The first tower 1 is connected to the windmill 6, and the two together serve as the moving part. The base 3 and the second tower 2 are fixedly connected, and the two together serve as the basic part for beach fixing. The first tower 1 is driven by the adjusting member 4 to slide relative to the second tower 2 to lift or sink the windmill 6, so as to flexibly adjust and change the height of the first tower 1 and the windmill 6. Compared with the traditional prestressed cable providing a single self-lifting tension, the present invention can reasonably adjust the height of the wind power facility according to the changes in the marine environment, and its operation is simple and the workload is low.
[0026] In some embodiments, see Figures 3 to 6 The first tower 1 includes a first cylinder 11 and a first connecting section 12, the first connecting section 12 is fixedly arranged on a side of the first cylinder 11 close to the second tower 2, and the side of the first cylinder 11 away from the second tower 2 is connected to the windmill 6; the second tower 2 includes a second cylinder 21 and a second connecting section 22, the second connecting section 22 is fixedly arranged on a side of the second cylinder 21 close to the first tower 1, and the side of the second cylinder 21 away from the first tower 1 is connected to the base 3, and the second tower 2 is sleeved on the outside of the first connecting section 12.
[0027] In a specific embodiment, the first tower 1 is configured as an upper steel structure first tower 1. In order to reduce the weight of the upper first tower 1, a steel structure is used to prefabricate the first tower 1. In a specific structural embodiment, the first cylinder 11 is configured as a tubular structure with an outer diameter of 6.5-7.5 meters, a height of 40-60 meters, and a steel thickness of 30-35 mm. The first connecting section 12 is configured as an annular corbel segment with an outer diameter of 8.5-9.5 meters and a thickness of 0.6-0.8 meters.
[0028] In a specific embodiment, the second tower 2 is a reinforced concrete second tower 2; the second cylinder 21 is a conical structure, the outer diameter of the upper top surface is 8000-12000mm, the outer diameter of the lower top surface is 13000-17000mm, the height of the conical tower is 60-80m, and the thickness is 220-280mm. The second connecting section 22 is an annular corbel segment with an inner diameter of 6.5-7.5m and a thickness of 0.6-0.8m.
[0029] The second connecting section 22 is arranged on a moving path of the first connecting section 12 sliding along with the first tower 1 to stop and limit the first connecting section 12 .
[0030] As a preferred embodiment, see Figures 3 to 6 The first connection section 12 is provided with a first prestressed hole 121, and the second connection section 22 is provided with a second prestressed hole 221. The number of the first prestressed holes 121 is the same as the number of the second prestressed holes 221. The first prestressed holes 121 and the second prestressed holes 221 are suitable for being connected by the prestressed tendons 5 to fix the first connection section 12 and the second connection section 22. The first prestressed holes 121 and the second prestressed holes 221 are coaxially arranged. The first connection section 12 has a plurality of first prestressed holes 121 arranged in an annular direction, and the second connection section 22 has a plurality of second prestressed holes 221 arranged in an annular direction. Preferably, the number of both can be set to 12.
[0031] As a further embodiment, the first connecting section 12 and the second connecting section 22 are both configured as annular structures; see Figure 3 A plurality of guide grooves 122 are provided on the first connecting section 12 . The guide grooves 122 are extended in parallel with the axial direction of the first connecting section 12 . The guide grooves 122 and the first prestressed holes 121 are arranged to be spaced apart and avoided.
[0032] See also Figure 6The second tower 2 also includes a stiffening rib 23, which is fixed inside the second cylinder 21. There are multiple stiffening ribs 23, which extend in the axial direction parallel to the second cylinder 21. The stiffening ribs 23 and the guide grooves 122 are configured to slide in correspondence. The multiple guide grooves 122 uniformly arranged along the circumferential direction on the first connecting section 12 slide through the stiffening ribs 23 and the guide grooves 122 to enhance the relative sliding motion accuracy between the first tower 1 and the second tower 2, and ensure the stability and smooth passing ability of the first tower 1 during the lifting process; the provision of multiple stiffening ribs 23 is conducive to increasing the self-strength of the second tower 2, ensuring the structural rigidity, and can play a role in providing a stable support for the first tower 1 and the windmill 6 connected thereto.
[0033] As a preferred embodiment, the width of the guide groove 122 can be set to 80-120 mm, and the width of the stiffening rib 23 can be set to 80-120 mm; the guide groove 122 and the stiffening rib 23 are conformally configured; four guide grooves 122 and four stiffening ribs 23 can be configured correspondingly.
[0034] For the connection between the first tower 1 and the second tower 2: The second connecting section 22 at the top of the second tower 2 is connected to the first connecting section 12 at the bottom of the first tower 1; specifically, after the first tower 1 is lifted to the predetermined position, the first connecting section 12 is at the lower position of the second connecting section 22, and the outer diameter of the tubular structure at the top of the first tower 1 is equal to the inner diameter of the second connecting section 22, both of which are 6.5-7.5m; the outer diameter of the first connecting section 12 is equal to the inner diameter of the conical structure of the second cylinder 21 at this position, both of which are 8.5-9.5m, so that the first tower 1 can be wrapped and fixed by the second tower 2. The first prestressed hole 121 on the first connecting section 12 and the second prestressed hole 221 on the second connecting section 22 are parallel to the axial direction, and the position and size correspond one to one. The second prestressed hole 221 of the second connecting section 22 is anchored and connected with the first prestressed hole 121 of the lower first connecting section 12 through the detachable prestressed tendons 5. When the first tower 1 is being lifted, the guide grooves 122 uniformly arranged along the circumferential direction of the first connecting section 12 form a limiting fit with the stiffening ribs 23 inside the second tower 2, which is beneficial to enhancing the stability of the first tower 1 during the self-lifting process.
[0035] As an exemplary embodiment, the adjusting member 4 is configured as an airbag structure, the airbag structure is arranged at the bottom of the first tower 1, and a flow structure is arranged on the base 3, and the flow structure is suitable for connecting the inner cavity of the second tower 2 with the external seawater environment; the airbag structure is inflated after encountering water, so as to expand and support the first tower 1 so that it can slide upward relative to the second tower 2; the airbag structure is deflated and contracted after the water recedes, so that the first tower 1 can slide downward relative to the second tower 2 under the action of its own weight.
[0036] In a specific embodiment, the airbag structure has an inflation and deflation end and a deformation and expansion end. The airbag structure is equipped with an inflation and deflation control system (not shown in the figure). The inflation and deflation control system is arranged at the inflation and deflation end, and the deformation and expansion end is arranged toward the bottom of the first tower 1. The inflation and deflation control system includes an inflation bottle, a liquid level sensor and an exhaust valve. The inflation bottle is used to inflate the airbag structure. The liquid level sensor is suitable for detecting the water level in the second tower 2. The exhaust valve is used for exhausting the airbag structure to the outside.
[0037] In a specific embodiment, the airbag structure is configured as a cylindrical airbag, which is coaxially arranged with the second tower 2. The first tower 1 is lifted or lowered by the telescopic buoyancy of the cylindrical airbag; wherein the diameter of the cylindrical airbag is equal to the diameter of the upper first tower 1, which can be set to 6.5-7.5 meters.
[0038] Since the size of the buoyancy is determined by the gravity of the discharged water, as the upper thin tower is lifted, the volume of the thin tower below sea level will become smaller and smaller, so that the reduced buoyancy cannot be balanced with the gravity of the thin tower. In order to solve the problem of decreased buoyancy during the lifting process, during the lifting process of the first tower 1, the inside of the cylindrical airbag is continuously inflated to keep the height of the cylindrical airbag consistent with the lifting height of the second tower 2, and keep the total volume of the water discharged by the cylindrical airbag and the second tower 2 unchanged, so that the buoyancy of the first tower 1 is always balanced with its gravity.
[0039] As a preferred embodiment, see Fig. 9 The base 3 includes a bulkhead structure 31 and a floating plate 32. The bulkhead structure 31 and the floating plate 32 are jointly equipped with at least one cabin 33. A connecting hole and a diversion hole are provided on the bulkhead structure 31. The cabin 33 and the inner cavity of the second tower 2 are connected through the connecting hole, and the cabin 33 and the external seawater environment are connected through the diversion hole.
[0040] As a preferred embodiment, see Fig. 9 and Fig.11 The bulkhead structure 31 includes a connecting section 311, a transition section 312 and a side wall section 313. The connecting section 311 is fixedly connected to the second tower 2. The transition section 312 is connected between the connecting section 311 and the side wall section 313. The side wall section 313 and the floating plate 32 are fixedly connected. A connecting hole is provided through the connecting section 311, and at least one connecting hole is provided. A guide hole is provided through the side wall section 313, and at least one guide hole is provided.
[0041] In some embodiments, the connecting section 311 is configured as a circular ring structure, the transition section 312 is configured as a conical cylinder structure, and the side wall section 313 is configured as a circular ring structure.
[0042] As a preferred embodiment, see Fig.10 and Fig.11The bulkhead structure 31 also includes a circular tube wall structure 314 and a partition 315. A connecting section 311 is provided at one end of the circular tube wall structure 314, and the other end of the circular tube wall structure 314 is fixedly connected to the floating plate 32. A plurality of partitions 315 are arranged on the outer circumference of the circular tube wall structure 314 to isolate and form a plurality of cabins 33. The plurality of cabins 33 are arranged in a ring, and any cabin 33 is connected and configured with a connecting hole and a guide hole.
[0043] See also Fig.10 and Fig.11 , six cabins 33 are provided. Taking one of the cabins 33 as an example, the connecting section 311 is provided with a first connecting hole 3111 and a second connecting hole 3112 connected to the cabin 33, and the side wall section 313 is provided with a first guide hole 3131 and a second guide hole 3132 connected to the cabin 33; that is, two small holes are respectively opened in the connecting section 311 at the upper end of each cabin and the side wall section 313 at the side to inject water and drain water, and the six cabins are not connected to each other; in the specific control process, flow valves can be respectively arranged at the first connecting hole 3111, the second connecting hole 3112, the first guide hole 3131 and the second guide hole 3132 to open their respective injection and drainage holes, so as to control the flow rate of water in and out of the tower, and then control the speed of buoyancy change, and finally control the self-lifting and self-sinking speed of the first tower 1.
[0044] In some structural embodiments, the diameter of the connecting hole is set to 200-250 mm, and the diameter of the guide hole is set to 150-200 mm.
[0045] In some structural embodiments, each compartment is separated by a partition 315 with a thickness of 280-320 mm. The partition 315 not only serves to separate the compartments, but also has the function of locally reinforcing the foundation.
[0046] In some structural implementations, the outer diameter of the circular tube wall structure 314 is set to 6.5-7.5m, and the thickness is set to 300-350mm. The circular tube wall structure 314 and the partition 315 together form the skeleton of the bulkhead structure 31 to bear the load transferred by the upper tower structure.
[0047] In some structural embodiments, a floating plate 32 is arranged at the bottom of the base 3, and the floating plate 32 is radially expanded, and its diameter is set to 35-45 meters and its thickness is set to 0.8-1.2 meters; the floating plate 32 can provide additional fluid dynamic inertia for the entire beach landing structure, which is beneficial for the basic structure to maintain stability under flow load and wave load.
[0048] In a specific embodiment, the base 3 is entirely configured as a reinforced concrete structure. The second tower 2 and the base 3 may be connected via a conical transition section 312, and this connection method specifically uses wet splicing to ensure the integrity and compactness between the base 3 and the second tower 2, and prevent seawater from penetrating into or out of the connection between the second tower 2 and the base 3.
[0049] The wind power tower beach foundation provided by the present invention has the following usage method: When the first tower 1 needs to be lifted upward, the connecting holes and the guide holes are opened, and the principle of liquid static equilibrium is used to allow seawater to flow into the second tower 2. The flow rate of water in and out can be controlled by controlling the number of connecting holes and guide holes opened on the base 3. When the buoyancy of the first tower 1 in the water is equal to the magnitude of its own gravity, the first tower 1 can be slowly lifted upward. At this time, since the volume of the first tower 1 in the water is reduced, in order to ensure that the buoyancy it is subjected to remains unchanged, the airbag structure at the bottom of the first tower 1 can be inflated, and the volume of the inflated gas is consistent with the reduced volume of the first tower 1 in the water, thereby ensuring that the first tower 1 is balanced in force. When the first tower 1 is lifted into place, the detachable prestressed tendons 5 are inserted into the prestressed holes of the first connecting section 12 and the second connecting section 22 for anchoring and fixing.
[0050] When the first tower 1 needs to be lowered, the prestressed tendons 5 on the first connecting section 12 and the second connecting section 22 can be disassembled first, and then the gas in the airbag structure can be discharged and released, thereby reducing the buoyancy of the first tower 1, and the speed of air release inside the airbag structure can be controlled to control the sinking speed of the first tower 1. During the lifting and sinking process of the first tower 1, the guide groove 122 and the stiffening rib 23 form an axial limiting guide structure, which is conducive to ensuring the stable lifting and lowering of the first tower 1.
[0051] In order to solve the problem that the existing high pile foundation is not compatible with the topography of the shallow sea, the present invention adopts a multi-chamber gravity beach foundation to replace the high pile foundation. The multi-chamber gravity beach foundation has low construction difficulty, good stability, and can significantly reduce the manufacturing cost of the foundation.
[0052] The wind turbine tower beach foundation provided by the present invention adopts a beach foundation to replace the offshore high pile foundation. Specifically, buoyancy can be used to construct a self-lifting system, and the buoyancy is used to replace the tension of the prestressed cable to achieve the purpose of raising the tower height.
[0053] The wind power tower beach foundation provided by the present invention can reduce the construction cost of the existing wind power foundation structure and improve its stability; it simplifies the self-lifting structure system and establishes a self-lifting system that can be cycled multiple times; under extreme weather conditions, the tower structure is protected by lowering the tower height.
