[0002] The variable pitch system of a wind turbine is used to adjust the angle of the blades facing the wind and improve the power generation efficiency. The rotating part of the variable pitch system consists of the outer ring of the variable pitch bearing and the inner ring of the variable pitch bearing. After the surface of the outer ring of the variable pitch bearing is punched, it is assembled with the hub using bolts and nuts.

[0003] At present, after the bolts used for installing the outer ring of the pitch bearing pass through the outer ring of the pitch bearing, the heads of the bolts are located outside the outer ring of the pitch bearing. In the process of tightening the nuts and bolts, two handles are needed to hold the nuts and bolts and twist them to prevent the nuts and bolts from rotating in the same direction. Such installation scheme needs to be improved in terms of operational convenience and installation efficiency. In addition, when adding lubricating oil to the outer ring of the pitch bearing, a hole is generally drilled in the outer ring of the pitch bearing and an oil filling pipe is inserted into the hole. When maintaining the wind turbine, since there are many items to be checked, the oil filling pipe is not stable enough when inserted into the hole and the oil filling is not easy to control, and it needs to be supervised by staff, and the maintenance efficiency is not high enough.

[0010] Furthermore, a sealing cover is rotatably connected to the side of the filling bucket, and the sealing cover is sleeved on the outside of the filling bucket to block debris and prevent the debris from entering the filling bucket.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0012] (1) The hexagonal washer is clamped through the hexagonal mounting hole on the ring body. When the bolt passes through the insertion hole, the head of the bolt is clamped by the hexagonal washer to ensure that the bolt does not rotate. At this time, the nut is screwed to the bolt. When the nut is tightened, the bolt does not rotate, making the installation of the ring body and the wheel hub more convenient.

[0013] (2) By twisting the filling bucket, its movement can be controlled so that the spring can push the sliding block and the valve stem to move. After the valve stem is separated from the support ring, the lubricating oil can flow through the support ring to the inner wall of the ring body, thereby controlling the distance between the valve stem and the support ring and the oil filling speed. During the filling of the lubricating oil, other maintenance points of the wind turbine can be checked to improve the maintenance efficiency of the wind turbine. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0020] Example:

[0021] See also Figure 1-4The utility model provides a technical solution: a pitch carrier ring, comprising a ring body 1, a plurality of insertion holes 3 and a hexagonal mounting hole 4 connected to the insertion hole 3 are arranged on the surface of the ring body 1, a hexagonal washer 2 is arranged inside the hexagonal mounting hole 4, the size of the hexagonal washer 2 corresponds to the size of the head of the bolt, the head of the bolt can be clamped, and the hexagonal washer 2 can prevent the bolt and the ring body 1 from wearing each other;

[0022] Three oil filling pipes 10 are installed on the surface of the ring body 1. A support ring 12 is arranged inside the oil filling pipe 10, and a spring 13 and a sliding block 14 are placed above the support ring 12 in sequence. The sliding block 14 is provided with an oil discharge hole 15. The spring 13 is used to push up the sliding block 14, so that the sliding block 14 can drive the valve stem 11 to move. The lower surface of the sliding block 14 is provided with a valve stem 11 inserted into the support ring 12. When the valve stem 11 blocks the support ring 12, it can prevent the lubricating oil from flowing to the inner wall of the ring body 1. A filling bucket 8 is screwed on the upper end of the oil filling pipe 10. The filling bucket 8 is large in size and can prevent the lubricating oil from dripping to the outside when replenishing the lubricating oil.

[0023] In this embodiment, if Figure 3 As shown, the inner wall of the hexagonal mounting hole 4 is provided with a clamping groove 5, and the surface of the hexagonal gasket 2 is provided with a clamping ring 6, and the clamping ring 6 is connected to the clamping groove 5. After the clamping ring 6 is clamped by the clamping groove 5, the stability of the hexagonal gasket 2 installed in the hexagonal mounting hole 4 can be improved, and when the ring body 1 is moved, the hexagonal gasket 2 can be prevented from falling off.

[0024] In this embodiment, if Figure 4 As shown, the side of the filling bucket 8 is rotatably connected with a cover 9, and the cover 9 is sleeved on the outside of the filling bucket 8. The size of the cover 9 is larger than the filling bucket 8 to prevent impurities from falling directly into the filling bucket 8 and preventing impurities from wearing the ring body 1.

[0025] In this embodiment, if Figure 3 As shown, the inner wall of the hexagonal gasket 2 is provided with an anti-slip strip 7, which is used to clamp the head of the bolt. When the bolt is inserted into the socket 3, it is not easy to loosen or shake.

[0026] In this embodiment, if Figure 2 As shown, the surface of the ring body 1 is provided with three mounting openings 16 , and the three mounting openings 16 are arranged in a triangle shape. The oil filling pipe 10 is connected to the mounting openings 16 , so that the lubricating oil can fully flow to the inner wall of the ring body 1 to fully lubricate the ring body 1 .
