[0027] The application clamps the blade through the clamping assembly and controls the balance force of the wind rope 7 through the anti-sway assembly, which not only effectively improves the wind-resistant stability at a hundred-meter altitude, but also effectively avoids the swaying risk of the blade caused by wind load at a high altitude.

[0028] Further optimization scheme, the clamp assembly includes a clamp body 13, one end of the clamp body 13 is installed on the beam body platform 1, and the other end of the clamp body 13 is rotatably connected with the middle part of the upper clamp arm 14 and the middle part of the lower clamp arm 16 through the clamp shaft 15. By rotating the middle part of the upper clamp arm 14 and the middle part of the lower clamp arm 16 along the clamp shaft 15, the upper clamp arm 14 and the lower clamp arm 16 can be clamped or loosened.

[0029] Further optimization scheme, the upper clamp arm 14 and the lower clamp arm 16 are arranged in an X shape. Even if the upper clamp arm 14, the lower clamp arm 16 and the clamp shaft 15 form a scissors form opening and closing.

[0030] Further optimization scheme, one end of the upper clamp arm 14 and the lower clamp arm 16 is connected through the clamping drive oil cylinder 18. By controlling the extension length of the piston end of the clamping drive oil cylinder 18, the opening and closing of the upper clamp arm 14 and the lower clamp arm 16 can be effectively controlled.

[0031] Further optimization scheme, the upper clamp arm 14 is provided with an upper clamp jaw 3 at one end away from the clamping drive oil cylinder 18, the lower clamp arm 16 is provided with a lower clamp jaw 2 at one end away from the clamping drive oil cylinder 18, and the upper clamp jaw 3 is arranged opposite to the lower clamp jaw 2. The upper clamp jaw 3 and the lower clamp jaw 2 can effectively clamp the blade.

[0032] Further optimization scheme, one end of the lower clamp arm 16 close to the clamping drive oil cylinder 18 is connected with the beam body platform 1 through the variable pitch drive oil cylinder 17. The spreader reaches the variable pitch function through the variable pitch drive oil cylinder 17, that is, the rotation angle of the lower clamp jaw 2 and the upper clamp jaw 3 clamping the blade can be controlled through the variable pitch drive oil cylinder 17, and the blade can be more accurately connected with the hub in the air.

[0033] That is, after the spreader clamps the blade, the variable pitch drive oil cylinder 17 is extended and retracted to make the blade rotate by plus or minus 5 degrees in the variable pitch direction, so that the blade can be more accurately connected with the hub in the air.

[0034] The clamping drive oil cylinder 18 cooperates with the scissors type clamp assembly to increase the opening degree, and the variable pitch drive oil cylinder 17 adjusts the opening direction, so as to realize the quick unhooking of the blade without damage, and solve the problem of low installation efficiency caused by insufficient opening degree of the clamp and limited variable pitch angle.

[0035] The scissors type clamp assembly of the present application increases the opening degree of the clamp by 30%, improves the unhooking effect by 50%, and reduces the damage rate of the blade to below 0.2%; the hydraulic cylinder replaces the counterweight beam, thereby reducing the weight by 20 tons, shortening the length of the spreader by 14 meters, and reducing the cost of the floating crane by 35%; the hydraulic cylinder has double functions, so that the single mechanism realizes variable pitch rotation (±5°-±0.8°) and torque balance, and the failure points are reduced by 60%; the blade shaking amplitude is reduced by 70% through the anti-shaking assembly, the upper limit of the effective working wind speed is improved to 15 m / s, and the installation efficiency is improved by 40%.

[0039] The electric wind luffing device 4 is controlled by a constant tension automatic control system.

[0040] The constant tension system is a core device in the field of ship engineering for hoisting and recovery operations, and the tension of the steel wire rope or sling is kept constant through closed-loop control technology. Its technical principle includes hydraulic drive control, traction cable dynamics modeling and double solenoid valve coordination mechanism, and meets the requirements of IMO on hoisting impact force limitation. In the hoisting scene, the constant tension system avoids impact load transmission by suppressing swing.

[0041] The constant tension system realizes dynamic tension adjustment based on hydraulic closed-loop control. When the winch motor lifting pressure exceeds the set value, the hydraulic oil flows to the descending oil way through the pilot overflow valve to realize automatic rope release; when the pressure is lower than the threshold value, the oil returns to the oil tank. The constant tension system establishes the differential equation of traction cable dynamics to derive the tension transfer function, and verifies the control accuracy by joint simulation of AMESim and Simulink.

[0042] The wind luffing rope 7 output by the electric wind luffing device 4 is installed on the stable hook on the boom of the crane, the lifting appliance is hoisted by the crane, and the constant tension automatic control system of the electric wind luffing device 4 can automatically control the balancing force of the wind luffing rope 7 under high-altitude wind load conditions, so that the lifting appliance does not swing with the wind and always maintains a stable state, and is not subjected to impact load. The electric wind luffing device 4 is more relaxed and stable during the processes of rope winding and unwinding, the anti-wind stability of the 100-meter-high space is improved, and the risk of blade swing caused by high-altitude wind load is avoided.

[0043] Further optimization scheme, the counterweight assembly includes a generator 8 fixedly connected with the beam platform 1, the generator 8 is electrically connected with a wind luffing control system 5, a hydraulic station 10 and a hydraulic control system 12, and the wind luffing control system 5, the hydraulic station 10 and the hydraulic control system 12 are fixedly connected with the beam platform 1.

[0044] The electric wind luffing device 4 can also be used as a counterweight.

[0045] Further optimization scheme, wind control system 5 and electric fan 4 electrically connected.

[0046] Through the electric fan 4, the wind control system 5, the generator 8, the hydraulic station 10 and the hydraulic control system 12, the load balance of the lifting appliance can be maintained, wherein the generator 8 is used to provide power for the wind control system 5, the hydraulic station 10 and the hydraulic control system 12, the hydraulic station 10 is used to convert mechanical energy into hydraulic energy, so that the hydraulic control system 12 can provide power for the boom driving cylinder 11, the variable pitch driving cylinder 17 and the clamping driving cylinder 18, the wind control system 5 is used to control the constant force contraction of the wind rope 7, and the hydraulic control system 12 is used to receive signals from the operation panel, sensors and the like, and accurately control the operation of the equipment.

[0047] The application is suitable for 100-meter-high hoisting operation of large offshore wind turbine blades.

[0048] The present application increases the opening degree through the scissors type clamp assembly, realizes the quick unhooking of the blade without damage, solves the problem of low installation efficiency caused by insufficient opening degree of the clamp and limited variable pitch angle; at the same time, the hydraulic cylinder integrates the variable pitch and counterweight functions, reduces the weight and cost while expanding the rotation angle to greater than or equal to ± 5 degrees; the anti-sway assembly is carried, the wind stability of 100-meter-high air is improved, and the risk of blade shaking caused by high-altitude wind load is avoided.

[0050] The counterweight function of the traditional counterweight beam is replaced, and the lightweight beam structure is adopted: the rotating counterweight beam at both ends of the beam body is cancelled, and the weight reduction is realized through the mechanical balance of the telescopic device; the total weight of the lifting appliance is reduced by greater than or equal to 20 tons, the length is shortened by 14 meters, and the rated load is increased to 65 tons.
