In order to simplify the disclosure of the present application, the parts and settings of specific examples are described below. Of course, they are only examples, and the purpose is not to limit the present application. In addition, the present application can repeat reference numbers and / or letters in different examples.

[0032] Reference below Figure 1-Figure 6 An auxiliary device 10 for a tower of a wind turbine generator set according to an embodiment of the present application is described.
[0033] It should be noted that the tower 20 of the wind turbine generator set is a load-bearing component in the wind turbine generator set. It mainly plays a supporting role in the wind turbine generator set and absorbs the vibration of the unit. Its stability and safety are crucial to the operation of the wind turbine generator set. The tower 20 usually has multiple parts, such as Figure 1 As shown, two adjacent towers 20 are connected by connecting bolts 40 . Therefore, the connecting bolts 40 , as key connecting parts for fixing the towers 20 of the wind turbine generator set, also play an important role.
[0034] Among them, Figure 1 As shown, one of the two adjacent towers 20 is provided with a flange platform 30. During the hoisting process of the tower 20 of the wind turbine generator set: all the bolts on the connecting flange platform 30 between the upper tower section 20 and the fixed lower tower section 20 are passed from bottom to top through the connecting holes and the gaskets placed on the flange platform 30 of the upper tower section 20, and are pre-fixed by nuts. When applying torque to the nuts or connecting bolts 40, it is usually done manually using a wrench. However, the height of the flange platform 30 at the connection of the tower 20 of the wind turbine generator set is relatively high, which makes the operation difficult and the work efficiency low. At the same time, there are greater safety hazards for workers working at a higher position.
[0035] In this regard, the present application proposes an auxiliary device 10 for the tower of a wind turbine generator set. The auxiliary device 10 for the tower of a wind turbine generator set can realize auxiliary operations on the tightening and tightening torque of the connecting bolts 40, reduce manual labor intensity, improve the torque maintenance quality of the connecting bolts 40, and thus ensure a reasonable pre-tightening force of the connecting bolts 40, improve the bearing capacity of the tower 20, and ensure its safety and reliability. In particular, no manual operation is required, which is conducive to reducing operating difficulty, improving work efficiency and reducing safety hazards.
[0036] like Figure 2 As shown, the auxiliary device 10 for the tower of a wind turbine generator set according to an embodiment of the present application includes: a mounting frame 1, a first adjustment component 2, a second adjustment component 3 and a fastening component 4.
[0037] The mounting frame 1 is suitable for being placed on the flange platform 30, the first adjustment component 2 is slidably mounted on the mounting frame 1 along the first direction, the second adjustment component 3 is mounted on the first adjustment component 2, and the fastening component 4 is connected to the second adjustment component 3. In this way, it is convenient to adjust the position of the fastening component 4 in the first direction through the first adjustment component 2, so that the fastening component 4 can be better aligned with the connecting bolt 40 or nut on the flange platform 30, and then tighten the connecting bolt 40 or nut.
[0038] Further, the second adjustment component 3 is configured to drive the fastening component 4 to move along the second direction. In this way, the second adjustment component 3 can be used to adjust the position of the fastening component 4 in the second direction, so that the fastening component 4 can be better aligned with the connecting bolts 40 or nuts on the flange platform 30, and then the connecting bolts 40 or nuts can be tightened.
[0039] Among them, the second direction is arranged to intersect with the first direction, that is, the adjustment directions of the first adjustment component 2 and the second adjustment component 3 on the fastening component 4 intersect, so that the fastening component 4 can be better aligned with the connecting bolt 40 or the nut, thereby reducing the difficulty of aligning the fastening component 4 with the connecting bolt 40 or the nut.
[0040] Furthermore, if Figure 5 As shown, the fastening assembly 4 includes a fastener 41 and a driving member 42, and the driving member 42 is used to drive the fastener 41 to rotate. For example, the fastener 41 can be a hydraulic wrench, so that the hydraulic wrench can realize the tightening of the connecting bolt 40 or the nut. The driving member 42 can be a hydraulic pump station. The hydraulic pump station and the hydraulic wrench can be connected through a hydraulic oil pipe that transmits hydraulic pressure. In this way, the hydraulic pump station can drive the hydraulic wrench to tighten the connecting bolt 40 or the nut. Therefore, the auxiliary device 10 for the tower of the wind turbine generator set can replace manpower to realize the auxiliary operation of tightening the connecting bolt 40 and tightening torque, reduce the labor intensity of manual labor, improve the torque maintenance quality of the connecting bolt 40, and then ensure the reasonable pre-tightening force of the connecting bolt 40, improve the bearing capacity of the tower 20, and ensure its safety and reliability. In particular, no manual operation is required, which is conducive to reducing the difficulty of operation, improving work efficiency and reducing safety hazards.
[0041] According to the auxiliary device 10 for the tower of a wind turbine generator set in the embodiment of the present application, the mounting frame 1 can be placed on the flange platform 30 at the connection between two adjacent towers 20 of the wind turbine generator set, and then the position of the fastening component 4 can be adjusted by using the first adjustment component 2 and the second adjustment component 3, so that the fastening component 4 can be connected to the connecting bolt 40 on the flange platform 30, and then the connecting bolt 40 can be driven to rotate by the driving member 42 to achieve the auxiliary operation of the tightening and tightening torque of the connecting bolt 40, reduce the labor intensity of manual labor, improve the torque maintenance quality of the connecting bolt 40, and then ensure the reasonable pre-tightening force of the connecting bolt 40, improve the bearing capacity of the tower 20, ensure its safety and reliability, especially, no manual operation is required, which is conducive to reducing the difficulty of operation, improving work efficiency and reducing safety hazards.
[0042] In some embodiments, Figure 3As shown, the mounting frame 1 is provided with a slide rail 111 , the first adjustment assembly 2 includes a slide plate 21 and a pulley 22 , the second adjustment assembly 3 is mounted on the slide plate 21 , the pulley 22 is rotatably mounted on the slide plate 21 , and the pulley 22 is slidably matched with the slide rail 111 .
[0043] Therefore, by setting the skateboard 21, the second adjustment component 3 can be more easily installed on the skateboard 21, which is conducive to reducing the difficulty of connecting the two. The structure of the skateboard 21 is simple, which is conducive to reducing costs. The setting of the pulley 22 allows the skateboard 21 to slide with the slide rail 111, thereby realizing the sliding of the skateboard 21 relative to the mounting frame 1, and the pulley 22 can be rotatably installed on the skateboard 21, so that the pulley 22 can roll in the slide rail 111, thereby reducing the difficulty of sliding cooperation between the pulley 22 and the slide rail 111.
[0044] In some embodiments, Figure 3 As shown, the slide rail 111 includes a first slide rail 1111 and a second slide rail 1112 that are spaced apart from each other, and the pulley 22 includes a first pulley 221 and a second pulley 222. The first pulley 221 and the second pulley 222 are respectively located on two opposite sides of the slide plate 21, and the first pulley 221 is slidably matched with the first slide rail 1111, and the second pulley 222 is slidably matched with the second slide rail 1112.
[0045] For example, the first pulley 221 and the second pulley 222 can be respectively arranged on two opposite sides of the slide plate 21, and the first slide rail 1111 and the second slide rail 1112 are arranged to be spaced apart, so that the opposite sides of the slide plate 21 can slide by the sliding cooperation between the pulley 22 and the corresponding slide rail 111. In this way, by arranging the first pulley 221 to slide with the first slide rail 1111, and the second pulley 222 to slide with the second slide rail 1112, the sliding stability of the slide plate 21 when sliding relative to the mounting frame 1 in the first direction is improved.
[0046] In some embodiments, Figure 3 As shown, an escape space 16 is formed between the first slide rail 1111 and the second slide rail 1112 , and at least a portion of the second adjustment component 3 is inserted into the escape space 16 to be connected with the fastening component 4 .
[0047] Thus, the second adjustment component 3 can be installed using the avoidance space 16 between the first slide rail 1111 and the second slide rail 1112, so that the second adjustment component 3 can be more easily connected to the fastening component 4, and the structure of the second adjustment component 3 and the mounting frame 1 is more compact, which is beneficial to reducing the volume of the auxiliary device 10 for the tower of the wind turbine generator set, thereby realizing the miniaturized design of the auxiliary device 10 for the tower of the wind turbine generator set.
[0048] In some embodiments, Figure 4As shown, the second adjustment assembly 3 includes a fixing frame 31 and an electric push rod 32 .
[0049] The fixing frame 31 is connected to the slide plate 21, and the slide plate 21 is provided with an avoidance hole 211 connected to the avoidance space 16. One end of the electric push rod 32 is fixed to the fixing frame 31 and the other end is passed through the avoidance hole 211 and extends into the avoidance space 16. The other end of the electric push rod 32 is connected to the fastening assembly 4, and the electric push rod 32 is used to drive the fastening assembly 4 to move along the second direction.
[0050] Therefore, by setting the fixing frame 31, the electric push rod 32 can be fixed, thereby enhancing the structural stability of the electric push rod 32. At the same time, by setting the avoidance hole 211, the electric push rod 32 can be prevented from interfering with the slide plate 21, so that the other end of the electric push rod 32 can be inserted into the avoidance hole 211 and extend into the avoidance space 16 to be connected with the fastening component 4, thereby reducing the difficulty of setting the electric push rod 32. At the same time, the inner wall of the avoidance hole 211 can also play a certain limiting role on the electric push rod 32 to ensure the structural stability of the electric push rod 32.
[0051] In some embodiments, Figure 4 As shown, a plurality of screw rods 35 are connected between the fixing frame 31 and the slide plate 21 . The plurality of screw rods 35 are arranged around the electric push rod 32 on the outside of the electric push rod 32 so as to protect the electric push rod 32 on the outside of the electric push rod 32 .
[0052] In some embodiments, Figure 2 As shown, the second adjustment component 3 also includes: a lifting ear 33 and a connecting ring 34 , the connecting ring 34 is connected to the other end of the electric push rod 32 , and the lifting ear 33 is connected between the connecting ring 34 and the fastening component 4 .
[0053] Therefore, by providing the lifting ear 33 and the connecting ring 34 , the other end of the electric push rod 32 can be connected to the fastening assembly 4 through the lifting ear 33 and the connecting ring 34 , so as to reduce the difficulty of connecting the two.
[0054] In some embodiments, Figure 6 As shown, the mounting frame 1 includes a horizontal bracket 11 and a vertical bracket 12, the first adjustment component 2 is installed on the horizontal bracket 11, the horizontal bracket 11 and the vertical bracket 12 are rotatably connected, and the mounting frame 1 has a storage state and an expanded state. In the storage state, the vertical bracket 12 is arranged parallel to the horizontal bracket 11, and in the expanded state, the vertical bracket 12 is perpendicular to the horizontal bracket 11.
[0055] As a result, the mounting frame 1 can be stored when not in use, that is, the mounting frame 1 is in a stored state. At this time, it is easy to reduce the overall volume of the mounting frame 1, which is conducive to reducing the difficulty of storage and reducing the space occupied during storage. At the same time, in the unfolded state, the vertical bracket 12 is perpendicular to the horizontal bracket 11, so that the vertical bracket 12 can support the horizontal bracket 11 to ensure the structural stability of the horizontal bracket 11.
[0056] The mounting frame 1 further comprises a ball pin 14. When in the unfolded state, the ball pin 14 is sequentially passed through the horizontal bracket 11 and the vertical bracket 12 to ensure the relative fixation of the horizontal bracket 11 and the vertical bracket 12, thereby ensuring the structural stability in the unfolded state.
[0057] In some embodiments, the mounting frame 1 also includes an oblique bracket 13, which is rotatably connected between the horizontal bracket 11 and the vertical bracket 12, so that the oblique bracket 13, the horizontal bracket 11 and the vertical bracket 12 form three sides of a triangle, thereby facilitating enhancing the structural stability of the mounting frame 1 when in the unfolded state.
[0058] In some embodiments, Figure 1 As shown, the mounting frame 1 may be provided with a rotatable caster 121, and the caster 121 may be a universal wheel, so that the position of the mounting frame 1 on the flange platform 30 can be adjusted by rotating the caster 121, thereby facilitating the adjustment of the position of the mounting frame 1 on the flange platform 30.
[0059] In some embodiments, in the unfolded state, an operating space is defined between the horizontal support 11 and the vertical support 12, and the fastening assembly 4 is located in the operating space. Therefore, the arrangement of the fastening assembly 4 can utilize the operating space between the horizontal support 11 and the vertical support 12, thereby improving the space utilization rate and making the structure more compact, which is conducive to reducing the volume of the auxiliary device 10 for the tower of the wind turbine generator set, thereby realizing the miniaturization design of the auxiliary device 10 for the tower of the wind turbine generator set.
[0060] At the same time, it is possible to avoid the vertical bracket 12 from blocking the connecting bolts 40 or nuts, thereby ensuring that the fastening assembly 4 can cooperate with the connecting bolts 40 or nuts.
[0061] In some embodiments, Figure 2 As shown, the auxiliary device 10 for the tower of a wind turbine generator set also includes a control device 5, which is electrically connected to the first adjusting component 2, and the control device 5 is used to control the first adjusting component 2 to slide in a first direction, and / or the control device 5 is electrically connected to the second adjusting component 3, and the control device 5 is used to control the second adjusting component 3 to drive the fastening component 4 to move in a second direction, and / or the control device 5 is electrically connected to the driving member 42, and the control device 5 is used to control the driving member 42 to drive the fastener 41 to rotate.
[0062] Therefore, it is convenient to control the movement of the first adjustment component 2 through the control device 5, and / or to control the movement of the second adjustment component 3 through the control device 5, and / or to control the movement of the fastener 41 through the control device 5, thereby reducing the difficulty of operation.
[0063] In some embodiments, the first direction is the horizontal direction and the second direction is the vertical direction. Thus, the position of the fastening assembly 4 can be adjusted in the horizontal direction and the vertical direction so that the fastening assembly 4 can be more accurately aligned with the connecting bolt 40 or the nut, thereby improving the alignment accuracy.
[0064] The following describes a specific embodiment of the auxiliary device 10 for the tower of a wind turbine generator set and its use process according to an embodiment of the present application:

[0066] The slide rail 111 is welded at the middle position just above the mounting frame 1. The second adjustment assembly 3 includes an electric push rod 32, a fixing frame 31, a lifting ear 33 and a connecting ring 34. The telescopic rod of the electric push rod 32 passes through the avoidance hole 211 on the slide plate 21. The fixed end of the electric push rod 32 is connected to the fixing frame 31. The fixing frame 31 is fixed to the slide plate 21 by four screw rods 35. The lifting ear 33 is screwed into the threaded hole of the fastener 41 for lifting the fastener 41.
[0067] The fastening assembly 4 includes a reaction force arm 43, a fastener 41 and a driving member 42. The fastener 41 can be a hydraulic wrench, and the driving member 42 can be a hydraulic pump station that provides pressure. The hydraulic pump station and the hydraulic wrench are connected by a hydraulic oil pipe for conveying hydraulic pressure. The fastening assembly 4 also includes a square drive shaft rotatable in the inner cavity of the hydraulic wrench, a quick locking cover plate and a hexagon socket adapted to the connecting bolt 40.

[0068] The control device 5 includes a remote controller for the electric push rod 32 and a hydraulic remote controller. The remote controller for the electric push rod 32 can control the extension and contraction of the telescopic rod of the electric push rod 32, and the hydraulic remote controller controls the supply and release of torque in the positive and reverse directions of the hydraulic wrench.
[0069] It is worth noting that the auxiliary device 10 for the tower of a wind turbine generator set of the present application can be used during the hoisting process of the tower 20 of the wind turbine generator set, or during the 500-hour maintenance of the wind turbine generator set, or the torque maintenance of the connecting bolts 40 of the tower 20 during the annual maintenance operation.
[0070] In actual use, step one, during the hoisting process of the wind turbine tower 20: all the bolts on the connecting flange platform 30 between the upper tower section 20 and the fixed lower tower section 20 are passed from bottom to top through the connecting holes and the gaskets placed on the flange platform 30 of the upper tower section 20, and pre-fixed with nuts.
