[0045] Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Although exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure are shown in the accompanying drawings, it should be understood that the present disclosure can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited by the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided to enable a more thorough understanding of the present disclosure and to fully convey the scope of the present disclosure to those skilled in the art.

[0046] like Figure 1 As shown, according to the first aspect of an embodiment of the present disclosure, a braking device 10 is proposed, comprising: a support 100 for being arranged on a fan; a brake assembly 200, arranged on the support 100, and the brake assembly 200 has an on state and a off state; in the on state, the execution end 201 of the brake assembly 200 abuts against the rotating shaft 10' of the fan to apply a braking force to the rotating shaft 10'; in the off state, the execution end 201 of the brake assembly 200 is separated from the rotating shaft 10' of the fan; a control assembly, connected to the brake assembly 200, for controlling the brake assembly 200 to start after a delay of a preset time when the fan receives a shutdown command.

[0047] The braking device 10 provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure includes the aforementioned support 100, a braking assembly 200 and a control assembly; wherein, the support 100 can be set on the fan in actual application, so that it can be in a position relatively close to the fan and be installed and fixed by the fan, and the braking assembly 200 is set on the support 100 and can be supported by the support 100; the braking assembly 200 has an execution end 201 and has an on state and a off state. When the braking assembly 200 is in the aforementioned on state, the execution end 201 can abut against the rotating shaft 10' of the aforementioned fan, thereby applying a braking force to the aforementioned rotating shaft 10' to limit the rotation of the aforementioned rotating shaft 10'. When the braking assembly 200 is in the aforementioned off state, the execution end 201 is separated from the aforementioned The rotating shaft 10', thereby the aforementioned braking force and rotation restriction are released; the control component can be connected to the aforementioned brake component 200, and can control the brake component 200 to start after a preset delay when the fan receives a stop command, that is, control the brake component 200 to enter the aforementioned start state; it can be understood that when the fan receives the aforementioned stop command, the fan's motor will stop driving the aforementioned rotating shaft 10', so that the rotation speed of the rotating shaft 10' will gradually decrease. In this case, by controlling the delayed start of the aforementioned brake component 200, the aforementioned execution end 201 can contact the aforementioned rotating shaft 10' and apply braking force to the aforementioned rotating shaft 10' when the rotation speed of the aforementioned rotating shaft 10' decreases to a certain level or reversal occurs.

[0048] Based on the above-mentioned setting, on the one hand, the braking device 10 can automatically brake the fan shaft 10' after the fan stops to limit or prevent the reversal of the fan shaft 10', which is beneficial to the rapid resumption of the fan in subsequent operations. There is no need for operators to disassemble and assemble the limit parts of the fan, which is beneficial to reducing the difficulty of limiting the reversal of the fan and improving operational safety; on the other hand, it can avoid the execution end 201 from contacting the aforementioned shaft 10' when the speed of the fan shaft 10' is high, which is beneficial to reducing the wear of the fan shaft 10' and the execution end 201, extending the service life of the fan shaft 10' and the brake assembly 200, and reducing the repair and maintenance costs of the braking device 10 and the fan.

[0049] It can be understood that, in actual applications, the braking device 10 can be provided on a fan, or used as a component of an air supply device, and the air supply device includes a fan.

[0050] It is understood that the control component and the fan can be signal-connected so that the control component and the fan can synchronously receive the aforementioned shutdown command. The control component and the brake assembly 200 can also be signal-connected so that the control component can send control commands to the brake assembly 200, thereby controlling the operation of the brake assembly 200. For example, the control component can include a delay switch connected to the fan and the brake assembly 200. Upon receiving the aforementioned shutdown command, the delay switch closes after a predetermined delay, allowing the brake assembly 200 to power on and enter the aforementioned startup state.

[0051] It is understandable that the aforementioned preset time length can be set according to actual needs, and no further restrictions are made here. For example, if the time length required for the fan shaft 10' to automatically reduce its speed to 0 when the fan receives the aforementioned shutdown command is used as a reference time length, the aforementioned preset time length may be greater than 0 and less than the aforementioned reference time length, or equal to the aforementioned reference time length, or greater than the aforementioned reference time length; in the case where the aforementioned preset time length is greater than 0 and less than the aforementioned reference time length, the execution end 201 can contact the shaft 10' during the process of the aforementioned shaft 10' speed reduction, and apply a braking force to the shaft 10', thereby braking the shaft 10', speeding up the time required for the shaft 10' speed to reduce to 0, improving the stopping efficiency of the shaft 10', and increasing the speed of the shaft 10'. After it is reduced to 0, the shaft 10' is prevented from reversing; when the aforementioned preset time length is equal to the aforementioned reference time length, the execution end 201 can contact the shaft 10' when the rotation speed of the shaft 10' is 0 or approximately 0, and apply a braking force to the shaft 10', thereby preventing the shaft 10' from reversing; when the aforementioned preset time length is greater than the aforementioned reference time length, the execution end 201 can contact the shaft 10' when the rotation speed of the shaft 10' is 0 or approximately 0, or when the shaft 10' is already in a reversing state, and apply a braking force to the shaft 10', thereby preventing the shaft 10' from reversing or limiting the reversing movement of the shaft 10'.

[0052] like Figure 1 As shown, in some examples, the brake assembly 200 includes: a pneumatic actuator 210 having a ventilation end 203 and an actuator end 201; an electric control valve 220, used to connect or cut off the air supply device and the ventilation end 203; wherein, the electric control valve 220 is connected to the control assembly, and the control assembly is used to control the electric control valve 220 to delay for a preset period of time and then connect the air supply device and the ventilation end 203 when the fan receives a shutdown command.

[0053] In this technical solution, the brake assembly 200 may include the aforementioned pneumatic actuator 210 and the aforementioned electric control valve 220; based on the aforementioned setting, the control assembly can delay the start of the pneumatic actuator 210 by controlling the electric control valve 220 to delay the connection between the pneumatic actuator 210 and the air supply device, so that the aforementioned execution end 201 can contact the aforementioned rotating shaft 10' and apply a braking force to the aforementioned rotating shaft 10' when the rotation speed of the aforementioned rotating shaft 10' is reduced to a certain level or a reversal phenomenon occurs. In addition, by adopting the method of applying a braking force to the aforementioned rotating shaft 10' by the pneumatic actuator 210, the controllability of the aforementioned braking force can be improved, which is beneficial for the execution end 201 to apply a larger braking force to the aforementioned rotating shaft 10', and further improve the limiting effect of the brake device 10 on the reversal of the aforementioned rotating shaft 10'.

[0054] It can be understood that when the electric control valve 220 is connected to the aforementioned air supply device and the aforementioned ventilation end 203, the pneumatic actuator 210 can be connected to the gas output by the air supply device through the electric control valve 220, thereby operating under the drive of the aforementioned gas to enter the aforementioned starting state. Accordingly, the actuator end 201 moves under the drive of the aforementioned gas until it abuts against the rotating shaft 10' and applies braking force to the rotating shaft 10'.

[0055] It can be understood that the aforementioned air supply device can be an air pump.

[0056] It can be understood that, in this technical solution, the control component signal is connected to the electric control valve 220 .

[0057] like Figure 1 As shown, in some examples, the pneumatic actuator 210 includes: a first brake pad 211, formed with an actuator end 201; a shell 212, the shell 212 is formed with a vent end 203; a partition 213, arranged in the shell 212, the first plate side 213a of the partition 213 and the shell 212 form an air cavity 204, the air cavity 204 is connected to the vent end 203, the second plate side 213b of the partition 213 is away from the air cavity 204 and is used to be arranged toward the rotating shaft 10', and the partition 213 is elastically deformable; a first connecting rod 214, passed through the support 100, the first connecting rod 214 is connected between the second plate side 213b and the first brake pad 211, and the first connecting rod 214 is suitable for sliding relative to the support 100 along the arrangement direction of the air cavity 204 and the second plate side 213b.

[0058] In this technical solution, the pneumatic actuator 210 may include the aforementioned first brake pad 211, a housing 212 and a partition 213; based on the aforementioned arrangement, when the electric control valve 220 is connected to the aforementioned vent port 203 and the aforementioned air supply device, the air cavity 204 can be connected to the gas output by the air supply device through the vent port 203. Since the partition 213 has the ability of elastic deformation, as the amount of gas and the air pressure in the air cavity 204 increase, the partition 213 can generate a flow along the air cavity 204 to the aforementioned second plate side 213 under the action of the air pressure. The elastic deformation in the direction of b increases the volume of the air cavity 204. Accordingly, the partition 213 can drive the first brake pad 211 to slide relative to the support 100 along the air cavity 204 to the direction of the aforementioned second plate side 213b through the first connecting rod 214, so that the first brake pad 211 approaches until it abuts the aforementioned rotating shaft 10' to apply braking force to the aforementioned rotating shaft 10', thereby being able to reduce the structural complexity of the brake assembly 200 while achieving braking of the rotating shaft 10', which is beneficial to reducing the use cost of the braking device 10.

[0059] It can be understood that in actual applications, the brake assembly 200 can be switched from the start state to the aforementioned closed state by releasing the pressure in the air cavity 204. Accordingly, the elastic deformation of the partition 213 in the start state will gradually recover as the air cavity 204 is depressurized, and can drive the gas in the air cavity 204 to be discharged during the recovery process, thereby improving the efficiency of the brake assembly 200 in switching from the start state to the aforementioned closed state.

[0060] like Figure 1 As shown, in some examples, the pneumatic actuator 210 also includes: a second brake pad 215, which is formed with a contact end 202, the contact end 202 is arranged opposite to the actuator end 201, and is used to abut the rotating shaft 10'; a mounting seat 216, and the shell 212 is arranged on the mounting seat 216; a second connecting rod 217, which is passed through the support 100, and the second connecting rod 217 is connected between the mounting seat 216 and the second brake pad 215, and the second connecting rod 217 is suitable for sliding relative to the support 100 along the arrangement direction of the air cavity 204 and the second plate side 213b.

[0061] In this technical solution, the pneumatic actuator 210 can also include the aforementioned second brake pad 215, the mounting seat 216 and the second connecting rod 217; based on the aforementioned setting, when the actuator end 201 abuts against the aforementioned rotating shaft 10', if the gas volume and pressure in the air cavity 204 continue to increase, the shell 212 will produce a displacement along the aforementioned second plate side 213b to the air cavity 204 as the volume of the air cavity 204 increases, so that the shell 212 can drive the second brake pad 215 to move along the aforementioned second plate side 213b to the air cavity 204 through the mounting seat 216 and the second connecting rod 217, so that the braking end of the second brake pad 215 is close to the rotating shaft 10' until the contact end 202 contacts the rotating shaft 10', and then the second brake pad 215 can cooperate with the first brake pad 211 to jointly apply braking force to the rotating shaft 10', which is beneficial to improving the braking effect of the braking device 10 on the rotating shaft 10' and reducing the risk of reversal of the rotating shaft 10'.

[0062] It can be understood that the contact end 202 and the execution end 201 are arranged opposite to each other and are used to abut the rotating shaft 10', which means that the contact end 202 and the execution end 201 are respectively located on opposite sides of the rotating shaft 10', and both the contact end 202 and the execution end 201 are facing the rotating shaft 10'.

[0063] like Figure 1 As shown, in some examples, the pneumatic actuator 210 further includes: a first elastic member 218, connected between the mounting seat 216 and the second plate side 213b, and the first elastic member 218 is used to apply an elastic force to the second plate side 213b along the direction from the second plate side 213b to the air cavity 204.

[0064] In this technical solution, the pneumatic actuator 210 can also include the aforementioned first elastic member 218; based on the aforementioned setting, during the process of depressurization of the aforementioned air cavity 204, the first elastic member 218 can push the partition 213 to improve the deformation recovery efficiency of the partition 213, which is conducive to the rapid separation of the first brake pad 211 from the rotating shaft 10', and improves the efficiency of switching the brake assembly 200 from the start state to the aforementioned closed state.

[0065] It can be understood that, in the aforementioned starting state, the elastic deformation amounts of the aforementioned partition 213 and the aforementioned first elastic member 218 are both greater than 0.

[0066] It can be understood that the first elastic member 218 can be a spring.

[0067] like Figure 1 As shown, in some examples, the pneumatic actuator 210 further includes: a second elastic member 219, connected between the second connecting rod 217 and the support 100, and the second elastic member 219 is used to apply an elastic force to the second connecting rod 217 along the air cavity 204 to the second plate side 213b.

[0068] In this technical solution, the pneumatic actuator 210 can also include the aforementioned first elastic member 218; based on the aforementioned setting, during the process of depressurizing the aforementioned air cavity 204, the second elastic member 219 can push the second connecting rod 217 to move along the air cavity 204 to the second plate side 213b, so as to drive the second brake pad 215 away from the aforementioned rotating shaft 10', thereby releasing the rotation restriction of the second brake pad 215 on the rotating shaft 10', which is conducive to the rapid separation of the second brake pad 215 from the rotating shaft 10', providing favorable conditions for the smooth start-up of the fan.

[0069] It can be understood that, when the contact end 202 abuts against the rotating shaft 10 ′, the elastic deformation of the second elastic member 219 is greater than zero.

[0070] It can be understood that the second elastic member 219 can be a spring.

[0071] like Figure 1 As shown, in some examples, the first brake pad 211 includes a first substrate 2111 and a first rubber pad 2112, one side of the first substrate 2111 is connected to the first connecting rod 214, the first rubber pad 2112 is arranged on the other side of the first substrate 2111, and the first rubber pad 2112 is formed with an execution end 201; the second brake pad 215 includes a second substrate 2151 and a second rubber pad 2152, the second substrate 2151 is connected to the second connecting rod 217, the second rubber pad 2152 is arranged on the second substrate 2151, and the second rubber pad 2152 is formed with a contact end 202.

[0072] In this technical solution, the first brake pad 211 may include the aforementioned first substrate 2111 and the aforementioned first rubber pad 2112, and the aforementioned second brake pad 215 may include the aforementioned second substrate 2151 and the aforementioned second rubber pad 2152; based on the aforementioned arrangement, the first brake pad 211 and the second brake pad 215 can contact the rotating shaft 10' through the first rubber pad 2112 and the second rubber pad 2152 respectively, thereby, on the one hand, ensuring that both the executing end 201 and the contact end 202 can generate a large friction force with the rotating shaft 10' to ensure the braking effect on the rotating shaft 10', and on the other hand, it can also avoid rigid contact between the executing end 201 or the contact end 202 and the rotating shaft 10', which is beneficial to further reduce the wear of the rotating shaft 10' and prevent the braking device 10 from damaging the rotating shaft 10' of the fan.

[0073] In some examples, the electrically controlled valve 220 has a first valve port, a second valve port, and a third valve port, the first valve port is connected to the ventilation end 203, the second valve port is used to connect to the air supply device, and the third valve port is used to connect to the atmosphere, and the electrically controlled valve 220 has a first working state and a second working state; in the first working state, the first valve port and the second valve port are connected, and the third valve port is cut off; in the second working state, the first valve port and the third valve port are connected, and the second valve port is cut off; the control component is used to control the electrically controlled valve 220 to operate in the first working state after a preset delay time when the fan receives a shutdown command, or to control the electrically controlled valve 220 to operate in the second working state when the fan receives a start command.

[0074] In this technical solution, the electrically controlled valve 220 may have the aforementioned first valve port, second valve port, and third valve port, and may have the aforementioned first working state and second working state. Based on the aforementioned setting, on the one hand, the control component may control the electrically controlled valve 220 to operate in the first working state after a preset delay when the fan receives a shutdown command, thereby connecting the pneumatic actuator 210 to the air supply device and receiving the gas output by the air supply device. Accordingly, the actuator end 201 may move under the drive of the aforementioned gas until it abuts against the aforementioned rotating shaft 10' and applies a braking force to the aforementioned rotating shaft 10'. On the other hand, the control component may control the electrically controlled valve 220 to operate in the second working state when the fan receives a start command, thereby connecting the pneumatic actuator 210 to the atmosphere. Accordingly, the driving force applied to the actuator end 201 is eliminated, thereby facilitating the separation of the actuator end 201 from the aforementioned rotating shaft 10', so that the brake component 200 switches to the aforementioned closed state and releases the braking force on the rotating shaft 10', providing favorable conditions for the fan to resume operation.

[0075] It is understandable that the aforementioned control component and the aforementioned fan can be connected by signal so that the control component and the fan can synchronously obtain the aforementioned start-up instruction.

[0076] Taking the case where the pneumatic actuator 210 includes the aforementioned housing 212 as an example, when the electric-controlled valve 220 is in the aforementioned first working state, the gas in the air cavity 204 can be connected to the air supply device through the aforementioned first valve port and the second valve port; when the electric-controlled valve 220 is in the aforementioned second working state, the gas in the air cavity 204 can be connected to the atmosphere through the aforementioned first valve port and the third valve port.

[0077] In some examples, the control component is further configured to control the brake component 200 to close when the wind turbine receives a start command.

[0078] In this technical solution, the control component can also be used to control the brake component 200 to close when the fan receives a start-up command; based on the above-mentioned setting, when the fan has a start-up requirement, the brake device 10 can control the brake component 200 to enter a closed state through the control component to release the braking force on the rotating shaft 10', facilitate the rotating shaft 10' to resume operation, and prevent the execution end 201 from rubbing against the rotating shaft 10', which is beneficial to reducing the operating load of the fan.

[0079] According to a second aspect of an embodiment of the present disclosure, an air supply device is proposed, including: a fan; a braking device 10 as proposed in any one of the first aspects above, and a support 100 is arranged on the fan.

[0080] The air supply equipment provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure includes a fan and a brake device 10 as proposed in any one of the first aspects above; the brake device 10 includes the aforementioned support 100, a brake assembly 200 and a control assembly; wherein the support 100 can be set on the fan, so that it can be located relatively close to the fan and be installed and fixed by the fan, and the brake assembly 200 is set on the support 100 and can be supported by the support 100; the brake assembly 200 has an execution end 201 and has an on state and a off state. When the brake assembly 200 is in the aforementioned on state, the execution end 201 can abut against the rotating shaft 10' of the fan, thereby applying a braking force to the rotating shaft 10' to limit the rotation of the rotating shaft 10'. When the brake assembly 200 is in the aforementioned off state, The aforementioned execution end 201 is separated from the aforementioned rotating shaft 10', so that the aforementioned braking force and rotation restriction are released; the control component can be connected to the aforementioned brake component 200, and when the fan receives the shutdown command, it can control the brake component 200 to start after a preset delay, that is, control the brake component 200 to enter the aforementioned startup state; it can be understood that when the fan receives the aforementioned shutdown command, the fan's motor will stop driving the aforementioned rotating shaft 10', so that the rotation speed of the rotating shaft 10' will gradually decrease. In this case, by controlling the delayed start of the aforementioned brake component 200, the aforementioned execution end 201 can contact the aforementioned rotating shaft 10' and apply braking force to the aforementioned rotating shaft 10' when the rotation speed of the aforementioned rotating shaft 10' decreases to a certain level or reversal occurs.

[0081] Based on the above-mentioned setting, on the one hand, the braking device 10 can automatically brake the fan shaft 10' after the fan stops to limit or prevent the reversal of the fan shaft 10', which is beneficial to the rapid resumption of the fan in subsequent operations. There is no need for operators to disassemble and assemble the limit parts of the fan, which is beneficial to reducing the difficulty of limiting the reversal of the fan and improving operational safety; on the other hand, it can avoid the execution end 201 from contacting the aforementioned shaft 10' when the speed of the fan shaft 10' is high, which is beneficial to reducing the wear of the fan shaft 10' and the execution end 201, extending the service life of the fan shaft 10' and the brake assembly 200, and reducing the repair and maintenance costs of the braking device 10 and the fan.

[0082] It can be understood that, in actual applications, the braking device 10 can be provided on a fan, or used as a component of an air supply device, and the air supply device includes a fan.

[0083] It is understood that the control component and the fan can be signal-connected so that the control component and the fan can synchronously receive the aforementioned shutdown command. The control component and the brake assembly 200 can also be signal-connected so that the control component can send control commands to the brake assembly 200, thereby controlling the operation of the brake assembly 200. For example, the control component can include a delay switch connected to the fan and the brake assembly 200. Upon receiving the aforementioned shutdown command, the delay switch closes after a predetermined delay, allowing the brake assembly 200 to power on and enter the aforementioned startup state.

[0084] It is understandable that the aforementioned preset time length can be set according to actual needs, and no further restrictions are made here. For example, if the time length required for the fan shaft 10' to automatically reduce its speed to 0 when the fan receives the aforementioned shutdown command is used as a reference time length, the aforementioned preset time length may be greater than 0 and less than the aforementioned reference time length, or equal to the aforementioned reference time length, or greater than the aforementioned reference time length; in the case where the aforementioned preset time length is greater than 0 and less than the aforementioned reference time length, the execution end 201 can contact the shaft 10' during the process of the aforementioned shaft 10' speed reduction, and apply a braking force to the shaft 10', thereby braking the shaft 10', speeding up the time required for the shaft 10' speed to reduce to 0, improving the stopping efficiency of the shaft 10', and increasing the speed of the shaft 10'. After it is reduced to 0, the shaft 10' is prevented from reversing; when the aforementioned preset time length is equal to the aforementioned reference time length, the execution end 201 can contact the shaft 10' when the rotation speed of the shaft 10' is 0 or approximately 0, and apply a braking force to the shaft 10', thereby preventing the shaft 10' from reversing; when the aforementioned preset time length is greater than the aforementioned reference time length, the execution end 201 can contact the shaft 10' when the rotation speed of the shaft 10' is 0 or approximately 0, or when the shaft 10' is already in a reversing state, and apply a braking force to the shaft 10', thereby preventing the shaft 10' from reversing or limiting the reversing movement of the shaft 10'.

[0085] In addition, since the air supply equipment provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure includes the braking device 10 proposed in any one of the first aspects above, it has all the beneficial effects of the braking device 10, which will not be described in detail here.
