[0022] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects solved by this application clearer and more understandable, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of this application; obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative work belong to the scope of protection of this application.
[0023] Example 1
[0024] As shown in the attached Figure 1 As shown, Example 1 provides a wind turbine blade leading edge protective film, including an adhesive layer 1 and an integrated protective film. The integrated protective film is adhered to a preset area of the blade leading edge surface 4 through the adhesive layer 1; among them, one side of the adhesive layer 1 is adhered to the blade leading edge surface 4, and the other side of the adhesive layer 1 is adhered to the integrated protective film; preferably, the adhesive layer 1 is an epoxy resin layer.
[0025] In Example 1, the integrated protective film includes a bottom layer 2 and an elastic film layer 3. The bottom layer 2 is arranged on the outer surface of the adhesive layer 1, and the elastic film layer 3 is arranged on the outer surface of the bottom layer 2; the length dimension and width dimension of the bottom layer 2 are determined according to the area of the preset area of the blade leading edge surface 4, and the thickness of the bottom layer 2 is less than 100 μm; among them, the bottom layer 2 is a porous glass fiber woven fabric layer. The porous glass fiber woven fabric layer can match the curved surface characteristics of the blade leading edge surface 4 to ensure close fitting on the blade leading edge surface 4; secondly, the porous structure of the porous glass fiber woven fabric layer can more effectively ensure the absorption and penetration of the epoxy resin glue in the adhesive layer 1, thereby ensuring the close fitting between the bottom layer 2 and the blade leading edge surface 4; in addition, the porous structure of the porous glass fiber woven fabric can effectively absorb and discharge moisture, ensuring the dryness of the blade surface and reducing the erosion of the blade by rainwater; preferably, the porous glass fiber woven fabric layer is a porous glass fiber cloth layer, and a number of through hole structures are arranged on the porous glass fiber cloth layer, and the aperture of the through hole structure is 50-500 nm.
[0026] It should be noted that the main function of the bottom layer 2 is to provide basic support and enhance the bonding force between the protective film and the blade leading edge surface; the porous fiberglass fabric not only has good flexibility and tensile strength, but also can absorb and penetrate the epoxy resin glue in the adhesive layer 1 through its porous structure, thereby improving the bonding force between the protective film and the blade. Secondly, the porous fiberglass fabric can also absorb and discharge moisture through its porous structure, reducing the erosion of rainwater on the blade.
[0027] The elastic film layer 3 is made of a colorless and transparent high-elastic paint material. Among them, the elongation at break of the elastic film layer 3 at room temperature is greater than 600%, and the elongation at break at a low temperature of -40°C is greater than 100%. Preferably, the high-elastic paint material is thermoplastic elastomer polyurethane (TPU), that is, the elastic film layer 3 is a thermoplastic elastomer polyurethane layer.
[0028] It should be noted that the elastic film layer 3 can effectively disperse the impact force of environmental factors such as rainwater and dust on the blade, reducing the wear degree of the blade. At the same time, its high elasticity and weather resistance enable the protective film to maintain stable performance in harsh environments for a long time.
[0029] In this embodiment 1, the preset area of the blade leading edge surface 4 is the area of the blade leading edge surface 4 with a preset length in the direction from the blade tip to the blade root. Preferably, the preset length is 10 - 25m.
[0030] In this embodiment 1, the manufacturing process of the integrated protective film is specifically as follows:
[0031] The liquid high-elastic paint material is evenly brushed on the surface of the bottom layer 2. After the liquid high-elastic paint material is cured, a high-elastic film is formed on the surface of the bottom layer 2 to obtain the elastic film layer 3, and then the integrated protective film is obtained. Preferably, the thickness of the integrated protective film is 100 - 2000μm. It should be noted that the integrated protective film has the thickest center point at the leading edge film seam, and the film thickness gradually transitions evenly to the windward and leeward surfaces of the wind turbine blade.
[0032] Test:
[0033] The wind turbine blade leading edge protective film described in this embodiment 1 is subjected to a drum peel test to verify the bonding force of the wind turbine blade leading edge protective film. The specific test process is as follows:
[0034] The wind turbine blade leading edge protective film is set on the blade fiberglass template, and three groups of drum peel tests are carried out by means of drum peeling; as shown in the appendix Figure 2 shown, appendix Figure 2Figure showing the test results of the roller glass of the leading-edge protective film for wind turbine blades is given; among them, Curve 1 is the force-displacement curve of the first group of roller peeling tests, Curve 2 is the force-displacement curve of the second group of roller peeling tests, and Curve 3 is the force-displacement curve of the third group of roller peeling tests; from the attached Figure 2 It can be seen that from the force-displacement curves of the above three groups of roller peeling tests, the peeling strength of the leading-edge protective film of the wind turbine blade is ≥ 40 N / cm, which proves that the bonding force between the leading-edge protective film of the wind turbine blade and the fiberglass template is very reliable.
[0035] For the leading-edge protective film of the wind turbine blade in Embodiment 1, a porous fiberglass woven fabric layer is used as the bottom layer 2 of the integrated protective film. The fiberglass woven fabric layer is the main preparation material of the wind turbine blade. It not only has good flexibility and tensile strength, but also can more effectively ensure the absorption and penetration of epoxy resin due to the designed porous structure. The integrated protective film is directly adhered to the surface of the blade leading edge by the adhesive layer 1, which ensures the close fit between the protective film and the blade and is not easy to fall off.
[0036] Embodiment 2
[0037] Embodiment 2 provides a wind turbine blade, including a wind turbine blade body and a leading-edge protective film for the blade. The leading-edge protective film is arranged on the surface of the blade leading edge of the wind turbine blade body; among them, the leading-edge protective film for the blade adopts the leading-edge protective film for a wind turbine blade described in Embodiment 1 above.
[0038] Specifically, the leading-edge protective film for the blade includes an adhesive layer and an integrated protective film. The integrated protective film is adhered to a preset area on the surface of the blade leading edge through the adhesive layer; among them, one side of the adhesive layer is adhered to the surface of the blade leading edge, and the other side of the adhesive layer is adhered to the integrated protective film; preferably, the adhesive layer is an epoxy resin layer.
[0039] The integrated protective film includes a bottom layer and an elastic film layer. The bottom layer is arranged on the outer surface of the adhesive layer, and the elastic film layer is arranged on the outer surface of the bottom layer; the thickness of the bottom layer is less than 100 μm; among them, the bottom layer is a porous fiberglass woven fabric layer; the elastic film layer is made of a colorless and transparent high-elastic paint material; preferably, the high-elastic paint material is thermoplastic elastomer polyurethane (TPU), that is, the elastic film layer is a thermoplastic elastomer polyurethane layer.
[0040] It should be noted that other structural features and principles of the leading-edge protective film for the blade are detailed in the corresponding description in Embodiment 1 and will not be elaborated here.
[0041] In the second embodiment, when constructing the leading edge protective film of the blade, specifically: First, apply epoxy resin glue to a preset area of the wind turbine blade body to form an adhesive layer 1; then, directly paste the integrated protective film on the surface of the adhesive layer 1. Thus, a protective film can be formed on the surface of the preset area of the wind turbine blade body, and the wind turbine blade is obtained.
[0042] For the leading edge protective film of the wind turbine blade of the present utility model, a porous fiberglass woven fabric layer is used as the bottom layer 2 of the integrated protective film, and an elastic film layer 3 is provided on the surface of the bottom layer 2. The double-layer design of the integrated protective film can effectively combine the strength of the fiberglass woven fabric and the flexibility of the elastic film, providing more comprehensive protection for the leading edge of the wind turbine blade; using a porous fiberglass woven fabric layer as the bottom layer, its porous structure can effectively ensure the absorption and penetration of the adhesive layer, ensuring the close fit between the integrated protective film and the wind turbine blade, improving the bonding effect between the protective film and the blade, and preventing the protective film from falling off; secondly, the porous fiberglass woven fabric layer has high tensile strength and wear resistance, and can effectively resist external impacts and abrasions, protecting the wind turbine blade from damage; using the elastic film layer 3 as the outer layer, it has excellent wear resistance, impact resistance, salt spray resistance, heat and humidity resistance, weather resistance, and thermal shock resistance, which can further increase the protection ability of the blade; the presence of the adhesive layer 1 enables the protective film to be firmly adhered to the preset area of the leading edge of the wind turbine blade, improving the accuracy and efficiency of construction.
[0043] In the present utility model, through the combined action of the double-layer structure, the service life of the wind turbine blade is effectively extended; through the mutual complementation of the strength of the fiberglass cloth layer and the protective performance of the elastic film layer, the erosion of the blade by the harsh environment is jointly resisted. The construction is carried out by means of film sticking, without using harmful substances such as solvents, and the whole construction process is safe and environmentally friendly.
