It should be understood that the specific embodiments described here are only used to explain the utility model and are not used to limit the utility model.

[0019] The specific implementation of the present utility model is described in detail below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0020] The embodiment of the utility model provides movable blades of a large horizontal axis wind turbine, and the movable blades of the large horizontal axis wind turbine include: a hub 1; a plurality of blades 2 are arranged on the circumferential side of the hub 1, and the side of each blade 2 close to the hub 1 is rotatably connected to the hub 1; wherein, two auxiliary blades 3 are slidably connected in each blade 2, and a retractable assembly capable of extending and retracting the auxiliary blades 3 is arranged between the two auxiliary blades 3, and the width of the blade 2 can be increased by the retractable assembly; a variable pitch assembly is arranged in the hub 1, and the angle of the blade can be changed by the variable pitch assembly, and both sides of the blade 2 are provided with sliding grooves for the auxiliary blades 3 to slide.

[0021] It should be noted that one end of the blade 2 is rotatably connected to the hub 1 so that the blade 2 can rotate with the hub 1. Slide grooves are provided on both sides of the blade 2 for the sliding of the auxiliary blades 3. The design of the auxiliary blades 3 can increase the effective width of the blades 2 when extended and retracted, thereby improving the energy capture efficiency. The retractable assembly is responsible for controlling the extension and retraction of the auxiliary blades 3, and the width of the blades can be increased or decreased by the retractable assembly. The variable pitch assembly is used to adjust the angle of the blades 2 to optimize the performance of the wind turbine at different wind speeds and directions. By changing the windward angle of the blades, the energy capture efficiency can be maximized.

[0022] In an embodiment of the utility model, the retractable assembly includes a slide bar 21 that is slidably connected to the blade 2, and the slide bar 21 is located between the two auxiliary blades 3. Slide bar grooves are provided on both sides of the slide bar 21, and the two auxiliary blades 3 are provided with auxiliary blade grooves on the side close to the slide bar 21. A plurality of support rods 22 are rotatably connected in the two slide bar grooves, and each support rod 22 is rotatably connected to the two auxiliary blade grooves on the side away from the slide bar 21. A transmission rod 23 is connected to one end of the slide bar 21, and a first driving member for driving the transmission rod 23 to reciprocate is installed at one end of the blade 2. The retractable assembly also includes a plurality of limit blocks 24 installed on the inner top wall and inner bottom wall of the blade 2, and the plurality of limit blocks 24 are respectively located on both sides of the blade 2, and the top and bottom of the two auxiliary blades 3 are provided with limit grooves 25 corresponding to the limit blocks 24.

[0023] It should be noted that the slide bar 21 is slidably connected in the blade 2 and is located between the two auxiliary blades 3. The slide bar 21 is used for smooth sliding between the auxiliary blades 3. Slide bar grooves are provided on both sides of the slide bar 21, and these grooves are used to install the support rod 22 so that the support rod 22 can rotate freely on the slide bar 21. The two auxiliary blades 3 are provided with auxiliary blade grooves on the side close to the slide bar 21. These grooves correspond to the slide bar grooves and are used for the rotation connection of the support rod 22. The design of the auxiliary blade grooves ensures that the support rod 22 can rotate freely between the auxiliary blade 3 and the slide bar 21, so that the auxiliary blade 3 can be extended and retracted with the movement of the slide bar 21. One end of the slide bar 21 is connected to a transmission rod 23, and the transmission rod 23 reciprocates through a first driving member. The first driving member can be a hydraulic cylinder or other device that can provide reciprocating power to drive the extension and retraction of the slide bar 21 and the auxiliary blade 3. The retractable assembly also includes a plurality of limit blocks 24, which are respectively mounted on the inner top wall and the inner bottom wall of the blade 2 and are located on both sides of the inside of the blade 2. The function of the limit blocks 24 is to limit the movement range of the auxiliary blades 3 to ensure that the auxiliary blades 3 do not exceed the design range during the extension and retraction process. The retractable assembly achieves stable extension and retraction of the auxiliary blades 3 through the coordinated work of the slide bar 21, the support rod 22, the transmission rod 23, the limit blocks 24 and the limit grooves 25. The first driving member provides power to drive the reciprocating movement of the slide bar 21 through the transmission rod 23, thereby driving the extension and retraction of the auxiliary blades 3. At the same time, the design of the limit blocks 24 and the limit grooves 25 ensures the stability and accurate positioning of the auxiliary blades during the extension and retraction process, which not only improves the energy capture efficiency of the wind turbine, but also ensures the reliability and stability of its operation.

[0024] In an embodiment of the utility model, each blade 2 is connected to a rotor 4 on one side close to the hub 1, and each rotor 4 passes through the hub 1 and is connected to an adjustment plate 5 on one side away from the blade 2. The pitch assembly includes a screw rod 6 rotatably connected to the hub 1, and the outer side of the screw rod 6 is threadedly connected to a thread sleeve 61. The outer top of the thread sleeve 61 is rotatably connected to a plurality of traction rods 62, and the number of traction rods 62 corresponds to the number of adjustment plates 5. One end of the traction rod 62 away from the thread sleeve 61 is connected to the edge of one side of the adjustment plate 5, and a second driving member for driving the screw rod 6 to rotate is installed at the bottom located in the hub 1.

[0025] It should be noted that: each blade 2 is connected to a rotor 4 on one side close to the hub 1.

The side of the rotor 4 away from the blade 2 passes through the hub 1 and is connected to an adjustment plate 5, and the design of the adjustment plate 5 ensures that it can control the angle of the blade 2. The pitch assembly includes a screw 6 rotatably connected to the hub 1. The design of the screw must ensure that it can rotate smoothly in the hub, and the adjustment function is achieved through a threaded connection. The outer side of the screw 6 is threadedly connected to a wire sleeve 61, allowing the wire sleeve 61 to move on the screw 6. The outer top of the wire sleeve 61 is rotatably connected to multiple traction rods 62, and the number of traction rods 62 corresponds to the number of adjustment plates 5. The end of the traction rod 62 away from the wire sleeve 61 is connected to the edge of one side of the adjustment plate 5, and the traction rod 62 can withstand the force generated during the adjustment process and transmit torque between the adjustment plate 5 and the wire sleeve 61. A second driving member for driving the screw 6 to rotate is installed at the bottom of the hub 1. The second driving member is an electric motor. Through the coordinated work of the rotating head 4, the adjusting plate 5, the screw 6, the wire sleeve 61 and the traction rod 62, the pitch assembly can adjust the angle of the blade 2, thereby optimizing the wind capture efficiency. The screw 6 rotates under the action of the second driving member, drives the traction rod 62 through the wire sleeve 61, and then adjusts the angle of the adjusting plate 5. The adjusting plate 5 adjusts the angle of the blade 2 through the rotating head 4 to achieve the pitch function.
