Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of wind power generation equipment, in particular to a brake mechanism for wind power generation. Background Art

[0002] Wind power generation refers to the use of wind power to drive the windmill blades to rotate, and then the speed of rotation is increased by the speed increaser to drive the generator to generate electricity. Wind energy is a clean and pollution-free renewable energy that has been used by people for a long time, such as using windmills to pump water and grind flour. In recent years, with the advancement of technology and the improvement of environmental awareness, wind power generation, as a clean and renewable energy form, has received more and more attention and application.

[0003] At present, most of the existing wind power generation brake mechanisms are disc brakes. Since the size of the brake pad is relatively fixed, the friction area between it and the transmission shaft is small, so the braking force is also small. It may be necessary to use a brake disc with a larger diameter to increase the braking force, resulting in increased use costs. At the same time, the existing brake pads are relatively fixed in installation, resulting in greater wear intensity. Frequent replacement of brake pads also leads to increased costs, causing the practicality of the brake mechanism to decrease. Therefore, we propose a wind power generation brake mechanism to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a brake mechanism for wind power generation, which solves the problem that the existing wind power generation brake mechanism in the prior art has a relatively fixed brake pad size, a small friction area between the brake pad and the transmission shaft, resulting in a small braking force, and personnel need to use a brake disc with a larger diameter to increase the braking force, which increases the cost of use and causes a decrease in the practicality of the brake mechanism.

[0008] A transmission assembly connected to a plurality of brake pads is arranged inside the installation box;

[0009] The inner bottom of the installation box is symmetrically provided with two limiting grooves.

[0010] Preferably, the transmission assembly includes two bidirectional screw rods symmetrically arranged in the installation box, one end of the two bidirectional screw rods are rotatably connected to the adjacent inner wall of the installation box, and a motor is fixedly installed on the inner wall of one side of the installation box, the other end of one of the bidirectional screw rods is transmission connected to the output end of the motor, and the other end of the other bidirectional screw rod is rotatably connected to the inner wall of one side of the installation box.

[0011] Preferably, the transmission assembly also includes screw sleeves sleeved on both ends of the outside of the bidirectional screw rod, and the bottom of the outer rings of the plurality of screw sleeves are fixedly connected to limit rods that are compatible with the limit grooves, and the adjacent side walls of two adjacent limit rods are fixedly installed with damping rods, and the end of the damping rod away from the limit rod is fixedly installed on the outer arc surface of the brake pad.

[0012] Preferably, the transmission assembly further comprises two sprockets symmetrically arranged in the installation box, the interiors of the two sprockets are socketed with the outer middle parts of the two bidirectional screw rods, and the exteriors of the two sprockets are meshedly connected with a chain.

[0013] Preferably, springs are sleeved on the exterior of the plurality of damping rods, and both ends of the plurality of springs are fixedly connected to one side of an adjacent limiting rod and an outer arc surface of an adjacent brake pad.

[0015] The utility model has at least the following beneficial effects:

By limiting the external side of the transmission shaft more comprehensively, the braking area is made larger to achieve the effect of increasing the braking force, thereby reducing the cost of use and improving the practicality of the wind power generation brake mechanism.

[0017] The utility model also has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] The spring and the damping rod can increase the buffering effect, preventing the limit rod from driving the brake pad to move with excessive force, thereby causing greater wear on the drive shaft. At the same time, it can adapt to drive shafts of different diameters to a certain extent, reducing personnel usage costs. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
