DETAILED DESCRIPTION

For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0027] See also Figure 1-3 , a locking device for a wind turbine generator set, comprising a support shell 1, a support column 2, a fan blade 3 and a locking assembly, wherein the support column 2 is rotatably connected to the support shell 1 and one end of the support column 2 is fixedly connected to the fan blade 3 after passing through one side of the support shell 1, and a locking assembly is arranged at the rotation connection between the other end of the support column 2 and the inner wall of the support shell 1 and at the inner section of the support column 2 located in the support shell 1;

[0028] The locking assembly includes a first gear 4, a second gear 5 and a first motor 6. The first gear 4 is arranged outside the support column 2 and inside the side plate of the support shell 1. The second gear 5 is meshed with the first gear 4 and the middle part is fixedly connected to the output end of the first motor 6.

[0029] In this embodiment, bearings are provided at one end of the support column 2 and the inner wall of the support shell 1 and the middle portion passing through the other side, and anti-collision grooves are provided inside the side plate of the support shell 1 near the first gear 4 and the second gear 5.

[0030] It should be noted that the bearing is provided to ensure that the support column 2 rotates more smoothly in the support housing 1, reduce friction, and improve rotation efficiency. At the same time, the bearing also has a certain load-bearing capacity, which can support the weight of the support column 2 and the fan blade 3 at its upper end. The anti-collision groove is designed to prevent the first gear 4 and the second gear 5 from colliding with the support housing 1 during rotation, protect the gears from damage, reduce noise and vibration, and improve the operating stability of the entire locking device.

[0031] In this embodiment, the bottom of the first motor 6 is fixedly connected to the top of the telescopic rod 7 through a connecting seat and a screw, the bottom of the telescopic rod 7 is fixedly connected to the inside of the side plate of the support shell 1, and a movable groove is opened inside the side plate of the support shell 1 at the top of the telescopic rod 7.

[0032] It should be noted that the design of the telescopic rod 7 allows the first motor 6 to telescope along its length. This design allows the first motor 6 and the second gear 5 to flexibly approach or move away from the first gear 4, thereby achieving the meshing and separation of the gears, and facilitating the fine adjustment and locking operations of the support column 2.

[0033] In this embodiment, the locking assembly also includes a second motor 9, a third gear 10 and two fourth gears 11. The second motor 9 is arranged at the rear of the support shell 1 and a protective box 8 is arranged outside it and is fixedly connected to the rear of the support shell 1 through the protective box 8.

[0034] It should be noted that the placement of the second motor 9 ensures that it can stably drive the third gear 10 to rotate. The provision of the protection box 8 not only provides protection for the second motor 9 to prevent damage to it by external factors such as dust, moisture, etc., but also enhances the safety and reliability of the entire locking device.

[0035] In this embodiment, the output end of the second motor 9 passes through the side wall of the supporting shell 1 and is fixedly connected to the third gear 10. The two fourth gears 11 are respectively rotatably connected to the two sides of the third gear 10. The middle parts of the two fourth gears 11 are fixed with a rotating rod 12 through a screw.

[0036] In this embodiment, bearings are rotatably connected to both ends of the rotating rod 12 and the two side walls of the supporting shell 1. The outside of the rotating rod 12 is provided with two symmetrically distributed sections of threads in opposite directions. The outside of the two rotating rods 12 is threadedly connected with two symmetrically distributed clamping blocks 13 through the two sections of threads.

[0037] It should be noted that the bearing design here is to ensure that the rotation of the rotating rod 12 in the support housing 1 is more stable and smooth. Through the support and guiding effect of the bearing, the rotating rod 12 can accurately perform the rotation action, thereby realizing the precise control of the clamping block 13. The symmetrically distributed two-section thread design in opposite directions is the key feature of the rotating rod 12. This design enables the two clamping blocks 13 to move toward or away from the center of the rotating rod 12 at the same time, thereby realizing the firm locking or unlocking of the support column 2. This mechanism is simple and efficient, and improves the reliability of the locking device.

[0038] In this embodiment, the two clamping blocks 13 are sequentially provided with clamping block grooves 14 and clamping rods 15 in their interiors, and the supporting column 2 is sequentially provided with clamping block and clamping rod grooves at corresponding locations thereon.

[0039] It should be noted that the block groove 14 and the clamping rod 15 are designed to cooperate with the block and clamping rod groove outside the support column 2. When the clamping block 13 moves toward the support column 2, the block groove 14 will cooperate with the block, and the clamping rod 15 will cooperate with the clamping rod groove, thereby achieving a firm locking of the support column 2. This locking method has the advantages of simple structure and firm locking.

[0040] In this embodiment, two clamping blocks 13 are provided with insert rods 16 and slots 17 near four corners at one end thereof, and two symmetrically distributed rails 18 are inserted into the clamping blocks 13 , and both ends of the rails 18 are welded to the side wall of the supporting shell 1 .

[0041] It should be noted that the plug-in design of the steel rail 18 is to enhance the structural strength and stability of the clamp 13. The steel rail 18 has excellent rigidity and load-bearing capacity, and can effectively support the mechanical action of the clamp 13 during the locking process. At the same time, the symmetrical distribution of the steel rail 18 also ensures the uniformity of the clamp 13 when subjected to force, avoiding damage or deformation caused by uneven force.

[0042] Beneficial effects:

[0043] The locking device of the wind turbine generator set can achieve fine adjustment of the support column 2 through the coordinated use of the first gear 4, the second gear 5 and the first motor 6, thereby ensuring the precise docking of the locking device with the support column 2. This fine-tuning mechanism not only improves the accuracy and reliability of locking, but also avoids equipment damage or locking failure caused by inaccurate docking. In addition, the design of the telescopic rod 7 allows the first motor 6 to move flexibly, thereby pushing the first motor 6 and the second gear 5 to move to mesh with the first gear 4 for fine-tuning when locking is required. When locking is not required, the second gear 5 is away from the first gear 4, thereby not affecting the normal rotation of the support column 2. The coordinated use of the second motor 9, the third gear 10 and the two fourth gears 11 provides a strong driving force for the locking device. By driving the rotating rod 12 to rotate, the clamping block 13 can be accurately controlled, thereby achieving a firm lock of the support column 2. The block groove 14 and the clamping rod 15 set inside the clamping block 13 are used in coordination with the block and the clamping rod groove outside the support column 2 to ensure the firmness and stability of the locking. At the same time, the design of the plug 16 and the slot 17 and the reinforcement of the rail 18 further enhance the structural strength and stability of the locking device.

[0044] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
