[0037] As can be seen from the above, the working principle is as follows:
[0038] Dynamic test station (X direction): A horizontal vibration or impact load is applied through the dynamic cylinder 501 to simulate the dynamic fatigue characteristics of the blade in a strong wind environment; the dynamic cylinder 501 is flexibly connected through the first ball seat 505 to avoid stress concentration; the first force sensor 503 and the second force sensor 504 respectively monitor the cylinder thrust and the test piece contact force.

[0040] Bending test station (Z direction): The upper support roller 904 is driven by the bending cylinder 901 to apply a vertical pressure to the middle of the test piece, simulating the performance of the blade under bending load; the support seat 802 can be slidably adjusted in span, and the fifth force sensor 902 accurately records the bending force value.
[0041] The XYZ three-way oil cylinders (dynamic cylinder, static cylinder, bending cylinder) are driven by a variable displacement piston pump, and precise load control is achieved through a proportional servo directional valve. The oil circuit has overload protection and power-off unloading functions to ensure test safety.
[0042] The industrial control computer integrates multi-channel sensor data such as pulling force, pressure, deformation, and strain, and real-time displays the static force-displacement curve and the fatigue load time-domain curve, and stores data at a high frequency of 5 ms to ensure the accuracy of the test results.
[0043] The composite test is completed through three stations:
[0044] Apply a horizontal sine wave load to simulate wind vibration; apply a constant vertical load to test the bearing limit; apply a middle pressure to evaluate the bending resistance performance.
[0045] Through the integrated design of three stations (X / Y / Z directions), the composite test of horizontal vibration, vertical static load, and bending load is completed, accurately simulating the multi-directional stress state of the blade in the real environment, and solving the deviation problem of traditional single-direction testing; multi-stage force sensors (503 / 504 / 603 / 604 / 902) realize real-time monitoring and feedback of the load; through the collaborative design of three stations, high-precision sensing technology, and intelligent control system, the efficient and accurate testing of wind turbine blade components under composite loads is realized, significantly improving the authenticity and engineering applicability of the test results, and providing reliable technical support for the research and development and quality verification of large blades.
