In wind turbines, the gearbox is the core component of the drive chain, and its stable operation is crucial to the power generation efficiency of the entire wind power project. The lubricating oil filtration system of the traditional gearbox adopts a combination of filter and oil pump, but due to the limited space in the cabin, such as Figure 1 As shown, the oil pump outlet and the filter inlet are connected by a third oil pipe 15.
