Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of offshore wind turbine foundations, in particular to a mat - type jacket wind turbine foundation. Background Technique
[0002] At present, the forms of wind turbine foundations for offshore wind power generation mainly include: monopile foundation, jacket foundation, high - pile cap foundation, suction bucket foundation, single - pile composite barrel foundation, floating foundation, etc., among which the monopile foundation and the jacket foundation account for the main components.
[0003] Currently, the jacket foundation mainly provides support for the wind turbine foundation in the form of drilling and rock embedding. This not only destroys the natural good compressive capacity of the rock, but also leads to a very long offshore construction operation time and low efficiency due to the need for offshore drilling and rock embedding. At the same time, a large number of drilling operations cause serious pollution to the marine environment. For this reason, the patent authorization announcement number CN218405526 U discloses a mat - type jacket wind turbine foundation, "utilizing the good natural compressive bearing capacity of the rock geology, and ensuring that the wind turbine foundation will not overturn during the operation of the unit by ballasting the mat, which can not only meet the operation requirements of the wind turbine, but also greatly reduce the offshore operation time due to the absence of offshore drilling, thus ensuring the overall benefit of the entire wind farm and better protecting the marine environment". However, the bottom surface of the above - mentioned mat is a rigid structure and cannot adaptively deform according to the shape of the seabed, which further results in a small contact area between the mat and the seabed, and poor stability of the mat frame on the seabed. Content of the Utility Model
[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a mat - type jacket wind turbine foundation to solve the problems raised in the above background technique.
