[0006] The utility model is realized by the following technical solutions:

[0007] A large-ratio generator transmission shaft drive system for gravity energy storage, including a generator motor, a planetary gearbox, a four-output parallel shaft gearbox and a traction shaft;

[0008] The two ends of the planetary gearbox are respectively a planetary gearbox high-speed shaft and a planetary gearbox low-speed shaft, the two ends of the four-output parallel shaft gearbox are respectively a four-output parallel shaft gearbox high-speed shaft and a four-output parallel shaft gearbox low-speed shaft, one end of the generator motor is connected to the planetary gearbox high-speed shaft through a first coupling, and the planetary gearbox low-speed shaft is connected to the high-speed shaft of the four-output parallel shaft gearbox through a second coupling;

[0009] One end of the four traction shafts is connected to the low-speed shaft of the four-output parallel gearbox through the third coupling, and the other end of the four traction shafts is connected to one or more traction shafts in sequence through the third coupling.

[0010] A further improvement of the utility model is that the four-output parallel shaft gearbox includes a first gear mounted on the high-speed shaft of the four-output parallel shaft gearbox, and a second gear and a third gear mounted on the low-speed shaft of the four-output parallel shaft gearbox, the second gear and the third gear have the same specifications and are symmetrically arranged about the first gear, and are respectively meshed with the outside of the first gear.

[0015] A further improvement of the utility model is that the connection mode between each traction shaft and the reel can be replaced by bolt connection or welding instead of pin-key connection.

[0016] A further improvement of the utility model is that the large-ratio generator transmission shaft drive system can determine whether to remove the planetary gearbox according to different engineering application scenarios and different ratio requirements, that is, one end of the generator motor can be directly connected to the high-speed shaft of the four-output parallel shaft gearbox.

[0020] In the utility model, a planetary gearbox and a four-outlet parallel shaft gearbox are used to connect the generator motor and the traction shaft arranged evenly and symmetrically, so that the power can be transmitted in a stable and reliable two-way manner between the generator motor and the traction shaft. When the gravity energy storage system needs to store the excess energy of the power grid, the generator motor drives the planetary gearbox and the four-outlet parallel shaft gearbox to transmit the power to each traction shaft arranged evenly and symmetrically. Each traction shaft pulls the weight block to a high place through a steel wire rope, so as to achieve the purpose of storing the electric energy into the potential energy of the weight. When the power grid needs the electric energy gravity energy storage system to start releasing energy, the weight block descends and drives the corresponding traction shaft to rotate through the steel wire rope, and then each traction shaft on the coaxial system synchronously drives the four-outlet parallel shaft gearbox and the planetary gearbox, so as to drive the electric generator to rotate and generate electricity.

[0021] Furthermore, the speed change module composed of a planetary gearbox and a four-output parallel shaft gearbox in the utility model can select different combinations according to different application scenarios to achieve any large ratio and large torque transmission and obtain the optimal technical and economic solution.

[0030] Preferably, the generator motor 1 is connected to the planetary gearbox 5 and the four-output parallel shaft gearbox 9 in sequence through the first coupling 2 and the second coupling 18. In this way, the generator motor 1 can drive the planetary gearbox 5 and the four-output parallel shaft gearbox 9 to move synchronously to achieve a large ratio transmission. It is also possible to remove the planetary gearbox 5 according to the application scenarios of different projects and the requirements of different ratios, and directly drive the four-output parallel shaft gearbox 9 to move synchronously by the generator motor 1, or the purpose of adjusting the speed of the low-speed shaft 12 of the four-output parallel shaft gearbox can be achieved by changing the number of teeth of the first gear 10 or the second gear 11 and the third gear 19.

[0031] Preferably, according to the application scenarios of different projects, the four-output parallel shaft gearbox 9 can be replaced by a two-output parallel shaft gearbox, that is, the third gear 19 is removed and only the second gear 11 is retained; the row of traction shafts corresponding to the third gear 19 is also cancelled simultaneously.

[0032] Preferably, both ends of the high-speed shaft 8 of the four-output parallel shaft gearbox are provided with a first bearing box 7, and both ends of the low-speed shaft 12 of the four-output parallel shaft gearbox are provided with a second bearing box 13. This supports the gear shaft and reduces the friction when the gear shafts of the first gear 10, the second gear 10 and the third gear 19 rotate. Both ends of each traction shaft 15 are provided with a second bearing box 13, which supports the traction shaft and reduces the friction when the traction shaft 15 rotates.

[0033] Preferably, a brake 4 is provided on the high-speed shaft 3 of the planetary gearbox, which is activated when the weight reaches a specified position to ensure that the shaft system remains in a stopped state.
