Description

Technical Field

[0002] A flywheel energy storage device is an energy storage equipment, and its working principle is to realize the storage and release of electric energy through the acceleration and deceleration of a rotor. When the electric energy is sufficient, the electric energy is used to drive the flywheel to rotate at a high speed, and the electric energy is converted into mechanical energy for storage. When the system needs it, the flywheel decelerates, and the motor operates as a generator, which can convert the kinetic energy of the flywheel into electric energy for users. At present, the flywheel energy storage technology has been applied on a large scale in the fields such as kinetic energy recovery of rail transit and power grid frequency modulation.

[0003] The rotor of the flywheel is an important component of the flywheel energy storage device. In order to enable the rotor to accumulate a large enough kinetic energy, the size and weight of the rotor are generally designed to be relatively large. In order to improve the power density and energy density, the flywheel needs to rotate at a high speed. The shafting of the flywheel generally adopts a vertical installation structure. In order to reduce the frictional loss, the shell of the flywheel energy storage device is subjected to vacuum pumping treatment, and magnetic bearings are widely used as the bearing type.

[0004] Since the flywheel energy storage device has high requirements for the manufacturing and assembly accuracy of components, and the flywheel energy storage device needs to be transported to a designated site after production and manufacturing, the skew or collision of the machine body during transportation will affect the product accuracy. In the rotor system using passive magnetic bearings, the vibration and tilt during transportation will directly affect the control stability of the passive magnetic bearings for the rotor. To solve this problem, in the prior art, the flywheel energy storage device adopts an on-site assembly method, that is, each component is first transported to the site, and then assembled on-site by technical personnel, and operations such as sealing and vacuum pumping are carried out. This method is time-consuming and laborious, and requires on-site installation equipment, resulting in high costs. Summary of the Utility Model

[0046] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 simultaneously, and the flywheel energy storage device 1 provided by the embodiment of the present utility model will be described below.

[0047] Please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 4 simultaneously. The embodiment of the present utility model provides a flywheel energy storage device 1, including a protective housing 10, a stator 20, a rotor shaft group 30 and a compression mechanism 40. An accommodation cavity is formed inside the protective housing 10, and a support portion 111 is provided on the side wall of the protective housing 10; the stator 20 is arranged in the accommodation cavity along the vertical direction; the rotor shaft group 30 includes a rotor 31, a magnetic bearing 32 and a lower support mechanism 33 respectively accommodated in the accommodation cavity. The rotor 31 is coaxially arranged with the stator 20 and is located above the support portion 111. The magnetic bearing 32 is arranged above the rotor 31 and is coaxially arranged with the rotor 31. The lower support mechanism 33 is arranged below the rotor 31, and the lower support mechanism 33 can move along the vertical direction; the compression mechanism 40 is arranged on the protective housing 10 and is located above the rotor 31. The compression mechanism 40 has a pressing portion that can move vertically; the rotor 31 has a transportation posture and a working posture. When in the transportation posture, the bottom of the rotor 31 abuts against the support portion 111, and the pressing portion abuts against the upper part of the rotor 31; when in the working posture, there is a first gap between the rotor 31 and the support portion 111, and there is a second gap between the rotor 31 and the pressing portion.

[0048] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the flywheel energy storage device 1 provided by the embodiment of the present utility model are as follows:

[0049] The flywheel energy storage device 1 provided by the embodiment of the present utility model includes a protective housing 10, a stator 20, a rotor 31, magnetic bearings 32, a lower support mechanism 33, and a pressing mechanism 40. The lower support mechanism 33 is located below the rotor 31, can support the rotor 31, and can move in the vertical direction. The pressing mechanism 40 is located above the rotor 31 and has a pressing part that can move vertically. During the normal use of the flywheel energy storage device 1, the rotor 31, the protective housing 10, and the pressing mechanism 40 do not work. When transportation is required, in order to prevent the rotor 31 from tilting or colliding due to vibration or shaking during movement, the lower support mechanism 33 can first drive the rotor 31 to move downward until the bottom surface of the rotor 31 contacts the support part 111, and then the pressing mechanism 40 is adjusted to make the pressing part press the rotor 31 downward. At this time, the rotor 31 is pressed and fixed by the pressing part and the support part 111, which is convenient for transportation. After being transported to the installation station, the pressing mechanism 40 is adjusted to rise, and then the lower support mechanism 33 is adjusted to drive the rotor 31 to rise and return to the original position, so as to restore the relative position of the rotor 31 and the magnetic bearings 32.

[0050] In the embodiment of the present utility model, the protective housing 10 is a hollow housing member with an accommodation cavity inside for accommodating various components and playing a protective role. The inner wall of the accommodation cavity is provided with a support part 111. The support part 111 can be an annular boss or a plurality of circumferentially arranged protrusions, as long as it can support the rotor 31 during transportation. The stator 20 is arranged in the accommodation cavity, and the stator 20 is coaxially arranged with the rotor 31. Optionally, the stator 20 can be located inside the rotor 31 (i.e., the outer rotor setting form) or outside the rotor 31 (i.e., the inner rotor arrangement form).

[0051] The rotor shaft group 30 includes a rotor 31, magnetic bearings 32, and a lower support mechanism 33. The magnetic bearings 32 can specifically be passive magnetic bearings 32 or other types of magnetic bearings 32. The lower support mechanism 33 can be a hydrodynamic bearing 331 and a damper 332. Among them, the magnetic bearings 32, the hydrodynamic bearing 331, and the damper 332 can all directly select existing products on the market, and there is no limit to their specific specifications and models.

[0052] The passive magnetic bearing 32 and the rotor 31 are respectively provided with circumferential NS-level magnetism. During use, the force of the rotor 31 on the hydrodynamic bearing 331 must be strictly controlled, and it is required that the up and down fluctuation of this force does not exceed 30 N. Under such control requirements for the downforce accuracy, the continuous and stable operation of the hydrodynamic bearing 331 can be achieved. To achieve this, the axial relative position of the magnetic bearing 32 and the rotor 31 must be strictly controlled. The axial stiffness of the flywheel energy storage device 1 can reach about 700 N / mm, because the height of each magnetic pole is relatively low. Once the rotor 31 generates an axial displacement due to vibration or inclination during transportation, and the axial displacement exceeds a certain value, the downforce of the magnetic bearing 32 on the rotor 31 will become a lifting force. If this lifting force exceeds the weight of the rotor 31 itself, it will cause the rotor 31 to rise, and at this stiffness, the acceleration of the rotor 31 rising will be very large, causing damage to the rotor 31 and its body.

[0053] In the embodiment of the present utility model, by providing a vertically movable lower support mechanism 33 and a pressing mechanism 40, and arranging a support portion 111 for supporting the rotor 31 on the inner wall of the protective housing 10, the rotor 31 can be switched between the transportation posture and the working posture, enabling the flywheel energy storage device 1 to be transported normally without on-site assembly, which is more convenient.

When transported to the designated location, the pressure rod 42 can be rotated in the reverse direction, and under the action of the elastic pre-tightening force, the transport pressing plate 41 moves upward and separates from the rotor 31.
