Description

Technical Field

[0002] The existing variable pitch system test platform uses a converted loading motor, servo drive, energy feedback unit and control system, which requires a large initial investment. After the power of the variable pitch system is increased, it is necessary to reselect a higher power motor and match the servo drive and energy feedback unit, which results in a high upgrade cost.

[0003] At the same time, the existing test platform can only load the variable pitch motor and verify the encoder function, but cannot verify the function of the limit switch and proximity switch.

[0004] With the continuous development of the wind power industry, the construction of low-speed wind farms on land and offshore wind farms requires wind turbines to be equipped with longer blades to improve wind energy capture capabilities. The variable pitch system is also gradually upgraded. The low-power variable pitch system no longer meets the current market requirements. It is replaced by a high-power variable pitch system. During the development process, the high-power variable pitch system has a high technical content and a relatively complex test environment. The traditional test platform cannot meet the test of the high-power variable pitch system, or the traditional test platform needs to re-purchase high-power loading motors and high-power supporting drivers, which is very expensive and no longer meets the production and R&D requirements.

[0005] In order to save resources, reduce the cost of upgrading the test platform, and at the same time ensure the convenience of moving the test bench, it is necessary to design a new type of high-power test platform.
