[0002] Modular wind turbine blades are an innovative technology in the field of wind power generation. It combines multiple small blades into a large blade structure. The connection structure of modular wind turbine blades refers to the connection and fixation structure when multiple small blades are assembled, so as to ensure the stability during the use of the blade combination.

[0003] For the existing connection structure of modular wind turbine blades, such as a connection structure of modular wind turbine blades disclosed in CN216767623U, although it has the advantages of bonding the main beam box module with the leading edge module and the trailing edge module, without bolt connection, reducing the weight of the wind turbine blade and also reducing the lightning protection design cost, there is no multi-layer connection of the outer layer, middle layer and inner layer between the module blade connections. Therefore, it is inconvenient to ensure the stability between the connections in a harsh environment. For this reason, we propose a connection structure for modular wind turbine blades.
