Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of wind turbine blades, and in particular to a three-section wind turbine blade rain cover and an assembly method thereof. Background Art
[0002] In the field of wind power generation, wind turbine blades are key components for converting wind energy, and their performance and maintenance are directly related to power generation efficiency and operational safety. Wind turbine blades will experience weather conditions such as rain during normal operation. Rainwater can flow into the wind turbine from the gap between the blade root and the main engine guide cover, affecting the normal operation of the wind turbine. In order to solve the problem of rainwater inflow, wind turbine blades must be equipped with rain covers, which have become an important component of wind turbine blades. The wind turbine blade rain covers widely used in the market are mostly integral or segmented designs with complex splicing. Although the integral rain cover guarantees sealing to a certain extent, it is difficult to install, especially when it is used on large wind turbine blades, it requires the help of large lifting equipment, which is costly and inconvenient to operate, and is particularly inconvenient for later maintenance. Although the segmented rain cover is easy to transport and initially install, it is difficult to achieve an ideal sealing effect due to the gaps that often exist at the splicing points. Long-term erosion by rainwater can easily lead to damage to internal components, affecting the performance and service life of the blades. In addition, the existing segmented rain cover design often limits the free rotation of the blades around the pitch axis, affecting the adjustment flexibility and power generation efficiency of the wind power system.
