Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of wind power gear boxes, in particular to a fixing structure of a wind power gear box and a wind power gear box. Background Art

[0002] The wind turbine gearbox is a key component of the wind turbine generator. Currently, the elastic support of the wind turbine gearbox with a three-point support structure adopts a pin structure. A connecting ear is installed in the gearbox body, and an elastic pin is installed in the elastic pin hole of the connecting ear. The connecting ear and the elastic pin of the wind turbine gearbox adopt an interference fit. In the following situations, the connecting ear and the elastic pin will be axially misaligned.

[0003] 1. When the axial clearance of the main bearing shaft is too large or fails, the gearbox will be subjected to axial force, causing the connecting ear and the elastic pin to produce axial displacement.

[0004] 2. When the bolts of the elastic fixing assembly that fixes the elastic pin are loose or the elastomer is damaged, additional bending moment will be generated in the connecting ear, causing the elastic pin to move axially.

[0005] Despite significant advancements in wind turbine gearbox design, manufacturing, and maintenance technologies with the rapid development of the wind power industry, axial misalignment between the coupling lug and the elastic pin remains a common operational fault in wind turbine gearboxes. This failure can cause the gearbox to malfunction and potentially lead to severe mechanical damage to the entire wind turbine, even requiring the turbine drive train to be removed from service for repairs.

[0006] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a fixing structure of a wind turbine gearbox and a wind turbine gearbox to solve the above technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0007] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a fixing structure of a wind turbine gearbox and a wind turbine gearbox, which can maintain relative fixation between the wind turbine gearbox and a fixing assembly.

[0015] As a preferred technical solution for the fixing structure of the wind turbine gearbox, the first small-diameter section is interference-fitted with the shaft sleeve.

[0016] As a preferred technical solution for the fixing structure of the wind turbine gearbox, the second small-diameter section is interference-fitted with the support seat.

[0017] As a preferred technical solution for the fixing structure of the wind turbine gearbox, the outer peripheral wall of the second small-diameter section is provided with anti-slip patterns.

[0018] As a preferred technical solution for the fixing structure of the wind turbine gearbox, anti-slip grooves are provided on both axial end surfaces of the second large-diameter section.

[0019] As a preferred technical solution for the fixing structure of the above-mentioned wind turbine gearbox, the fixing assembly further includes a nacelle base, and at least one of the two above-mentioned support bases is detachably connected to the above-mentioned nacelle base.

Among them, the fixing assembly 110 includes two fixed and spaced support seats 111; one end of the connecting ear 120 is fixed to the wind turbine gearbox 200, and the other end is clamped between the two support seats 111; the pin shaft 130 includes a first large diameter section 131 and two first small diameter sections 132, the two first small diameter sections 132 are distributed at the axial ends of the first large diameter section 131, and the first large diameter section 131 is fixedly inserted in the connecting ear 120; a shaft sleeve 140 is fixedly sleeved on each first small diameter section 132, the shaft sleeve 140 includes a second large diameter section 142 and a second small diameter section 141, and the second small diameter section 141 is fixedly inserted in the support seat 111, one side end face of the second large diameter section 142 abuts against the support seat 111, and the other side end face abuts against the axial end face of the first large diameter section 131 and the connecting ear 120.

The two first small diameter sections 132 are respectively recorded as the first small diameter section 132A and the first small diameter section 132B. A first shaft shoulder A133a is formed between the first small diameter section 132A and the first large diameter section 131, and a first shaft shoulder B133b is formed between the first small diameter section 132B and the first large diameter section 131. The first large diameter section 131 is fixedly inserted in the second plug-in hole, and the two first small diameter sections 132 can be respectively inserted in the two support seats 111. It is assumed that the first small diameter section 132A is inserted in the first plug-in hole A of the support seat A, and the first small diameter section 132B is inserted in the first plug-in hole B of the support seat B. The first shaft shoulder A133a and the second end face A121 are in the same plane, and the first shaft shoulder B133b and the second end face B122 are in the same plane.

[0044] The sleeve 140 includes two sleeves, which are respectively denoted as sleeve A and sleeve B. Sleeve A includes a second small diameter section 141A and a second large diameter section 142A, and a second shoulder A143a is formed between the second small diameter section 141A and the second large diameter section 142A. Sleeve B includes a second small diameter section 141B and a second large diameter section 142B, and a second shoulder B143b is formed between the second small diameter section 141B and the second large diameter section 142B.

The sleeve B is sleeved on the first small diameter section 132B of the pin 130, and the second small diameter section 141B is fixedly inserted in the first plug-in hole B of the support seat B, and is clamped between the first small diameter section 132B and the support seat B; the second large diameter section 142B is exposed outside the first plug-in hole B, and one side end face of the second large diameter section 142B is the second shoulder B143b, which abuts against the first end face B111b, and the other side end face of the second large diameter section 142B abuts against the first shoulder B133b of the pin 130 and the second end face B122 of the connecting ear 120 at the same time.

[0045] In this way, when the connecting ear 120 has a tendency to move along the first direction toward the side of the support seat A, the second end face A121 abuts against the axial end face of the second large diameter section 142A to prevent relative displacement; when the connecting ear 120 has a tendency to move along the first direction toward the side of the support seat B, the second end face B122 abuts against the axial end face of the second large diameter section 142B to prevent relative displacement. When the pin 130 has a tendency to move toward the side of the support seat A along the first direction, the first end face A111a of the first large diameter section 131 of the pin 130 abuts against the axial end face of the second large diameter section 142A, and at the same time, the first small diameter section 132B of the pin 130 moves together with the sleeve B, so that the axial end face of the second large diameter section 142B of the sleeve B abuts against the first end face B111b of the connecting ear 120 to prevent relative displacement; when the pin 130 has a tendency to move toward the side of the support seat B along the first direction, the first end face B111b abuts against the axial end face of the second large diameter section 142B, and at the same time, the first small diameter section 132A of the pin 130 moves together with the sleeve A, so that the axial end face of the second large diameter section 142A of the sleeve A abuts against the first end face A111a of the connecting ear 120 to prevent relative displacement. In this way, the connection ear 120 , the pin shaft 130 and the fixing assembly 110 can be kept relatively fixed, thereby maintaining the relative fixation between the wind turbine gearbox 200 and the fixing assembly 110 .

[0046] Optionally, the first large diameter section 131 of the pin 130 forms an interference fit with the connecting ear 120. Specifically, the radius of the second insertion hole of the connecting ear 120 is smaller than the radius of the first large diameter section 131 of the pin 130. Thus, when the first large diameter section 131 of the pin 130 is inserted into the second insertion hole of the connecting ear 120, an interference fit is formed, thereby ensuring the relative fixation of the pin 130 and the connecting ear 120, and the structure is simple and easy to assemble.

[0047] Optionally, the first small-diameter section 132 of the pin 130 forms an interference fit with the sleeve 140. Specifically, the inner diameter of the sleeve 140 is smaller than the radius of the first small-diameter section 132 of the pin 130. Thus, when the first small-diameter section 132 of the pin 130 is inserted into the sleeve 140, an interference fit is formed. This ensures that the pin 130 and the sleeve 140 are relatively fixed, and the structure is simple and easy to assemble.

[0048] Optionally, the second small-diameter section 141 of the sleeve 140 is interference-fitted with the support base 111. Specifically, the radius of the first insertion hole of the support base 111 is smaller than the radius of the second small-diameter section 141 of the sleeve 140. Thus, when the second small-diameter section 141 of the sleeve 140 is inserted into the first insertion hole of the support base 111, an interference fit is formed. This ensures that the sleeve 140 and the support base 111 are relatively fixed, and the structure is simple, making assembly easy.

[0049] Optionally, the outer wall of the second small diameter section 141 of the sleeve 140 is provided with anti-skid lines. The anti-skid lines can increase the friction between the second small diameter section 141 of the sleeve 140 and the sleeve 140, further maintaining the relative stability of the connecting ear 120 and the fixing assembly 110.

[0050] Optionally, anti-slip grooves are provided on both axial end surfaces of the second large diameter section 142 of the sleeve 140. This can increase the friction between the sleeve 140 and the support seat 111 of the fixing assembly 110 and between the connecting ear 120 and the first large diameter section 131 of the pin 130.

[0051] Optionally, the fixing assembly 110 further includes a cabin base 112, and at least one of the two support bases 111 is detachably connected to the cabin base 112, so as to facilitate installation.

[0052] Optionally, the shaft sleeve 140 is a steel shaft sleeve. The shaft sleeve 140 is made of steel, has good wear resistance, and has a long service life, which can reduce the wear of the pin 130 of the connecting ear 120.
