Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of flange connection structures, and more specifically, to a flange connection structure of a wind power tower. Background Art

[0002] Wind energy is a kind of usable energy provided to humans by the work done by air flow. It is a renewable energy source. The kinetic energy of air flow is called wind energy. The higher the air flow rate, the greater the kinetic energy. People can use windmills to convert the kinetic energy of wind into rotational motion to drive generators to generate electricity. Wind turbine towers are the tower poles of wind power generation. They mainly play a supporting role in wind turbine generator sets and absorb the vibration of the set. When the wind turbine towers are connected, flange mechanisms are required for connection.

[0003] Currently, multiple studs are used for multi-point threaded fixation between two flanges, and no positioning structure is designed. As a result, during installation, it is necessary to use a crane to lift the tower and gradually rotate it so that the mounting holes correspond to each other before installation can be carried out, which reduces the installation efficiency. In addition, rainwater can easily penetrate between the two flanges, causing rust and reducing the service life of the flanges. Utility Model Content

[0008] When a wind power tower flange connection structure of the present technical solution is used, the fixed plate, the fixed rod, the positioning plate and the through hole work together to play a positioning role when the flange and the flange cover are installed, so that their mounting holes can quickly correspond to each other, and it is convenient to insert studs for connection and fixation, thereby improving the installation efficiency. Through the arrangement of the flange cover and the flange, the flange cover is covered on the outside of the flange, effectively preventing rainwater from entering the contact position between the flange and the flange cover, effectively avoiding the occurrence of rainwater rust, and improving its service life.

[0009] Furthermore, the four positioning plates are all located below the flange.
