Description

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of wind power gearboxes, and in particular relates to an asymmetric balance design method and structure for a planetary package of a wind power gearbox. Background Art

[0002] The gearbox in a wind turbine generator is an important mechanical component. Its main function is to transmit the power generated by the wind rotor under the action of wind to the generator and make it obtain the corresponding speed. The supporting columns of the planetary frame of the wind turbine gearbox usually adopt a circularly symmetrical structure, and the column surface adopts an arc or plane structure. With the increase of the torque of the large-megawatt wind turbine gearbox, the diameter of the planetary gear increases, and the supporting columns with arc surfaces gradually appear, causing the last planetary gear to be unable to be installed, or the finite element analysis strength of the flat supporting columns is insufficient. Gradually, arc columns and flat columns are used at the same time, but this will make the stiffness of the planetary frame inconsistent in the circumferential direction, and the deflection angles of the side plates at both ends of each planetary gear mounting shaft hole are different, resulting in inconsistent contact of each planetary gear after the planetary gear is installed, and poor balance, resulting in instability of the planetary package when the whole machine is running.
