DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0040] The possible implementation schemes found in the art are:

[0041] Patent publication number CN116792262A discloses a tower segment transport tooling, an assembly tooling and a tower segment transport and assembly method. The patent includes the following construction steps:

[0042] S1: Install the mounting frame at the end of the tower segment;

[0043] S2: Use lifting equipment to stack the three tower segments with the notches facing upwards and place them on the transport equipment;

[0044] S3: After the tower segments are transported, the first tower segment is placed on the base and the rotating support is connected to the connecting frame;

[0045] S4: sequentially install and rotate the second tower segment and the third tower segment and support and fix the three tower segments with supporting rods;

[0046] S5: Assemble three tower segments.

[0047] Through the above steps, the tower segments are transported in a notch-upward manner. After the tower segments are transported, they can be directly assembled without turning them over, and the tower segments are lifted and rotated using lifting equipment. The tower segments can be assembled without using other driving equipment, thereby greatly reducing the difficulty of transporting and assembling the tower segments and improving the efficiency of transporting and assembling the tower segments.

[0048] When the tower segment begins to rotate, the center of gravity of the tower segment is located on the side of the hanging point close to the base in the vertical direction. As the tower segment continues to rotate, the hanging point and the center of gravity of the tower segment also move accordingly. When the tower segment completes the rotation, the center of gravity of the tower segment is located on the side of the hanging point away from the base in the vertical direction. When the hanging point and the center of gravity converge in the vertical direction, they reach the critical point. When passing the critical point, the tower segment will shake. At this time, the cable is pulled to stabilize the tower segment, thereby making the rotation of the tower segment more stable.

[0049] This patent uses a notch-upward method to transport tower segments. After the tower segments are transported, they can be directly assembled without flipping them. The tower segments are lifted and rotated using lifting equipment. No other driving equipment is needed to assemble the tower segments, thereby greatly reducing the difficulty of transporting and assembling the tower segments and improving the efficiency of transporting and assembling the tower segments.

[0050] This patent uses positioning pins and positioning sleeves to position the second mounting frame of the stacked tower segments, so that the second tower segment is more stably installed on the first tower segment.

[0051] This patent adopts an adjustable support link, rotates a rotating sleeve, and the rotating sleeve drives the two connecting rods to move together in a direction away from each other, so that the support link is pressed against the two mounting frames, thereby making the support effect of the support link better.

[0052] This patent connects the tower segments through independent connecting parts, and can be applied to tower segments of different diameters within a certain range by replacing the connecting parts, thereby improving the utilization rate of other tooling parts.

[0053] Embodiments that can be added to the present invention are:

[0054] A locking pulley is a special pulley that not only has the functions of a normal pulley, but also has a locking mechanism. This design allows the pulley to be fixed in place when needed to prevent it from sliding or rolling. Locking pulleys are usually used in industrial applications that require frequent starting and stopping, or that are subject to large impact loads, such as lifting machinery, conveying equipment, construction machinery, environmental protection equipment, etc.

[0055] The design of a locking pulley usually includes the following parts:

[0056] Pulley body: responsible for the basic function of sliding or rolling.

[0057] Locking Mechanism: Can be manual or automatic and is used to secure the position of the pulley.

[0058] Unlocking mechanism: used to release the locked state and restore the pulley to a sliding or rolling state.

[0059] The locking pulley is a powerful mechanical component. Its locking function makes it play an important role in a variety of application scenarios. Whether in industrial equipment, furniture, doors and windows, etc., the locking pulley can provide stable support and reliable locking function, improving the safety and convenience of equipment.

[0060] The working principle of a motorized tilting spreader generally involves the following key components and steps:

[0061] 1. Motor drive system

[0062] The overturning spreader with motor is usually equipped with a motor, which is the core component that provides power. The motor transmits power to other parts of the spreader through a transmission system (such as gears, chains or belts, etc.) to achieve the overturning action of the spreader.

[0063] 2. Transmission system

[0064] The transmission system converts the rotational motion of the motor into the tipping motion of the spreader. This may include devices such as worm gear reducers and gear boxes, which can change the direction and speed of movement to suit different work requirements.

[0065] 3. Control system

[0066] The control system is used to control the start, stop, speed and direction of the motor. This usually includes controllers, sensors and operator interfaces, which can realize automatic control and remote operation.

[0067] 4. Workflow

[0068] Lifting: First, the hoist is connected to the object through a hook or other connecting device. The motor starts and the object is lifted through the transmission system.

[0069] Flipping: After the object is lifted, the motor continues to work and rotates the hoist around a certain axis through the transmission system, thereby realizing the flipping of the object.

[0070] Positioning: After flipping to the required angle, the motor stops working and the spreader remains in this position until the subsequent operation (such as loading and unloading, processing, etc.) is completed.

[0071] 5. Safety devices

[0072] In order to ensure safe operation, the tilting spreader with motor is usually also equipped with various safety devices, such as limit switches, overload protection devices, emergency stop buttons, etc. These devices can prevent accidents from happening during the operation of the spreader.

[0073] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention.

Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0074] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0075] Reference Figure 1-Figure 15 The present invention provides a method for assembling a three-piece tower of a large wind turbine, comprising the following steps:

[0076] Step 1: transport the first cylinder sheet 1, the second cylinder sheet 2, and the third cylinder sheet 3 to the assembly site;

[0086] According to a further optimization scheme, the two roller brackets 4 in step 2 are symmetrically arranged and are on the same horizontal plane, and the symmetrically arranged fixed pulleys of the roller brackets 4 are installed at one end of the roller brackets 4 away from the ground.

[0087] To further optimize the solution, the fixed pulley is coated with an anti-fouling plastic film.

The length of the inner rod 62 extending out of the outer rod 61 is controlled by the cylinder 65.

[0089] To further optimize the solution, the first cylinder piece 1 in step three is rotated 180° by a flip hanger 5 with a motor, so that the opening of the first cylinder piece 1 faces upward, and the two ends of the bottom surface of the first cylinder piece 1 are respectively placed on the roller bracket 4, and the bottom surface of the first cylinder piece 1 is placed between the two fixed pulleys.

[0090] According to a further optimized solution, the second cylinder sheet 2 in step 4 is rotated 60° by a turning hanger 5 with a motor.

[0091] To further optimize the solution, both ends of the retractable support rod 6 in step five are rotatably connected to the transport bracket 7 on the first cylinder sheet 1 and the transport bracket 7 on the second cylinder sheet 2 respectively.

[0092] To further optimize the solution, both ends of the transport bracket 7 on the third cylinder sheet 3 in step seven are detachably connected to the hook of the crane through slings.

[0093] Reference Figure 1 , preparation work before assembly: transport the first cylinder piece 1, the second cylinder piece 2, and the third cylinder piece 3 to the fan installation site (refer to Figure 1 ), transport brackets 7 are respectively installed at both ends of each tower cylinder segment of the first cylinder segment 1, the second cylinder segment 2, and the third cylinder segment 3.

[0095] Place two roller brackets 4 and place them at the pre-marked positions. Figure 5 , check the horizontality of the two roller brackets 4 (the distance between the two fixed pulleys on the same roller bracket 4 is <50mm). The distance between the two roller brackets 4 is determined according to the lengths of the first cylinder piece 1, the second cylinder piece 2, and the third cylinder piece 3, so that the two ends of the first cylinder piece 1 are respectively between the two fixed pulleys, and the ground height is <100mm; wrap each fixed pulley with an anti-fouling plastic film with a thickness of 10mm to prevent the first cylinder piece 1 and the second cylinder piece 2 from being contaminated. Before each lifting, check whether the plastic film is damaged.

[0096] Each motor-equipped tilting sling 5 is subjected to a tilting test in turn. After the test is successful, the two motor-equipped tilting slings 5 ​​are subjected to a synchronous tilting test. Before hoisting the first barrel 1 and the second barrel 2, the motor-equipped tilting sling 5 is mounted on the transport bracket 7 by means of the first bolt 51, the washer 52, the first flat washer 53, and the first nut 54, and connected to the sling by means of the shackle 55.

[0097] When hoisting the first cylinder sheet 1 or the second cylinder sheet 2, the turning hoist 5 with the motor is connected to the transport bracket 7 by means of the first bolt 51, the washer 52, the first flat washer 53 and the first nut 54 (refer to Figure 6 ), and ensure that the first bolt 51 connecting the tipping sling with motor 5 and the transport bracket 7 has been tightened as required.
