Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of bearing structures, and in particular to a bearing structure with dual oil circuits for a wind turbine generator. Background Art

[0002] A wind turbine is an electrical device that converts wind energy into mechanical work, which drives the rotor to rotate and ultimately outputs alternating current. A wind turbine generally consists of a wind rotor, a generator (including a device), a stabiliser (tail wing), a tower, a speed limit safety mechanism and an energy storage device. The working principle of a wind turbine is relatively simple. The wind rotor rotates under the action of wind force, and it converts the kinetic energy of the wind into the mechanical energy of the wind rotor shaft. The generator rotates and generates electricity driven by the wind rotor shaft. Broadly speaking, wind energy is also solar energy, so it can also be said that a wind turbine is a heat energy generator that uses the sun as a heat source and the atmosphere as a working medium.

[0003] At present, due to the heavy weight and high speed of the rotor of high-power double-fed asynchronous wind turbines, a three-bearing structure is required when selecting bearings:

[0004] The driving end uses a deep groove ball bearing + cylindrical roller bearing, and the non-driving end uses a cylindrical roller bearing. The two bearings at the driving end share one oil circuit. This single oil circuit structure will cause poor lubrication of the bearing far from the lubrication point, resulting in overheating of the bearing. Summary of the invention

[0005] In view of the deficiencies of the prior art, the present invention provides a wind turbine dual-oil-circuit bearing structure, which overcomes the deficiencies of the prior art and effectively solves the problems of poor bearing lubrication and heating in the dual-bearing structure with a single oil circuit in the prior art.

[0006] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0007] A bearing structure with dual oil circuits for a wind turbine generator comprises a bearing seat, an oil stop ring is arranged on one side of the bearing seat, and an outer bearing cover is connected to the side of the oil stop ring away from the bearing seat, an outer oil slinging ring is connected to the annular inner wall of the outer bearing cover, and a deep groove ball bearing is arranged on one side of the outer oil slinging ring, a retaining ring is fitted on the outer wall of the other side of the outer oil slinging ring, an oil slinging ring is arranged on the side of the deep groove ball bearing away from the outer oil slinging ring, and an inner oil slinging ring is arranged on the inner side of the oil slinging ring, a cylindrical roller bearing is arranged on the side of the inner oil slinging ring away from the deep groove ball bearing, and an inner bearing cover is arranged on one side of the cylindrical roller bearing.

[0008] Preferably, the bearing seat is fixed on the external end cover, and the inner hole of the bearing seat and the cylindrical roller bearing are matched with a small clearance.

[0009] Preferably, a short bolt is screwed on one side of the outer wall of the oil stop ring, and the oil stop ring is connected and fixed to the bearing seat by the short bolt, and an O-ring is installed at the inner hole of the oil stop ring for radial fixation of the deep groove ball bearing.

[0010] Preferably, both ends of the outer wall of one side of the outer bearing cover are threaded with fastening bolts, and the outer bearing cover is connected and fixed to the oil stop ring by the fastening bolts.

[0011] Preferably, the outer oil-slinging ring, the deep groove ball bearing, the inner oil-slinging ring and the cylindrical roller bearing are all heat-shrink-fitted onto a rotating shaft, and the inner bearing cover is mounted on the rotating shaft.

[0012] Preferably, the annular outer wall of the inner bearing cover is screwed with long bolts, and the inner bearing cover is fixed to the bearing seat by the long bolts.

[0013] Preferably, the oil deflector ring is located between the cylindrical roller bearing and the oil stop ring, and the oil deflector ring is axially fixed by a connected compression spring.

[0014] Preferably, an oil filling hole is opened on one side of the annular outer wall of the oil stop ring, and the oil filling hole is connected to a first oil filling channel interconnected with the deep groove ball bearing. A through hole is opened on the other side of the annular outer wall of the oil stop ring, and the through hole is connected to a second oil filling channel interconnected with the cylindrical roller bearing.

[0015] Preferably, an oil drain hole is provided at the bottom end of the annular outer wall of the inner oil slinger ring, and an oil collecting shell is inserted into the bottom end of the oil drain hole.

[0016] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0017] When the deep groove ball bearing is lubricated, the grease enters the deep groove ball bearing through the oil injection hole and along the oil injection channel. When the cylindrical roller bearing is lubricated, the grease enters the cylindrical roller bearing through the hole and along the oil injection channel to lubricate the two bearings. After the grease lubricates the bearings, the waste grease flows into the oil receiving shell through the oil discharge hole. The two bearings are lubricated through their respective oil injection channels, which solves the technical problems of poor bearing lubrication and heating in the existing two-bearing structure with a single oil circuit.
