[0022] The embodiments of the technical solution of the present utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following embodiments are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical solution of the present utility model, so they are only examples and cannot be used to limit the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] Please refer to Figures 1 to 2 , the present utility model provides an assembled transition section, which includes a main cylinder 100, a lattice angle column 200, and a connecting member 300.

[0024] Specifically, the main cylinder 100 is a cylindrical steel cylinder. There are multiple lattice angle columns 200, and the multiple lattice angle columns 200 are circumferentially and evenly spaced around the central axis of the main cylinder 100. In a specific implementation, the number of lattice angle columns 200 can be four, and the four lattice angle columns 200 can improve the stability of the entire transition section.

[0025] The height of the connecting member 300 is less than the height of the main cylinder 100, and each lattice angle column 200 is connected to the side wall of the main cylinder 100 through a connecting member 300. The height of the cross-section of the connecting member 300 gradually decreases from the main cylinder 100 to the lattice angle column 200, and this gradually decreasing structure is convenient for connecting with the lattice angle column 200.

[0026] When in use, the assembled transition section is connected between the steel cylinder and the concrete foundation. The four lattice angle columns 200 can play an auxiliary supporting role, thereby improving the stability of the entire tower. In addition, the entire transition section has a simple structure, is easy to install and operate, saves costs, and can shorten the installation period.

[0027] Specifically, the lattice angle column 200 includes a central cylinder 210, an outer sleeve cylinder 220, and a connecting plate 230. The outer sleeve cylinder 220 is sleeved outside the central cylinder 210. There are multiple connecting plates 230, and the multiple connecting plates 230 are circumferentially spaced and connected between the central cylinder 210 and the outer sleeve cylinder 220. With this structure, through the connection of the connecting plates 230, the strength of the entire lattice angle column 200 can be ensured, and at the same time, the weight of the entire lattice angle column 200 can be reduced.

[0028] As a preferred implementation manner, the lattice angle column 200 further includes angle column ring ribs 240. There are two angle column ring ribs 240, and the two angle column ring ribs 240 are sleeved and fixed at the upper and lower ends of the outer sleeve cylinder 220. The connecting member 300 is connected to the two angle column ring ribs 240. By adopting the connection mode of the connecting member 300 and the angle column ring ribs 240, the force on the entire lattice angle column 200 can be made uniform.

[0029] As another preferred embodiment, a plurality of stiffening plates 110 are circumferentially spaced on the outer walls at the upper and lower ends of the main cylinder 100. The stiffening plates 110 can prevent local buckling of the main cylinder 100 during use.

[0030] In addition, in this embodiment, the cross-section of the connecting member 300 is in the shape of an I-beam. The I-beam shape can improve the stiffness and strength of the entire connecting member 300. In specific implementation, the welding connection method between the connecting member 300 and the main cylinder 100 and the corner column can be welding fixation. Of course, it can also be other dry connection methods, such as bolt connection.

[0031] The adoption of the prefabricated transition section has the following advantages:

[0032] 1. A number of stiffening plates 110 arranged around the main cylinder 100 can prevent local buckling of the main cylinder 100;

[0033] 2. The lattice-type corner columns 200 are located at the four corners of the transition section and can play a role in stable support;

[0034] 3. Two circles of corner column ring ribs 240 are arranged on each lattice-type corner column and connected to the connecting member 300, which can improve the support stability of the entire main cylinder 100;

[0035] 4. The cross-section of the connecting member 300 between the main cylinder 100 and the lattice-type corner column 200 is in the shape of an I-beam, which can improve the stiffness and strength of the connecting member 300 and prevent the connecting member 300 from being bent under force.

[0036] In addition, the present utility model also provides a wind power tower, including the above-mentioned prefabricated transition section, and further including a steel cylinder and a concrete foundation. The generator set is connected to the top of the steel cylinder, the concrete foundation is fixed on the ground, and the steel cylinder is connected to the concrete foundation through the prefabricated transition section.

[0037] For the wind power tower adopting the above-mentioned prefabricated transition section, the stability of the entire wind power tower is greatly improved.

[0038] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present utility model, rather than to limit it; although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that: they can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements on some or all of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present utility model, and they should all be covered by the scope of the claims and the description of the present utility model.
