[0031] A crane 9 is installed on the connecting platform 1 , and a hoist 10 is installed on the crane 9 . The hoist 10 is bound with the blade 5 through a cable 11 for hoisting.

[0032] The blade 5 is provided with a mounting ring 7 which is larger than the connection opening 6 and plays a role in docking, stopping and aligning.

[0033] The blade 5 is hoisted by a crane 9 and docked with the connecting port 6 of the hub 4. After the blade 5 is installed on the hub 4, the rotating mechanism 3 rotates with the auxiliary mechanism 2 and the hub 4, and the installed blade 5 rotates to the side away from the connecting platform 1, and then the remaining blades 5 are installed on the hub 4 in sequence, so that the blade 5 and the hub 4 are pre-installed. After the pre-installation is completed, the blade 5 is on the expansion platform 8, and the three blades 5 extend toward the sea surface, which will not occupy the platform deck space, thereby solving the problem that the three blades and the hub occupy the platform deck space after pre-installation, affecting the platform deck construction operation.

[0034] The rotating mechanism 3 includes a motor 301 whose shell part is fixed on the expansion platform 8, a first gear 302 is fixed to the output shaft of the motor 301, the first gear 302 is meshed with a second gear 303, a connecting block 305 is fixedly connected inside the second gear 303, and the connecting block 305 is rotatably connected to the expansion platform 8 through a ball bearing 306; a limiting block 304 is fixed at the bottom of the connecting block 305.

[0036] The present application provides a construction method for an offshore wind power expansion platform and impeller combination integrated device, comprising: a hub 4 is installed on an auxiliary mechanism 2 of the offshore wind power expansion platform and impeller combination integrated device, a rotating mechanism 3 drives the hub 4 of the rotating mechanism 3 to rotate in sequence and pre-docking and installing three blades 5, after the pre-installation is completed, the three blades 5 are on an outwardly extending suspended expansion platform 8, at which time the three blades 5 extend toward the sea surface and will not occupy the platform deck space.

[0037] Working principle: When in use, the wheel hub 4 located on the connecting platform 1 is hoisted onto the auxiliary mechanism 2 by the crane 9 using the cable 11, and it is placed well. Then the motor 301 starts to work, driving the first gear 302 to rotate, so that the second gear 303 rotates, and then the connecting block 305 rotates, driving the auxiliary mechanism 2 to rotate, so that the limit ring 204 is connected to the connecting port 6.

At this time, the rotating mechanism 3 controls the auxiliary mechanism 2 to rotate, so that the hub 4 rotates, so that the blade 5 docks with the connecting port 6. At this time, the second hydraulic rod 203 starts to drive the limit ring 204 to shrink, and the first hydraulic rod 202 extends forward to reach the inside of the blade 5. Then the third hydraulic rod 206 starts to extend and abuts against the inner wall of the blade 5. Then the first hydraulic rod 202 shrinks, driving the blade 5 to be inserted into the connecting port 6, and the single blade 5 is assembled. Then the rotating mechanism 3 works, driving the auxiliary mechanism 2 to rotate again, so that the next connecting port 6 and the next blade 5 are docked, and then the assembly of the wind turbine is realized.
