Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of wind power bearing manufacturing, specifically relating to a process method for the friction surface of a yaw gear ring. Background Technology
[0002] With the vigorous development and application of wind energy resources both domestically and internationally, the number of wind turbine generators is constantly increasing. High-power yaw bearings, as core components of large wind turbines, determine the operational efficiency and reliability of large wind turbines throughout their entire lifespan through their design and manufacturing precision and quality. Sliding bearings, with their advantages of small radial dimensions, high load-bearing capacity, and low cost, represent an important technological development direction for the wind power industry towards higher power and lower cost in the future. As part of the sliding yaw system, the service life of the friction surface of the yaw gear ring determines the service life of the entire yaw system. Incorrect machining parameters of the friction surface can lead to abnormal vibrations and noises during the operation of the yaw system, severely impacting its service life. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0005] A process for manufacturing the friction surface of a yaw gear ring includes the following steps:
[0006] (1) Semi-finish turning: The friction surface of the yaw gear ring is semi-finish turned using a semi-finish turning tool to remove most of the allowance. The friction surface must meet Ra < 1.25 at the end of the tool feed.
[0007] (2) Finish turning: The friction surface of the yaw gear ring is finished using a precision turning circular cutter at a speed of 10 r / min, a feed rate of 10 mm / min, and a cutting depth of 0.3 mm. The end of the tool feed is required to meet the requirement that the friction surface Ra1.25~2.5 and form uniformly spaced oil reservoirs on the friction surface.
[0008] (3) Roller burnishing: The friction surface of the yaw gear ring is rolled using a special roller burnishing cutter W1270. The feed rate and workpiece speed are controlled by the machine tool. The speed is 10 r / min, the feed rate is 3.3 mm / min, and the cutting depth is 0.15 mm. After the tool passes, a stable stress layer is formed on the friction surface. At the same time, the surface roughness Rz is 1.6~6.3 and the profile length support ratio Rmr (c50%) is ≥60%.
[0009] This invention proposes a process for the friction surface of a yaw gear ring. The above processing method can ensure the quality stability of the friction surface of the yaw gear ring during mass production, guarantee the load-bearing capacity of the yaw gear ring, avoid abnormal vibration and noise during the operation of the yaw system, and improve the service life of the yaw gear ring.
