Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of installation of offshore wind turbines, and more specifically, to a hoisting device with multi-point balance control for installing offshore wind turbines. Background Art

[0002] Wind power generation is the fastest developing green energy technology in the world. While the construction of onshore wind farms is developing rapidly, people have noticed some limitations in the utilization of onshore wind energy, such as large land occupation area, noise pollution, etc. Due to the rich wind energy resources in the sea and the feasibility of current technologies, the ocean will become a rapidly developing wind power market. With the development and maturity of offshore wind farm technologies, wind power will surely become an important energy source for the sustainable development of China's eastern coastal areas.

[0003] An offshore wind turbine, abbreviated as an offshore wind machine, is a power device that converts wind energy into mechanical work, the mechanical work drives the rotor to rotate, and finally outputs alternating current. A wind turbine generally consists of components such as a wind wheel, a generator (including devices), a yaw device (tail fin), a tower, a speed limit safety mechanism, and an energy storage device. The wind wheel generally consists of a rotor and blades, and the blades capture the wind and transmit the wind power to the rotor axis.

[0004] Offshore wind turbines are mainly installed through an offshore wind power installation ship and the hoisting equipment on the ship. When using the hoisting equipment to hoist the blades, since the blades need to be connected and installed with the rotor to complete the driving of the wind power, it is necessary to ensure that the adjustment angle of the flange threaded holes is aligned with the bolts during hoisting to ensure the effectiveness of the installation. However, in the prior art, the control accuracy of the position adjustment of the blades during hoisting is relatively low, and the control difficulty is relatively large, which is not conducive to the fine adjustment of the installation position of the blades, thereby reducing the construction efficiency.

An oil seal sliding plug is slidably connected in the hydraulic fine-tuning cylinder. A fine-tuning application core cylinder is fixedly connected to the lower end of the oil seal sliding plug. The hydraulic fine-tuning cylinder cooperates with the balance control assembly. By moving the position of the fine-tuning application core cylinder in the hydraulic fine-tuning cylinder, the pulling length of the gravity suspension rope in different point directions is controlled, and then the installation direction of the wind turbine blade is balanced and regulated under the action of the gravity of the wind turbine blade, which not only reduces the control difficulty, but also effectively combines with the wind turbine blade, improving the versatility of hoisting the wind turbine blade.

By connecting the balance control air bag and the hydraulic fine-tuning cylinder through the air pressure regulation thin tube, when the balance control air bag is magnetically regulated, the air pressure balance can be used to assist in regulating the fine-tuning applicable core cylinder. While effectively maintaining the oil pressure regulation of the oil pressure balance component, the action precision and smoothness of the fine-tuning applicable core cylinder are maintained, effectively avoiding the reduction of the adjustability of the fine-tuning applicable core cylinder due to the influence of the gravity of the fan blade.

Please refer to Figure 8 , a plurality of electromagnetic control bars 7043 are fixedly connected to the lower inner wall of the balance control air bag 704, and a plurality of strong magnetic adsorption bars 7044 are fixedly connected to the upper inner wall of the balance control air bag 704. A plurality of magnetic conduction bars 7045 are directly fixedly connected between the electromagnetic control bars 7043 and the strong magnetic adsorption bars 7044.

[0053] Please refer to Figures 4-6 and Figure 8, a counterweight air pressure plate 7041 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the balance control airbag 704, and the counterweight air pressure plate 7041 is slidably connected to the partition oil sealing plate 701. The two ends of the linkage slide bar 703 are fixedly connected between the counterweight air pressure plate 7041 and the counterweight oil pressure plate 702. An air pressure regulating thin tube 7042 that is communicated with it is fixedly connected to the outer end of the balance control airbag 704. The outer end of the air pressure regulating thin tube 7042 penetrates through the multi-chamber regulating cylinder 201 and is matched with the hydraulic fine-tuning assembly 5. The balance control airbag 704 and the hydraulic fine-tuning cylinder 501 are connected through the air pressure regulating thin tube 7042. Then, when the balance control airbag 704 is magnetically regulated, the air pressure balance can be used to assist in regulating the fine-tuning applicable core barrel 503. While effectively maintaining the oil pressure regulation of the oil pressure balance assembly 6, the action accuracy and smoothness of the fine-tuning applicable core barrel 503 are maintained, and the adjustability of the fine-tuning applicable core barrel 503 is effectively prevented from being reduced due to the gravity influence of the fan blade 10. The pulling length of the gravity suspension rope 4 is controlled by using the gravity balance of the fan blade 10 and the oil pressure balance of the oil pressure balance assembly 6. The pulling effectiveness of the gravity suspension rope 4 is maintained by using the air pressure balance of the balance control assembly 7. Then, while effectively ensuring the regulation of the installation position of the fan blade 10, the pulling effectiveness of the gravity suspension rope 4 is effectively maintained, the pulling force on the fan blade 10 is maintained, and the cooperation strength of the hydraulic fine-tuning assembly 5 and the oil pressure balance assembly 6 is improved.

[0054] Please refer to Figures 1-9, when hoisting an offshore wind turbine, the main body 1 of the hoisting equipment is connected to the balance controller 2 through the hook 101. The automatic claw 301 grabs the wind turbine blade 10, and then the wind turbine blade 10 is lifted by the control of the main body 1 of the hoisting equipment and moved to the position where installation is required. When the wind turbine blade 10 is connected to the rotor, the installation position of the wind turbine blade 10 needs to be adjusted to keep the adjustment angle of the flange threaded hole aligned with the bolt. The construction personnel can send an adjustment command to the balance control processing unit in the balance controller 2 through the control terminal of the main body 1 of the hoisting equipment. After receiving the control command, the balance control processing unit processes and converts it, and then conveys the control data to the gravity control unit, so that the gravity control unit adjusts the voltage of the electromagnetic control bar 7043 in the balance control airbag 704, causing the balance control airbag 704 to generate corresponding actions, thereby controlling the corresponding displacement of the fine-tuning applicable core barrel 503, and further facilitating the control of the pulling length of the gravity lifting rope 4. If it is necessary to adjust the displacement amount of the fine-tuning applicable core barrel 503, the balance control processing unit conveys the control data to the pressure relief control unit, so that the pressure relief control unit conducts on-off control of the pressure relief inductance bar 5031 in the fine-tuning applicable core barrel 503, causing the capacity sliding plug 5034 to displace, and relieving the pressure of the balanced hydraulic oil 603 in the oil pressure control tank 601 and the oil pressure equalizing tank 602, thereby changing the displacement amount of the fine-tuning applicable core barrel 503 under a certain flow rate of the balanced hydraulic oil 603. Through the cooperation of the hydraulic fine-tuning assembly 5 and the balance control assembly 7, after the gravity lifting rope 4 is tightened and limited by the gravity of the wind turbine blade 10, the pulling length of the gravity lifting rope 4 can be adjusted by controlling the flow direction of the balanced hydraulic oil 603, thereby effectively realizing the control of the installation position of the wind turbine blade 10, effectively improving the control accuracy of the main body 1 of the hoisting equipment, reducing the control difficulty, improving the construction efficiency, and with the cooperation of multiple multi-point grip sleeves 8, effectively controlling the gravity balance of the wind turbine blade 10 through the multi-point connection method, improving the passability and installation convenience of the wind turbine blade 10;

[0055] When the electromagnetic control bar 7043 is energized, by increasing the current intensity in the electromagnetic control bar 7043, the magnetic force of the electromagnetic control bar 7043 is increased. The magnetic force generated by it and the strong magnetic adsorption bar 7044 are of opposite magnetic poles. The attracting magnetic force will resist the gravity of the limit oil separation ring 7011, causing the counterweight air pressure plate 7041 to move downward, and through the action of the linkage slider 703, pulling the limit oil separation ring 7011 upward, causing the balance control air bag 704 to be compressed, the oil pressure regulation tank 601 to expand, and the oil pressure regulation tank 601 to generate suction, absorbing the balanced hydraulic oil 603 in the oil pressure balance tank 602 and the hydraulic fine-tuning cylinder 501, reducing the pressure of the balanced hydraulic oil 603 on the oil seal sliding plug 502. Under the action of the oil pressure suction, the fine-tuning applicable core cylinder 503 moves upward, shortening the pulling strength of the gravity suspension rope 4, and the balance control air bag 704 continuously contracts, and can convey gas into the hydraulic fine-tuning cylinder 501 through the air pressure distribution thin tube 7042, causing the air pressure to lift the oil seal sliding plug 502, and the fine-tuning applicable core cylinder 503 and the oil seal sliding plug 502 move upward. Through the dual action of air pressure and oil pressure, while shortening the pulling strength of the gravity suspension rope 4, it can also effectively resist the gravity of the fan blade 10, improving the stability of the regulation; after the electromagnetic control bar 7043 is powered off, the magnetic attraction generated by the electromagnetic control bar 7043 on the strong magnetic adsorption bar 7044 disappears. Due to the self-weight of the fan blade 10, a downward pressure will be generated on the fine-tuning applicable core cylinder 503 through the gravity suspension rope 4, causing the fine-tuning applicable core cylinder 503 to move downward, extending the pulling length of the gravity suspension rope 4. At this time, the movement of the fine-tuning applicable core cylinder 503 causes the hydraulic fine-tuning cylinder 501 to generate suction, absorbing the balanced hydraulic oil 603 in the oil pressure balance tank 602 and the oil pressure regulation tank 601, causing the oil pressure regulation tank 601 to contract, the limit oil separation ring 7011 to move downward, pulling the counterweight air pressure plate 7041 through the linkage slider 703, causing the balance control air bag 704 to expand and generate air suction, absorbing the gas in the hydraulic fine-tuning cylinder 501 through the air pressure distribution thin tube 7042, reducing the resistance of the gas in the hydraulic fine-tuning cylinder 501 to the oil seal sliding plug 502, and further improving the movement effect of the fine-tuning applicable core cylinder 503. Using the gravity balance of the fan blade 10 and the oil pressure balance of the oil pressure balance component 6 to control the pulling length of the gravity suspension rope 4, and using the air pressure balance of the balance control component 7 to maintain the pulling effectiveness of the gravity suspension rope 4, thereby effectively ensuring the regulation of the installation position of the fan blade 10 while effectively maintaining the pulling effectiveness of the gravity suspension rope 4, maintaining the pulling force on the fan blade 10, and improving the cooperation strength of the hydraulic fine-tuning component 5 and the oil pressure balance component 6;When the balanced hydraulic oil 603 enters the hydraulic fine-tuning cylinder 501 and squeezes the oil seal sliding plug 502, the energized shrinkage of the pressure relief inductive strip 5031 will cause the capacity sliding plug 5034 and the sealing strip 5035 to slide downward in the fine-tuning applicable core cylinder 503, enabling the balanced hydraulic oil 603 to enter the fine-tuning applicable core cylinder 503, increasing the oil storage capacity of the hydraulic fine-tuning cylinder 501 and the fine-tuning applicable core cylinder 503, and thereby changing the displacement of the fine-tuning applicable core cylinder 503; it should be noted that when hoisting the wind turbine blade 10, the electromagnetic control strip 7043 is in an energized state to maintain the pulling strength of the gravity lifting rope 4 while ensuring the two-way adjustability of the fine-tuning applicable core cylinder 503.
