[0026] Embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail below. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the drawings, where the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the drawings are exemplary only for explaining the present disclosure and should not be construed as limiting the present disclosure. On the contrary, the embodiments of the present disclosure include all changes, modifications, and equivalents falling within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.

[0027] As Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown in the figure, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a cleaning device for the excitation lead of a hydrogenerator, including: a traveling trolley 1, a plurality of brush assemblies 2, a negative pressure recovery assembly 3, and a positive pressure spraying assembly 4. The traveling trolley 1 is used to travel along the inner wall of the rotor shaft of the hydrogenerator in the length direction of the excitation lead, and a cleaning channel is formed between the traveling trolley 1 and the inner wall of the rotor shaft. The excitation lead is located in the cleaning channel. The plurality of brush assemblies 2 are respectively arranged on the traveling trolley 1 and located in the cleaning channel, and the brush assemblies 2 are in contact with the excitation lead. The negative pressure end of the negative pressure recovery assembly 3 is arranged on the traveling trolley 1 and located in the cleaning channel, and the negative pressure recovery assembly 3 is used for negative pressure recovery of the waste chips on the excitation lead. The positive pressure end of the positive pressure spraying assembly 4 is arranged on the traveling trolley 1 and located in the cleaning channel, and the positive pressure spraying assembly 4 is used for spraying a cleaning agent onto the excitation lead.

[0028] It can be understood that since the plurality of brush assemblies 2 are respectively arranged on the traveling trolley 1 and located in the cleaning channel formed between the traveling trolley 1 and the inner wall of the rotor shaft, the brush assemblies 2 can use the movement of the traveling trolley 1 to achieve a comprehensive cleaning of the excitation lead in the cleaning channel. Moreover, since the negative pressure end of the negative pressure recovery assembly 3 is arranged on the traveling trolley 1 and located in the cleaning channel, the negative pressure recovery assembly 3 can perform negative pressure recovery of the waste chips swept off the excitation lead. In addition, since the positive pressure end of the positive pressure spraying assembly 4 is arranged on the traveling trolley 1 and located in the cleaning channel, the positive pressure spraying assembly 4 can spray a cleaning agent onto the excitation lead, thereby cleaning the excitation lead with the cleaning agent.

[0029] Thus, through the cooperation of the traveling trolley 1, the brush assemblies 2, the negative pressure recovery assembly 3, and the positive pressure spraying assembly 4, automatic cleaning of the excitation lead can be achieved, and it has a high cleaning quality and cleaning efficiency, thereby ensuring the high-performance operation of the hydrogenerator.

[0030] It should be noted that in a hydrogenerator, the excitation winding is arranged on the rotor shaft, and the excitation lead (copper bar) is arranged on the inner wall of the rotor shaft through fixing parts such as bolts and is connected to the excitation winding.

[0031] The traveling trolley 1 is used to carry the brush assemblies 2, the negative pressure end of the negative pressure recovery assembly 3, the positive pressure end of the positive pressure spraying assembly 4, etc., and achieve mobile cleaning. The specific type of the traveling trolley 1 can be set according to actual needs and is not limited thereto.

[0032] The brush assemblies 2 are used to clean the excitation lead. The specific type of the brush assemblies 2 can be set according to actual needs and is not limited thereto.

[0033] The negative pressure recovery assembly 3 is used to recover the waste chips on the excitation lead by negative pressure, and the positive pressure spraying assembly 4 is used to spray the cleaning agent onto the excitation lead. The specific types of the negative pressure recovery assembly 3 and the positive pressure spraying assembly 4 can be set according to actual needs, and there is no limitation on this. Among them, the cleaning agent can be alcohol.

[0034] As Figure 1 shown, in some embodiments, the traveling trolley 1 includes: a vehicle body 11, a plurality of wheels 12, a first driving mechanism 13, and a magnetic attraction assembly 14. The vehicle body 11 is provided with a cleaning groove, and the cleaning groove and the inner wall of the rotor shaft are oppositely arranged to form a cleaning channel. The wheels 12 are rotatably arranged on the vehicle body 11, and the plurality of wheels 12 are respectively located on both sides of the cleaning channel. The first driving mechanism 13 is arranged on the vehicle body 11, and the power output end of the first driving mechanism 13 is in transmission connection with the power input end of the wheels 12. The first driving mechanism 13 is used to drive the wheels 12 to rotate. The magnetic attraction assembly 14 is arranged on one side of the vehicle body 11 close to the inner wall of the rotor shaft, and there is a preset suction force between the magnetic attraction assembly 14 and the inner wall of the rotor shaft, so that the wheels 12 are abutted against the inner wall of the rotor shaft.

[0035] It can be understood that since the wheels 12 are rotatably arranged on the vehicle body 11, and the plurality of wheels 12 are respectively located on both sides of the cleaning channel, and the power output end of the first driving mechanism 13 is in transmission connection with the power input end of the wheels 12, the first driving mechanism 13 can drive the wheels 12 to rotate, so as to realize the movement of the vehicle body 11 along the length direction of the excitation lead. And because the magnetic attraction assembly 14 is arranged on one side of the vehicle body 11 close to the inner wall of the rotor shaft, and there is a preset suction force between the magnetic attraction assembly 14 and the inner wall of the rotor shaft, the wheels 12 can be abutted against the inner wall of the rotor shaft, thereby ensuring the stable movement of the vehicle body 11 in the rotor shaft.

[0036] It should be noted that the vehicle body 11 is the main structure of the traveling trolley 1. The specific type of the vehicle body 11 can be set according to actual needs, and there is no limitation on this. For example, the vehicle body 11 is of a U-shaped structure, and the U-shaped groove of the vehicle body 11 is the cleaning groove. The vehicle body 11 can also use a telescopic rod to achieve support and guidance.

[0037] The wheels 12 are used for the vehicle body 11 to move on the inner wall of the rotor shaft. The specific type of the wheels 12 can be set according to actual needs, and there is no limitation on this. For example, the diameter of the wheels 12 is four centimeters, and the wheels 12 can be set to four, and two wheels 12 are arranged on each side of the vehicle body 11.

[0038] The first driving mechanism 13 is used to drive the wheel 12 to rotate. The specific type of the first driving mechanism 13 can be set according to actual needs, and there is no limitation in this regard. By way of example, the first driving mechanism 13 can be a driving mechanism composed of a driving motor and a speed reducer, and the first driving mechanism 13 can drive a small part of the wheels 12, so that a small part of the wheels 12 serve as driving main wheels, and the remaining wheels 12 serve as auxiliary wheels.

[0039] Among them, for the power consumption of the walking trolley 1 and other components, remote power supply can be achieved by the walking trolley 1 dragging a cable, or self-power supply can be achieved by using a vehicle-mounted battery.

[0040] The magnetic attraction assembly 14 is used to adsorb the vehicle body 11 on the inner wall of the rotor shaft to avoid problems such as falling. The specific type of the magnetic attraction assembly 14 can be set according to actual needs, and there is no limitation in this regard.

[0041] In some embodiments, the magnetic attraction assembly 14 includes: a permanent magnet, an electromagnet, and a current adjustment module. The permanent magnet is arranged on one side of the vehicle body 11 close to the inner wall of the rotor shaft, and there is a first suction force between the permanent magnet and the inner wall of the rotor shaft. The electromagnet is arranged on one side of the vehicle body 11 close to the inner wall of the rotor shaft, and there is a second suction force between the electromagnet and the inner wall of the rotor shaft. The current adjustment module is arranged at the power supply end of the electromagnet, and the current adjustment module is used to adjust the current at the power supply end of the electromagnet to control the magnitude of the second suction force.

[0042] It can be understood that since the permanent magnet is arranged on one side of the vehicle body 11 close to the inner wall of the rotor shaft, and there is a first suction force between the permanent magnet and the inner wall of the rotor shaft, and the electromagnet is arranged on one side of the vehicle body 11 close to the inner wall of the rotor shaft, and there is a second suction force between the electromagnet and the inner wall of the rotor shaft, the vehicle body 11 can be adsorbed on the inner wall of the rotor shaft by using the first suction force between the permanent magnet and the inner wall of the rotor shaft and the second suction force between the electromagnet and the inner wall of the rotor shaft, thus ensuring the stable movement of the walking trolley 1. At the same time, since the current adjustment module is arranged at the power supply end of the electromagnet, the current adjustment module can adjust the current at the power supply end of the electromagnet, thereby controlling the magnitude of the second suction force, and further ensuring that the walking trolley 1 can adapt to different driving environments.

[0043] It should be noted that the permanent magnet has a permanent magnetic property, which can provide a continuous adsorption force for the vehicle body 11, and at the same time, it is also convenient to remove the vehicle body 11 from the inner wall of the rotor shaft. The specific type of the permanent magnet can be set according to actual needs, and there is no limitation in this regard. Among them, two permanent magnets can be arranged between the wheels 12 on both sides of the vehicle body 11 respectively.

[0044] When the electromagnet is energized, it has magnetism, and when the power is cut off, it loses magnetism. After being energized, it can provide continuous adsorption force for the vehicle body 11. At the same time, it is convenient to remove the vehicle body 11 from the inner wall of the rotor shaft after the power is cut off. The specific type of the electromagnet can be set according to actual needs, and no limitation is made thereto. Among them, two electromagnets can be provided and arranged between the wheels 12 on both sides of the vehicle body 11 respectively.

[0045] The current adjustment module is used to adjust the current of the electromagnet. The specific type of the current adjustment module can be set according to actual needs, and no limitation is made thereto. By way of example, the current adjustment module can be a power conversion circuit composed of variable resistors or a current adjustment chip.

[0046] In some embodiments, the walking trolley 1 further includes: a backup battery, which is arranged in the vehicle body 11, and the power supply terminals of the backup battery are respectively connected to the power supply terminal of the first driving mechanism 13 and the power supply terminal of the electromagnet.

[0047] It can be understood that, since the backup battery is arranged in the vehicle body 11 and the power supply terminals of the backup battery are respectively connected to the power supply terminal of the first driving mechanism 13 and the power supply terminal of the electromagnet, when the walking trolley 1 cannot obtain power, the backup battery can be used to continue walking, so as to prevent the walking trolley 1 from being stalled inside the rotor shaft due to a fault.

[0048] It should be noted that the backup battery is used for emergency power supply of the walking trolley 1. The specific type of the backup battery can be set according to actual needs, and no limitation is made thereto.

[0049] As Figure 1 shown, in some embodiments, the brush assembly 2 includes: a brush base 21, a flexible tube 22 and a second driving mechanism (not shown in the figure). The brush base 21 is rotatably arranged on the walking trolley 1 and located in the cleaning channel. The flexible tube 22 is detachably arranged on the brush base 21, and the flexible tube 22 abuts against the exciting lead. The second driving mechanism is arranged on the walking trolley 1, and the power output end of the second driving mechanism is connected to the power input end of the brush base 21. The second driving mechanism is used to drive the brush base 21 to rotate.

[0050] It can be understood that since the brush holder 21 is rotatably set on the walking trolley 1 and is located in the cleaning channel, and the flexible tube 22 is detachably set on the brush holder 21, the flexible tube 22 is in contact with the excitation lead, and the power output end of the second drive mechanism is connected to the power input end of the brush holder 21, so that the second drive mechanism can drive the brush holder 21 to rotate, thereby driving the flexible tube 22 to clean the excitation lead, thereby ensuring the cleanliness of the excitation lead. At the same time, the flexibility of the flexible tube 22 itself can cope with obstructions such as bolts on the excitation lead, thereby avoiding damage to the brush assembly 2 while achieving cleaning of the excitation lead. In addition, the detachable structure of the flexible tube 22 on the brush holder 21 facilitates the disassembly, assembly and replacement of the flexible tube 22, thereby making the use of the brush assembly 2 more convenient and less costly.

[0051] It should be noted that the brush holder 21 is used to carry the flexible tube 22. The specific type of the brush holder 21 can be set according to actual needs and is not limited to this. For example, the brush holder 21 can be a seat structure with a rotating shaft, and the rotating shaft of the brush holder 21 is arranged on the vehicle body 11 through a bearing, and the rotating shaft of the brush holder 21 is connected to the second drive mechanism through gears, etc.

[0052] The flexible tube 22 is a flexible structure, which is used to rotate under the drive of the brush holder 21 to clean the excitation lead. The flexible tube 22 has a certain elastic deformation ability. The specific type of the flexible tube 22 can be set according to actual needs and is not limited to this.

[0053] The second driving mechanism is used to drive the brush holder 21 to rotate forward and reverse to achieve the cleaning of the excitation lead by the flexible tube 22. The specific type of the second driving mechanism can be set according to actual needs and is not limited to this. For example, the second driving mechanism can be a driving motor, which is connected to the rotating shaft of the brush holder 21 through a gear.

[0054] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the brush assembly 2 further includes: a delivery channel 23, a rotary joint 24, and a reversing valve 25. The delivery channel 23 passes through the brush holder 21 along the rotational center axis of the brush holder 21 and extends to the surface of the flexible tube 22. The stationary housing of the rotary joint 24 is disposed on the traveling trolley 1, and the rotating inner core of the rotary joint 24 is connected to the end of the delivery channel 23 away from the surface of the flexible tube 22. The first end of the reversing valve 25 is connected to the stationary housing of the rotary joint 24, and the second end of the reversing valve 25 is connected to the negative pressure end of the negative pressure recovery assembly 3. The third end of the reversing valve 25 is connected to the positive pressure end of the positive pressure spray assembly 4. The first and second ends of the reversing valve 25 are connected to each other, so that the negative pressure recovery assembly 3 can negatively recover waste chips on the excitation lead through the delivery channel 23, or the first and third ends of the reversing valve 25 are connected to each other, so that the positive pressure spray assembly 4 can spray cleaning agent onto the excitation lead through the delivery channel 23.

[0055] It can be understood that since the conveying channel 23 penetrates through the brush holder 21 along the rotation center axis of the brush holder 21 and extends to the surface of the flexible tube 22, and the rotating inner core of the rotary joint 24 is connected to one end of the conveying channel 23 away from the surface of the flexible tube 22, and the first end of the reversing valve 25 is connected to the stationary housing of the rotary joint 24, the first end of the reversing valve 25 and the surface of the flexible tube 22 can be connected through the conveying channel 23. At the same time, by setting the rotary joint 24, the rotation of the brush holder 21 is not affected.

[0056] Moreover, since the second end of the reversing valve 25 is connected to the negative pressure end of the negative pressure recovery assembly 3, and the third end of the reversing valve 25 is connected to the positive pressure end of the positive pressure spraying assembly 4, when the first end and the second end of the reversing valve 25 are conducted, the negative pressure recovery assembly 3 can recover the waste chips on the excitation lead through the conveying channel 23 by negative pressure. When the first end and the third end of the reversing valve 25 are conducted, the positive pressure spraying assembly 4 can spray the cleaning agent onto the excitation lead through the conveying channel 23. Thus, through the commutation switching of the reversing valve 25, both the negative pressure recovery assembly 3 and the positive pressure spraying assembly 4 can clean the excitation lead by using the conveying channel 23 integrated in the flexible tube 22.

[0057] It should be noted that the conveying channel 23 is used to be integrated in the brush holder 21 and the flexible tube 22, so as to cooperate with the negative pressure recovery assembly 3 and the flexible tube 22 to achieve negative pressure absorption of waste chips, and cooperate with the positive pressure spraying assembly 4 and the flexible tube 22 to achieve positive pressure spraying of the cleaning agent. The specific type of the conveying channel 23 can be set according to actual needs, and there is no limitation on this. For example, the conveying channel 23 includes a first hole arranged at the central axis of the brush holder 21 and a plurality of second holes arranged in the flexible tube 22.

[0058] The rotary joint 24 is used for conduction during the rotation of the brush holder 21. The rotary joint 24 has a stationary housing and a rotating inner core. The stationary housing and the rotating inner core are arranged to rotate relative to each other and have a sealing structure, which does not affect the rotation of the brush holder 21 during conduction. The specific type of the rotary joint 24 can be set according to actual needs, and there is no limitation on this.

[0059] The reversing valve 25 is used for switching between the passage between the negative pressure end of the negative pressure recovery assembly 3 and one end of the conveying channel 23 away from the surface of the flexible tube 22 and the passage between the positive pressure end of the positive pressure spraying assembly 4 and one end of the conveying channel 23 away from the surface of the flexible tube 22. The specific type of the reversing valve 25 can be set according to actual needs, and there is no limitation on this.

[0060] In some embodiments, multiple brush assemblies 2 are respectively located on one side of the exciting lead wire close to the inner wall of the rotor shaft and on one side of the exciting lead wire close to the traveling carriage 1, and the distance between the brush assembly 2 on the side of the exciting lead wire close to the inner wall of the rotor shaft and the brush assembly 2 on the side of the exciting lead wire close to the traveling carriage 1 is less than the thickness of the exciting lead wire.

[0061] It can be understood that since multiple brush assemblies 2 are respectively located on one side of the exciting lead wire close to the inner wall of the rotor shaft and on one side of the exciting lead wire close to the traveling carriage 1, both sides of the exciting lead wire can be cleaned by using the brush assemblies 2, thus ensuring a high cleaning efficiency and cleaning quality. At the same time, since the distance between the brush assembly 2 on the side of the exciting lead wire close to the inner wall of the rotor shaft and the brush assembly 2 on the side of the exciting lead wire close to the traveling carriage 1 is less than the thickness of the exciting lead wire, the brush assembly 2 on the side of the exciting lead wire close to the inner wall of the rotor shaft and the brush assembly 2 on the side of the exciting lead wire close to the traveling carriage 1 can form a clamping effect on the exciting lead wire, thereby effectively improving the cleaning quality and cleaning efficiency of the brush assembly 2 on the exciting lead wire.

[0062] As Figure 2 shown, in some embodiments, the negative pressure recovery assembly 3 includes: a recovery box 31, a filter screen 32, and a negative pressure device 33. The air inlet end of the recovery box 31 is arranged on the traveling carriage 1 and is located in the cleaning channel. The filter screen 32 is arranged in the recovery box 31, and the filter screen 32 is located between the air inlet end and the air outlet end of the recovery box 31. The air inlet end of the negative pressure device 33 is connected to the air outlet end of the recovery box 31, and the negative pressure device 33 is used to form a negative pressure in the recovery box 31.

[0063] It can be understood that since the air inlet end of the recovery box 31 is arranged on the traveling carriage 1 and is located in the cleaning channel, and the air inlet end of the negative pressure device 33 is connected to the air outlet end of the recovery box 31, the negative pressure device 33 can form a negative pressure in the recovery box 31, thereby realizing the transportation of the waste chips on the exciting lead wire into the recovery box 31. At the same time, since the filter screen 32 is arranged in the recovery box 31 and the filter screen 32 is located between the air inlet end and the air outlet end of the recovery box 31, the filter screen 32 can block the waste chips in the recovery box 31, thereby realizing the collection of the waste chips.
