Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of wind turbine towers, and more specifically, to a horizontal-axis offshore wind turbine tower. Background Art
[0002] The development and construction of offshore wind power generation technology can effectively realize the utilization of new energy. The wind energy on the sea surface can be converted into electrical energy through wind turbines. The continuous wind energy on the sea surface plays a vital role in supplementing the increasingly serious power consumption. The tower is the main load-bearing component of the wind turbine. Its main function is to support the mechanical components and power generation system of the wind turbine, and to withstand the force of the wind wheel and the force of the wind on the tower. Therefore, the installation and service life of the tower are particularly important. The existing public technology number CN220566180U proposes a horizontal-axis offshore wind turbine tower. The horizontal-axis offshore wind turbine tower of the device is provided with a fixing ring, a round hole, a threaded groove, a threaded screw, a fixed bearing, a rainproof shell and a limit rod. The rainproof housing is moved by rotating the threaded screw, and the rainproof housing moves to cover the first flange and the second flange. On rainy days, it can effectively prevent rain and prevent rain from corroding the flange connection, effectively extending the service life of the tower body. The structure is simple and easy to use. With respect to the above-mentioned related technologies, the utility model inventor believes that the following defects still exist: the horizontal-axis offshore wind turbine tower in the comparative literature uses a cover to cover the flange bolts. Although it can block rain, the humid air accompanied by salt on the sea surface will also seriously corrode the flange bolts. The tower body is installed in the sea and only relies on three supporting components. It is difficult to limit and float on the sea surface. The stability is low and needs to be improved. In view of this, we propose a horizontal-axis offshore wind turbine tower. Utility Model Content
