operates, although the controller releases the fixation of the adsorption mechanism 3 on the connection seat 1, allowing the connection seat 1 to move in the longitudinal direction of the paint-depleted damaged area, the adsorption mechanism 3 still maintains the connection between the connection seat 1 and the fan blades, preventing the connection seat 1 from sliding off the surface of the fan blades when the connection seat 1 moves, thereby improving the reliability of the painting device.

[0074] The controller's display panel can be used to observe the paint-peeling damaged area, so that the controller can control the paint spraying device and perform remote control, avoiding manual polishing and painting of the paint-peeling area, improving the efficiency of painting and at the same time improving the safety of painting.

[0078] When spraying paint, the air pump 41 and the second pump body 452 are operated through the controller, and the second switch valve 451 is opened. The gas generated by the air pump 41 enters the paint spray gun 42, and the second pump body 452 allows the paint to enter the paint spray gun 42. Under the action of the gas, the paint is sprayed through the paint spray gun 42 to the surface of the generator fan blade to carry out the painting work; the painting adopts air source spraying, and the spraying is uniform; after the painting is completed, the air pump 41 and the second pump body 452 are stopped, and the second switch valve 451 is closed.

The gas generated by the air pump 41 enters the jet rod 46 and is sprayed downward through the nozzle structure to blow away the dust generated by polishing, clean the surface of the paint-depleted damaged area, improve the adhesion between the paint surface and the bottom surface of the paint-depleted damaged area, and improve the quality of painting; when painting, the No. 3 switch valve 471 is closed, the No. 2 switch valve 451 and the No. 1 switch valve 441 are opened, and the painting work is carried out.

[0086] The second elastic member 33 is symmetrically arranged at both ends of the two outer connecting members 311 ; one end of the second elastic member 33 is fixedly connected to the connecting member 311 ; the other end of the second elastic member 33 is fixedly connected to the connecting seat 1 .

[0087] The maintenance personnel use the drone to bring the paint spraying device to the vicinity of the paint peeling damage, and after the walking wheel 21 is pressed against the surface of the generator wind blade under the action of its own gravity, the controller is used to make all the driving components 32 work in the forward direction, and the driving component 32 drives the sliding rod 313 to move downward, and the sliding rod 313 drives the suction cup 314 to move downward, so that the suction cup 314 is pressed against the surface of the generator wind blade, so that the suction cup 314 is adsorbed on the surface of the generator wind blade, so that all the suction cups 314 are adsorbed on the surface of the generator wind blade, and the two middle rows of suction cups 314 fix the two middle connecting parts 311 on the surface of the generator wind blade (the connecting parts 311 cannot move in the length and width directions. Under the action of the gravity of the paint spraying device, the walking wheel 21 is pressed against the surface of the generator wind blade, and the connecting parts 311 cannot move vertically, which is equivalent to fixing the two middle connecting parts 311 on the surface of the generator wind blade), and fix the connecting base 1 on the surface of the generator wind blade;

[0088] When the connecting seat 1 needs to move, the controller makes the two middle drive components 32 work in the reverse direction. The drive component 32 first releases the adsorption state of the two middle rows of suction cups 314, and then moves the corresponding sliding rod 313 upward to make the two middle rows of suction cups 314 detach from the surface of the power generation wind turbine blades. At this time, the two outer rows of suction cups 314 are still adsorbed on the surface of the power generation wind turbine blades, and the connecting seat 1 forms a sliding connection with the two outer connecting parts 311. Then, the walking mechanism 2 drives the connecting seat 1 to move a certain distance and stop moving. At this time, the No. 2 elastic part 33 at one end of the connecting part 311 is compressed to generate elastic force, and the No. 2 elastic part 33 at the other end is pulled to generate tension. Then, the two middle drive components 32 work forward, first moving the two middle rows of sliding rods 313 downward to make the two middle rows of suction cups 314 detach from the surface of the power generation wind turbine blades. The disk 314 contacts and is adsorbed on the surface of the generator fan blade, fixing the connecting seat 1 on the surface of the generator fan blade, and then the two outer drive components 32 are reversed. The drive component 32 first releases the adsorption state of the two outer rows of suction cups 314, and then moves the corresponding sliding rod 313 upward to disengage the two outer rows of suction cups 314 from the surface of the generator fan blade. Under the action of the No. 2 elastic members 33 at both ends of the connecting member 311, the connecting member 311 is moved toward the middle of the connecting seat 1 until the elastic force of the No. 2 elastic members 33 at both ends is balanced and the connecting member 311 remains stationary. Then, the two outer drive components 32 are made to work forward through the controller, so that the two outer rows of suction cups 314 contact and are adsorbed on the surface of the generator fan blade, and the above work is repeated to drive the connecting seat 1 to move;

[0089] When the connecting seat 1 moves, the two outer rows of suction cups 314 remain adsorbed on the surface of the generator fan blade, preventing the connecting seat 1 from sliding off the surface of the generator fan blade when the connecting seat 1 moves, thereby improving the reliability of the paint spraying device.

[0090] The driving assembly 32 includes a No. 5 connecting pipe 321, a piston rod 322, an annular sealing ring 323, a No. 3 elastic member 324, a No. 3 rotating shaft 325, a driving motor 326, a No. 3 reel 327, a No. 3 pull rope 328 and a No. 4 elastic member 329;

[0091] The upper end of the sliding rod 313 is provided with a sliding groove 3131; a ventilation groove 3132 is provided on the side wall of the sliding groove 3131; the sliding rod 313 is connected to the fifth connecting pipe 321; the upper end of the fifth connecting pipe 321 is connected to the sliding groove 3131; the lower end of the fifth connecting pipe 321 is fixedly connected to the suction cup 314;

[0092] The piston rod 322 is slidably connected in the sliding groove 3131; the lower end of the piston rod 322 is fixedly connected to the annular sealing ring 323; the outer ring side wall of the annular sealing ring 323 is sealed with the inner wall of the sliding groove 3131;

[0093] A limiting structure 3133 is provided at the upper end of the sliding rod 313; a third mounting groove 3221 is provided on the piston column 322; a third elastic member 324 is disposed in the third mounting groove 3221; one end of the third elastic member 324 abuts against the limiting structure 3133; the other end of the third elastic member 324 abuts against the third mounting groove 3221;

[0094] The connecting member 311 is rotatably connected to the third rotating shaft 325; the connecting member 311 is fixedly connected to the driving motor 326; the third rotating shaft 325 rotates synchronously with the rotating shaft of the driving motor 326; the upper end of the fixed cylinder 312 is provided with a third reel 327; the third reel 327 is fixedly connected to the third rotating shaft 325; the third pull rope 328 is wound around the third reel 327; the lower end of the third pull rope 328 is fixedly connected to the piston column 322;

[0095] A fourth elastic member 329 is disposed in the fixing tube 312 ; the upper end of the fourth elastic member 329 abuts against the connecting member 311 ; and the lower end of the fourth elastic member 329 abuts against the limiting structure 3133 .

[0096] A tubular structure 3211 is provided on the No. 5 connecting pipe 321 ; a one-way valve 3212 is fixedly connected to the tubular structure 3211 .

[0097] When the drive assembly 32 needs to work in the forward direction, the controller is used to operate the drive motor 326, which drives the third rotating shaft 325 to rotate forward, drives the third reel 327 to rotate forward, relaxes the third pull rope 328, and moves the sliding rod 313 downward under the elastic force of the fourth elastic member 329 (the elastic force of the fourth elastic member 329 is much greater than that of the third elastic member 324. When the third pull rope 328 is relaxed, the fourth elastic member 329 first extends and the third elastic member 324 remains compressed), so that the suction cup 314 moves downward, so that the suction cup 314 contacts and is adsorbed on the surface of the wind turbine blade (at this time, the elastic force of the fourth elastic member 329 is still greater than that of the third elastic member 324). The elastic force of the elastic member 324 causes the piston rod 322 to move downward, causing the lower end of the piston rod 322 to abut against the bottom surface of the sliding groove 3131. During this process, the air in the sliding groove 3131 enters the No. 5 connecting pipe 321 (the No. 5 connecting pipe 321 is a flexible tube) and is discharged outward through the tubular structure 3211 (the presence of the one-way valve 3212 only allows the air to move in one direction). When the lower end of the piston rod 322 abuts against the bottom surface of the sliding groove 3131, the outer side wall of the annular sealing ring 323 is sealed against the inner wall of the sliding groove 3131, preventing external air from entering the suction cup 314 through the ventilation groove 3132, the sliding groove 3131, and the No. 5 connecting pipe 321, thereby maintaining the suction cup 314 in the suction state.

[0098] When the drive assembly 32 needs to work in reverse, the driving motor 326 drives the third rotating shaft 325 to rotate in the opposite direction, drives the third reel 327 to rotate in the opposite direction, winds the third pull rope 328, resists the elastic force of the third elastic member 324, moves the piston column 322 upward, and makes the upper end of the piston column 322 abut against the limiting structure 3133 (at this time, the elastic force of the fourth elastic member 329 is still greater than the elastic force of the third elastic member 324). At this time, the piston column 322 moves to the top of the ventilation groove 3132. At this time, external air enters the suction cup 314 through the ventilation groove 3132, the sliding groove 3131, and the fifth connecting pipe 321, releases the adsorption state of the suction cup 314, and continues to wind the third pull rope 328, resists the elastic force of the fourth elastic member 329, drives the sliding rod 313 to move upward, drives the suction cup 314 to move upward, and causes the suction cup 314 to detach from the surface of the generator fan blade.

[0099] A spherical groove is formed at the lower end of the sliding rod 313 ; a spherical connecting portion 3141 is formed at the upper end of the suction cup 314 ; and the spherical connecting portion 3141 abuts against the spherical groove.

[0100] The spherical connecting portion 3141 is in contact with the spherical groove, the spherical connecting portion 3141 can rotate, the suction cup 314 can rotate, and the suction cup 314 can be adsorbed on the curved surface of the wind turbine blade, thereby improving the stability of the connecting seat 1 after being fixed.
