Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical fields of wind power and mechanical structures, and particularly provides a fan shaft current suppression device based on an insect multi-legged self-cleaning bionic structure. Background Art

[0002] In the variable frequency drive system of a doubly-fed induction wind generator, the common mode voltage of the frequency converter will induce a shaft voltage through the low-impedance path formed by the stray capacitance of the motor, and then generate a shaft current, which will cause early bearing failure. The shaft current will cause surface damage and increased friction of the bearing, thereby increasing the maintenance cost and reducing the operating reliability of the wind turbine unit. The long-term electro-corrosion effect of the shaft current will cause the bearing to fail quickly, trigger the shutdown of the unit, and affect the availability and power generation revenue of the unit.

[0003] Currently, one of the solutions to shaft current is the brush solution. The following documents in the prior art relate to the shaft current brush solution:

[0004] 1. A patent document with the publication number "CN222483932U" and the name "Shaft current conducting brush device and motor". The shaft current brush device includes: a ring body, a plurality of mounting grooves arranged circumferentially, a first opening, a plurality of static charge removal components, etc. The conductive fibers of the static charge removal components extend radially towards the area surrounded by the ring body, and a part of the conductive fibers extends into the area surrounded by the ring body. This patent document has high production efficiency and simple manufacturing process.

[0005] 2. A patent document with the publication number "CN113949221B" and the name "Conductive brush for a conductive device of a motor shaft current protection structure", including a fixed seat, a pressing plate, conductive fibers, a fixing plate, a star-shaped column, a pressing column, a shaping hole, a fixing pressing plate, an assembly hole. The length of the pressing column is greater than the length of the star-shaped column. The middle of the conductive fiber is located in the star-shaped groove, and both ends of the conductive fiber extend out of the star-shaped groove. The structure in this patent document has high strength, the conductive fibers are firmly fixed, and the working performance is stable.

[0006] The shaft current brush solutions in the above prior art have the following problems and current solutions:

[0007] 1. Poor contact problem. Poor contact may lead to an increase in resistance, thereby reducing the power transmission efficiency, and even causing sparks and arcs, which will further damage the motor.

[0008] Regarding the problem of poor contact, current solutions include regular inspections, maintenance, and improvement of the materials (such as using high-conductivity and high-wear-resistant composite materials) and structures of the carbon brushes. Regular inspections and maintenance consume a large amount of manpower and material resources. High-conductivity materials help ensure a high contact conductivity between the carbon brush and the motor shaft. Specific processes and designs are required. Good contact between the carbon brush and the motor shaft can ensure the conductivity effect, and a well-designed carbon brush structure is needed.

[0009] 2. The problem of carbon powder accumulation and inability to self-clean. The accumulation of carbon powder may increase the resistance between motor components, resulting in more heat generation when current passes through, further exacerbating the overheating problem of the motor.

[0010] Regarding the problem of carbon powder accumulation, current solutions include regular cleaning and installing a carbon brush dust collector on the motor. Regular cleaning consumes a large amount of time, manpower, and material resources. The carbon brush dust collector can remove carbon powder inside the motor in real time to avoid its accumulation. However, it cannot eliminate the carbon powder accumulation in devices outside the motor housing.

[0011] In summary, to solve the problems of poor contact and inability to self-clean in the shaft current carbon brush solution, there is an urgent need to develop a new type of fan shaft current suppression device. Summary of the Invention

After the guiding post 23 and the gaps are completely fitted, the first pressing block 11 and the second pressing block 12 fix and press the inner brush 8 tightly.

[0046] The inner brush 8 and the outer brush 9 are both fan-shaped brush structures. The first pressing block 11 and the second pressing block 12 are both fan-shaped structures and jointly press tightly on the upper end of the inner brush 8 after the device is installed. When the device is installed in place, the inner brush 8 is pressed tightly to the inside by the first pressing block 11 and the second pressing block 12. The outer brush is as Figure 7 shown on the outside. When in use, the outer brush 9 contacts the motor rotating shaft 3.

An air outlet is provided on the connecting brush 10 to match the scraping ring chamber 15 to ensure the communication between the air outlet channel 14 and the outside. The inner brush 8, the connecting brush 10, and the outer brush 9 are of an integral structure.

[0048] The middle part of the flange sleeve 13 is connected with an air delivery pipe 17 communicated with the air outlet channel 14. The part of the air outlet channel 14 located inside the scraping ring chamber 15 is a reduced-diameter ventilation chamber 24 that gradually reduces in diameter from the outside to the inside.

[0050] The flange sleeve 13 includes a plurality of limit platforms 27 circumferentially arranged on the outer end surface. The outer brush 9 of each conductive brush 7, each scraper ring bin 15, and each scraper ring 16 are respectively located between adjacent limit platforms 27.

The outer brush 9 extends to the outside of the limit platform 27 toward the side away from the flange sleeve 13 and contacts with the motor shaft 3.

[0051] The connecting assembly also includes a pressing plate located on the inner side of the outer shell 18, the brush ring 6 is pressed between the pressing plates, the flange sleeve 13 is located on the inner side of the pressing plate, a pressing seat 34 and an annular cover are provided on the outer shell 18, and a plurality of clamping blocks 29 are connected to the outer end surface of the brush ring 6. The clamping block 29 is placed on the clamping seat 34 at one end close to the outer shell 18, and the clamping block 29 is clamped on the clamping seat 34 through the annular cover. The loop formed by the motor shaft 3, the conductive brush 7, the brush ring 6, the outer shell 18, the motor end cover 2, and the motor housing 1 allows the voltage to ground the shaft current before forming a path through the motor bearing of the wind turbine generator.

[0052] The pressing sheet includes an upper pressing sheet 19 and a lower pressing sheet 20. The upper pressing sheet 19 and the lower pressing sheet 20 are both provided with a clamping block 29. The upper pressing sheet 19 and the lower pressing sheet 20 include a plurality of sets of matching clamping blocks 29. The brush ring 6 and each set of matching clamping blocks 29 are staggered, which can ensure the connection between the brush ring 6 and the housing 18 and the connection between the clamping block 29 and the housing 18.

The lower annular cover 33 can be understood as a bottom support block of the outer shell 18, and is also a component that presses the lower pressing plate 20 together with the lower pressing platform 31.

[0053] Here’s how it works:

[0054] When the fan generator starts, the common-mode voltage of the frequency converter in the variable-frequency drive system will induce a shaft voltage through the low-impedance path formed by the motor stray capacitance, and then generate a shaft current, leading to early bearing failure. When the fan shaft current suppression device of the present invention is installed, the outer brush 9 in the conductive brush 7 is in direct contact with the motor shaft 3. Before the voltage forms a path through the motor bearing, a loop of motor shaft 3 - conductive brush 7 - brush ring 6 - housing 18 - motor end cover 2 - motor housing 1 will be formed in advance to ground the shaft current, suppressing the phenomenon of electrochemical corrosion of the motor bearing. During the working process, the upper pressing piece 19 and the lower pressing piece 20 clamp the brush ring 6 in the middle to ensure the use stability of the brush ring 6 during the working process.

[0055] During the working process, due to the long-term direct contact between the outer brush 9 in the conductive brush 7 and the motor shaft 3, a large amount of brush powder will be generated. Air enters the air duct 17 through the air intake channel 21, then enters the ventilation chamber 24 in the air outlet channel 14 from the air duct 17, and then enters the scraping ring chamber 15 in the air outlet channel 14. A scraping ring 16 is arranged in the scraping ring chamber 15 at the end of the air outlet channel 14. The entering air will drive the scraping ring 16 to rotate counterclockwise, and the scraping ring 16 will automatically clean the dust accumulated at the proximal end, and the air flow in the air outlet channel 14 will play a role in cleaning the dust at the distal end. The whole process does not require manual active operation.

[0056] The embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described. It can be understood that the above embodiments are exemplary and should not be construed as limitations on the present invention. Those of ordinary skill in the art can make changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations to the above embodiments within the scope of the present invention.
