[0043] Wind power generation technology is a clean and renewable energy source. Offshore wind resources are abundant and have less impact on the environment, so offshore wind power generation technology has become a hot spot for research and application. The foundation forms of offshore wind turbine components are divided into fixed foundations and floating foundations. Fixed foundations are mainly aimed at shallow offshore waters, and can use single piles, multiple piles or jacket foundations, which have a greater impact on fisheries and the environment. Its installation requires a special self-elevating platform or a large floating crane. These large marine engineering equipment are expensive and will greatly increase the cost of offshore wind power. Floating foundations are more suitable for the use of wind turbine foundations in deep sea areas. However, in related technologies, the floating foundation has a large structural weight and a complex structure, resulting in high costs.

[0044] In order to solve the problem that the floating foundation in the related art has a heavy structural weight, a complex structure and a high cost, a floating device and a wind turbine generator set are proposed.

The tower 200 is connected to the floating device 100, the nacelle 300 is arranged at the top of the tower 200, and the generator is arranged in the nacelle 300.

The impeller 400 includes a hub 410 and a plurality of blades 420 connected to the hub 410. The impeller 400 is connected to the rotor of the generator through its hub 410. When the wind acts on the blades 420, the entire impeller 400 and the rotor of the generator are driven to rotate relative to the stator, thereby meeting the power generation requirements of the wind turbine generator set.

The rotating body 130 includes a first floating body 131 and a rotating part 132, the first floating body 131 is connected to the second end 122, and the rotating part 132 is arranged on the first floating body 131 and is configured to be rotatably connected to the turret 520 of the mooring system 500.

[0048] The structure of the first connecting member 120 may include a columnar structure, a plate-like structure, a hollow frame structure, etc., and is mainly used to connect the floating body 110 with the first floating body 131 .

[0049] The rotating part 132 is configured to be rotatably connected to the turret 520 of the mooring system 500, which means that the rotating part 132 can rotate around the turret 520, and due to the weather vane effect, the floating device 100 will be moored at the orientation with the smallest environmental force.

[0050] The rotating part 132 includes but is not limited to a protrusion or a groove arranged on the first floating body 131. The floating body device 100 provided in one embodiment of the present application includes a floating body 110, a first connecting member 120 and a rotating body 130. The floating body 110 can be used to support the tower 200 to ensure the support requirements of other components of the wind turbine generator set.

Since the rotating body 130 includes the first floating body 131 and the rotating part 132, the rotating part 132 is arranged on the first floating body 131. The buoy 131 is configured to be rotatably connected to the turret 520 of the mooring system 500, which can improve the movement performance of the floating device 100, so that the floating device 100 can drive the tower 200 and the supported impeller 400 to rotate to a position facing the wind under the influence of external environment such as external force of the equipment or wind energy, thereby ensuring the yaw requirement of the wind turbine and reducing the dependence of the wind turbine on the yaw system. Therefore, the structural setting of the yaw system can be omitted or the startup of the yaw system can be reduced, thereby further reducing the cost of the wind turbine components and improving the economic benefits of the entire wind turbine.

[0051] In some embodiments, the rotating portion 132 includes one of a cavity and a protrusion disposed on the first floating body 131 .

[0052] Optionally, if the structure of the rotating part 132 on the first float 131 includes a concave cavity structure, then the turret 520 may be provided with a protrusion structure to be rotatably connected to the rotating part 132; if the structure of the rotating part 132 on the first float 131 includes a protrusion, then the turret 520 may be provided with a concave cavity structure to be rotatably connected to the rotating part 132.

Of course, in some embodiments, the rotating part 132 can be indirectly rotatably connected to the turret 520 of the mooring system 500, for example, it can be indirectly connected through an adapter 700 such as a rolling bearing or a sliding bearing. At this time, when the rotating part 132 uses a protrusion, the protrusion is not limited to a cylindrical shape, and can also be a polygonal shape, which can be indirectly connected through an adapter 700.

[0055] Optionally, when the adapter 700 is included, the adapter 700 may be disposed on the wall surface enclosing the rotating portion 132, for example, the adapter 700 is disposed between one of the stage portions 522 and the wall surface enclosing the rotating portion 132. Of course, a groove may also be provided inside the rotating portion 132, and the adapter 700 may be disposed in the groove and rotatably connected to the stage portion 522.

[0056] Optionally, the turret 520 abuts against the first floating body 131 and is provided with a sealing structure 5211 , and the sealing structure 5211 is used to achieve sealing between the turret 520 and the rotating body 130 .

[0058] A floating device 100 provided in an embodiment of the present application has a rotating part 132 including a cavity and a protrusion arranged on the first floating body 131. The structure is simple to implement, and the setting of the cavity or the protrusion can be selected according to actual conditions. The structural setting is flexible, and the cavity or the protrusion can be rotatably connected to the turret 520 of the mooring system 500 to ensure the yaw requirement of the wind turbine generator set.

[0059] In some embodiments, the distance between the first end 121 and the second end 122 is adjustable.

[0060] A floating device 100 provided in an embodiment of the present application can meet different requirements for the distance between the floating body and the floating body 110 by setting the spacing between the first end 121 and the second end 122 to be adjustable, and the spacing between the first end 121 and the second end 122 can be adjusted according to the volume of the floating body 110 and the advantages and disadvantages during rotation, thereby achieving the effects of reducing costs and saving labor.

[0061] The structure of the first connecting member 120 can be a telescopic cylinder structure, a connecting rod structure, etc. If the structure of the first connecting member 120 includes a connecting rod structure, the positions of the first end 121 and the second end 122 can be adjusted. For example, the two ends of the connecting rod structure include a plurality of connecting holes arranged along the length direction of the first connecting member 120. The first connecting member 120 can be connected to the floating body and the floating body 110 through the connecting holes. Through the selective connection of the connecting holes, the relative spacing between the first end 121 and the second end 122 can be adjusted.

[0062] In some embodiments, the floating bodies 110 are arranged symmetrically with respect to the first plane A1 , and the central axis of the rotating portion 132 of the rotating body 130 is located on the first plane A1 .

[0063] The floating device 100 provided in one embodiment of the present application can be more stable and reliable when floating through the symmetrical arrangement of the floating body 110, reduce the probability of the floating body 110 tilting when rotating, and provide a more stable support platform for the nacelle 300 and the impeller 400. The setting that the central axis of the rotating body 130 is located on the first plane A1 can improve the wind accuracy of the entire floating device 100. In addition, with the above setting, the first connecting member 120 as a whole can be used as a turning force arm, so that the turning force arm is the longest, so that when the floating device 100 is rotated with the turret 520 of the mooring system 500 as the rotation center, it is more labor-saving and reduces the difficulty of rotation.

[0064] In some embodiments, the floating body 110 includes a plurality of second floats 111 and a second connecting member 112.

[0066] Optionally, the structure of the second connecting member 112 may include one or more rod-like structures, a plate-like structure, or a hollow frame structure, etc., which is mainly used to connect the second connecting members 112 to each other.

[0067] The floating device 100 provided in an embodiment of the present application has a more stable structure through the arrangement of multiple second floating bodies 111, and can better maintain stability in harsh environments, thereby improving reliability.

[0068] In some embodiments, the number of second floats 111 is three, the line connecting the midpoints of the orthographic projections of the three second floats 111 along the first direction Y forms an isosceles triangle, and the midpoint of the orthographic projection of the rotating body 130 along the first direction Y is located on the perpendicular bisector of the isosceles triangle.

[0069] A floating body device 100 provided in an embodiment of the present application increases the stability of the floating body 110 structure by setting the line connecting the midpoints of the orthographic projections of the three second floating bodies 111 along the first direction Y to be an isosceles triangle, which can also save the use of materials. There is no need to set up multiple structures to assemble the floating body 110, thereby reducing costs. In addition, the above-mentioned setting uses the perpendicular bisector of the isosceles triangle and the first connecting member 120 as the turning force arm, which can further save effort and reduce the difficulty of rotation.

[0070] In some embodiments, the first buoy 131 and / or at least one of the plurality of second buoys 111 has a cavity filled with a ballast medium, and the weight of the ballast medium is adjustable.

[0071] The first float 131 or at least one of the plurality of second floats 111 may have a cavity, or the first float 131 and at least one of the plurality of second floats 111 may have a cavity.

[0072] The number of the second floating bodies 111 having cavities may be one, two, or more. For example, when the number of the second floating bodies 111 having cavities is three, a ballast medium may be provided in the cavities of the second floating bodies 111 .

[0073] Optionally, a suction pump may be used to inject or extract ballast medium into the cavity to ensure the ballast effect.

[0074] A floating device 100 provided in an embodiment of the present application has a first floating body 131 and / or at least one of the multiple second floating bodies 111 having a cavity, and a ballast medium is filled in the cavity, which can offset the steady-state wind heeling moment, reduce the load of the wind turbine generator set, and improve the power generation efficiency.

[0076] The number of mooring cables 510 includes multiple ones, and the mooring cables 510 include but are not limited to distributed catenary cables and vertical tensioned ones. The turret 520 connected to the mooring cables 510 can be directly connected to the rotating part 132, or can be indirectly connected to the rotating part 132. For example, the mooring cables 510 can be connected to a separate float, and the float is connected to the rotating part 132 through a hinged rod.

Optionally, the wind turbine generator set further includes a pitch system, which is installed on the hub 410 and is used to control the position angle of the blade 420 relative to the rotation plane.

This reduces the probability of the blades 420 sweeping the tower 200 when the blades 420 rotate, and allows the carrying of larger blades 420, thereby improving the reliability of the operation of the wind turbine generator set.

[0082] In some embodiments, the central axis of the rotating portion 132 of the rotating body 130 is arranged to be orthogonal to the rotation axis of the impeller 400 .
