Thereafter, the electric telescopic rod 21 is extended to make the matching block 22 fit with the upper and lower side walls of the second blade 12, and further fix the second blade 12 in the upper and lower directions, thereby ensuring the overall stability of the telescopic blade during the operation of the wind turbine, further strengthening the connection strength between the first blade 11 and the second blade 12, and improving the safety of the blade during use.

[0068] By collecting real-time wind speed and calculating the target extension length of the second blade 12, automatic control of the extension length of the second blade 12 is achieved. By adjusting the extension length of the second blade 12, the wind turbine is at the optimal efficiency point, thereby improving the power generation efficiency of the wind turbine.

[0070] On the basis of Embodiment 1 or 2, a safety regulation system is further included. The safety regulation system is used to regularly adjust the maximum allowable operating wind speed of the wind power generation device. The safety regulation system calculates the maximum allowable operating wind speed based on the following formula:

[0071] Among them, v f is the maximum allowable operating wind speed; v r is the rated wind speed of the wind turbine; v fq is the maximum allowable operating wind speed obtained in the last calculation; ln is the logarithmic function with e as the base; v s is the average wind speed in the current area; v 0 is the unit wind speed; C p is the wind energy conversion coefficient; ρ is the air density; π is the circumference of a circle; P is the rated power of the wind power generation device; R 1 is the radius of the wind wheel; L 1 is the length of the first blade 11; G is the total weight of the first blade 11 and the second blade 12; A is the cross-sectional area of ​​the second blade 12; e is a natural constant; T is the operating time of the wind power generation device; T m is the expected service life of the wind turbine; g is the acceleration due to gravity.

[0072] In this embodiment, the rated wind speed of the wind power generation device is the wind speed at which the wind power generation device operates at the optimal efficiency point.

[0073] The beneficial effects of the above technical solution are:

[0074] By regularly calculating the maximum allowable operating wind speed of a wind turbine, the rationality of the maximum allowable operating wind speed of the wind turbine is ensured, so that the maximum allowable operating wind speed of the wind turbine matches the actual wind resistance capacity, thereby improving the safety of the operation of the wind turbine.
