Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of wind power generation, more particularly to a variable pitch mechanism of a small wind turbine generator, a control method and a wind turbine generator. BACKGROUND

[0002] Small wind turbines are widely used in remote areas, off-grid power supply, distributed energy systems and other scenarios. Compared with large wind power, small wind power has higher requirements for cost, reliability and maintenance convenience.

[0003] The variable pitch device plays a key role in the variable pitch system of the wind turbine generator. The wind turbine variable pitch device, through the cabin variable pitch mechanism and the hub variable pitch mechanism, enables the wind turbine blades to be pitched and deflected according to the direction and intensity of the wind, so as to maximize the capture of wind energy and convert it into mechanical energy.

[0004] The patent document with publication number CN109469582A discloses a wind turbine generator variable pitch driving mechanism, a variable pitch method and a wind turbine generator. The variable pitch driving mechanism is used for the blades of the wind turbine generator, the root of the blade is connected with a connecting shaft, and a hob is arranged on the connecting shaft; the variable pitch driving mechanism drives the hob through the gear disc to make the blades pitch synchronously; this scheme can control multiple blades to pitch synchronously through the gear disc, omits the structure of the hub of the wind turbine generator, makes the blade mechanism of the wind turbine generator more reasonable, and improves the service life of the wind turbine generator.

[0005] However, it uses more gears, and during the gear transmission process, due to the meshing and friction between the gears, a certain amount of noise and vibration will be generated, which will affect the overall working environment of the wind turbine; and the wind turbine gear transmission device has high process requirements for the manufacturing and installation of the gears, which will affect the stability and efficiency of the transmission. In addition, during the operation of the wind turbine, the gears are prone to wear, corrosion and fracture.

[0006] Early small wind turbines mostly use fixed pitch or mechanical passive variable pitch (such as centrifugal variable pitch), which has low adjustment accuracy and slow response speed, and is difficult to adapt to complex working conditions. With the development of motor control and reducer technology, the electric variable pitch system has become the mainstream. As a core transmission component, the variable pitch reducer needs to convert the high-speed low-torque output of the motor into low-speed high-torque output to drive the rotation of the blades; at the same time, the connection between the variable pitch reducer and the hub variable pitch structure is also a key link to realize accurate adjustment of the pitch angle in the wind turbine generator.

[0007] The current variable pitch reducer for a fan only plays a role of speed reduction output, the existing worm and gear reducer not only plays a role of speed reduction but also can convert rotation into linear motion, multi-stage series can realize large speed reduction ratio, and is relatively space-saving, but defects are that worm and gear transmission is mainly sliding friction, energy loss is large, transmission efficiency is usually only 50-90%, transmission efficiency is lower when self-locking, and worm and gear wear is fast, needs to be replaced regularly, and needs to additionally increase a mounting adapter when being installed with a generator, and cost increase is easily caused.

The hub 20 is rotationally connected to one end of the generator 18. The motor shaft of the generator 18 is fixedly connected to the hub 20. The hub 20 is provided with a plurality of blade flange shafts 22 rotationally matched with the hub 20. The hub 20 is fixedly connected with the fairing 21 at an end away from the generator 18. The generator 18 is fixedly connected with the variable pitch speed reduction box device 17 at an end away from the hub 20. The plurality of blade flange shafts 22 are uniformly distributed along the circumferential direction of the hub 20. The blade flange shafts 22 are connected with blades. The blades rotate under the action of wind, thereby driving the blade flange shafts 22 and the hub 20 to rotate around the axis of the hub 20, and driving the motor shaft of the generator 18 to rotate, thereby realizing wind power generation.

[0037] The hub 20 and the fairing 21 are provided with a variable pitch device 19 for driving the three blade flange shafts 22 to rotate synchronously to adjust the pitch angle according to the current wind speed, and the variable pitch reduction box device 17 reduces the rotating speed and provides driving force for the variable pitch device 19.

The controller is electrically connected or in communication connection with a variable pitch reduction box device 17, a generator 18 and a variable pitch device 19.
