Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of wind turbine gearboxes, in particular to a lubricating device for a wind turbine gearbox. Background Art
[0002] The gearbox is an important mechanical component widely used in wind power generation units. Its main function is to transmit the power generated by the wind wheel under the action of wind force to the generator and make it obtain the corresponding rotational speed. In order to ensure the service life and smooth operation, the gear set in the gearbox needs to be lubricated.
[0003] The existing lubricating devices usually adopt the spraying method to inject lubricating fluid into the gear set. However, this method is usually only suitable for lubricating fluids with relatively low viscosity. For lubricating fluids with relatively high viscosity, this method is not suitable, resulting in limitations in the application range. Summary of the Utility Model
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide a lubricating device for a wind turbine gearbox, which is suitable for lubricating fluids with different viscosities, has small use limitations, and good lubrication uniformity, aiming at the above-mentioned technical deficiencies.
[0005] The technical solution adopted by the utility model is as follows: A lubricating device for a wind turbine gearbox is provided, which includes a gearbox body. A gear set is arranged inside the gearbox body. A reciprocating lead screw is rotatably connected inside the gearbox body. A driving gear is sleeved and fixed on the reciprocating lead screw.

[0006] The lubricating fluid brushing mechanism includes a liquid guide cylinder fixed inside the gearbox body and a liquid storage shell fixed on the top of the gearbox body. A piston is hermetically and slidably connected inside the liquid guide cylinder. The sliding direction of the piston is parallel to the moving direction of the driving block. The driving block is fixedly connected to the piston through a connecting rod. The two ends of the liquid guide cylinder are respectively communicated with a liquid suction pipe and a liquid discharge pipe. A liquid inlet check valve is installed on the liquid suction pipe. A liquid discharge check valve is installed on the liquid discharge pipe. The liquid suction pipe extends into the bottom of the gearbox body. The liquid discharge pipe is communicated with the liquid storage shell. Leakage holes are evenly opened at the lower end of the liquid storage shell. Brush hairs are inserted and fixed in the leakage holes. The lower ends of the brush hairs are in frictional contact with the gear set.
[0007] To further optimize the technical solution, the diameter of the brush hairs of a lubricating device for a wind turbine gearbox is smaller than the diameter of the leakage holes; one side of the upper part of the brush hairs is fixed to the leakage holes, and the other side is separated from the leakage holes.
[0008] To further optimize this technical solution, a receiving box is fixed inside the gear box body of a fan gear box lubrication device; the receiving box is correspondingly located below the gear set; the liquid suction pipe is communicated with the receiving box.
[0009] To further optimize this technical solution, the bottom end inside the receiving box of a fan gear box lubrication device is of a conical structure with high sides and low middle; the liquid suction pipe is communicated with the middle of the bottom end inside the receiving box.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS
[0017] The present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the drawings and specific embodiments.
[0018] As Figure 1As shown in the figure, a lubrication device for a fan gearbox includes a gearbox body 1. Inside the gearbox body 1, there is a gear set 2. A reciprocating lead screw 3 is rotatably connected inside the gearbox body 1. A driving gear 4 is sleeved and fixed on the reciprocating lead screw 3. The driving gear 4 meshes with the gear set 2. Above the reciprocating lead screw 3, a slide bar 5 is arranged in parallel. The slide bar 5 is fixed to the gearbox body 1. A sliding block 6 is slidably sleeved on the slide bar 5. The sliding block 6 is correspondingly threadedly connected to the reciprocating lead screw 3. A lubricating liquid brushing mechanism is arranged inside the gearbox body 1.
[0019] As Figure 2 shown, the lubricating liquid brushing mechanism includes a liquid guiding cylinder 7 fixed inside the gearbox body 1 and a liquid storage shell 8 fixed on the top of the gearbox body 1. A piston 9 is hermetically and slidably connected inside the liquid guiding cylinder 7. The sliding direction of the piston 9 is parallel to the moving direction of the sliding block 6. The sliding block 6 is fixedly connected to the piston 9 through a connecting rod 17. The two ends of the liquid guiding cylinder 7 are respectively communicated with a liquid suction pipe 10 and a liquid discharge pipe 11. A liquid inlet check valve 12 is installed on the liquid suction pipe 10. A liquid discharge check valve 13 is installed on the liquid discharge pipe 11. The liquid suction pipe 10 extends into the bottom of the gearbox body 1. The liquid discharge pipe 11 is communicated with the liquid storage shell 8. Leakage holes 14 are evenly opened at the lower end of the liquid storage shell 8. Brush hairs 15 are inserted and fixed in the leakage holes 14. The lower ends of the brush hairs 15 are in frictional contact with the gear set 2.
[0020] When the gear set 2 is running, it will drive the driving gear 4 to rotate, drive the reciprocating lead screw 3 to rotate, and the sliding block 6 can reciprocate along the direction of the slide bar 5, and then drive the piston 9 to reciprocate and suck and inject in the liquid guiding cylinder 7 through the connecting rod 17. When the piston 9 sucks, the lubricating liquid in the gearbox body 1 can enter the liquid guiding cylinder 7 through the liquid suction pipe 10. When the piston 9 injects, the lubricating liquid in the liquid guiding cylinder 7 can be injected into the liquid storage shell 8 through the liquid discharge pipe 11, and then be brushed onto the gear set 2 through the brush hairs 15. Through the above process, the continuous lubrication effect on the gear set 2 can be achieved when the gear set 2 is working.
[0021] Due to the setting of the liquid discharge check valve 13 on the liquid discharge pipe 11, the liquid discharge pipe 11 will only inject lubricating liquid into the liquid storage shell 8 and will not draw it out in the reverse direction. Therefore, even if the viscosity of the lubricating liquid is relatively high and the lubricating liquid in the liquid storage shell 8 cannot flow out smoothly at the beginning, but with the continuous injection of lubricating liquid into the liquid storage shell 8, the lubricating liquid in the liquid storage shell 8 is gradually filled. When it is filled and then injected again, the lubricating liquid can ensure to drain from the leakage holes 14. Therefore, this technical solution is suitable for lubricating liquids with different viscosities and has little use limitation.
[0022] In addition, when the lubricating liquid falls from the leakage holes 14, it will flow down along the brush hairs 15, and the brush hairs 15 will adhere to the lubricating liquid. In this way, when the gear set 2 is running and the brush hairs 15 are in frictional contact with the gear set 2, the lubricating liquid will be brushed onto the gear set 2. Through this brushing method, the lubricating liquid can be more evenly distributed and more firmly adhered to the gear set 2, ensuring the reliability of the lubrication effect.
[0023] As Figure 3 shown, the diameter of the bristles 15 is smaller than the diameter of the liquid leakage hole 14; one side of the upper part of the bristles 15 is fixed to the liquid leakage hole 14, and the other side is separated from the liquid leakage hole 14, ensuring that there is enough space between the liquid leakage hole 14 and the bristles 15 for the lubricating liquid to fall.
[0024] As Figure 1 shown, a receiving box 16 is fixed inside the gear box body 1; the receiving box 16 is correspondingly located below the gear set 2; the liquid suction pipe 10 is communicated with the receiving box 16, and the lubricating liquid dripping from the gear set 2 is received by the receiving box 16, which can improve the efficiency when the liquid suction pipe 10 sucks the liquid, and the falling lubricating liquid does not contact the other parts inside the gear box body 1, reducing pollution.
[0025] As Figure 2 shown, the bottom end inside the receiving box 16 is a conical structure with high sides and low middle; the liquid suction pipe 10 is communicated with the middle part of the bottom end inside the receiving box 16, which is convenient for the collection of the lubricating liquid and more convenient for suction, and reduces the residue of the lubricating liquid in the receiving box 16 during suction.
[0026] It can be understood that the present utility model is described through some embodiments. Those skilled in the art know that without departing from the spirit and scope of the present utility model, various changes or equivalent replacements can be made to these features and embodiments. In addition, under the teaching of the present utility model, these features and embodiments can be modified to adapt to specific situations and materials without departing from the spirit and scope of the present utility model.
