[0020] The specific implementation of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Figures 1 to 6 As shown: A foldable wind turbine, comprising a support frame 1 as a basis, a generator is arranged at the end of the support frame 1, the stator part of the generator is fixedly connected to the support frame 1, and the rotor part 2 is rotatably supported on the support frame 1, and a plurality of blades 3 uniformly distributed in the circumferential direction are arranged on the outer circumference of the rotor part 2, the blades 3 are rotatably connected to the rotor part 2 through a connecting rod 4, and the end of the connecting rod 4 is a clamping end 5. A connecting bolt 6 located at the central axis of the rotor part 2 is further provided on the support frame 1, and a pressure head 7 is threadedly connected to the connecting bolt 6. When the blade 3 is in a posture perpendicular to the central axis of the rotor part 2, the pressure head 7 can clamp all the clamping ends 5.

[0021] The support frame 1 is provided with a battery slot 8, in which a battery 9 is provided. The battery 9 is connected to the generator through a wind power processing circuit. An L-shaped buckle 10 is provided in the battery slot 8, and a slot 11 matching the L-shaped buckle 10 is provided on the outer wall of the battery 9. A tail end buckle 12 is also provided at the tail end of the battery slot 8, and a buckle spring is provided at the bottom of the tail end buckle 12. An operating handle 13 protruding from the support frame 1 is also provided on the tail end buckle 12.

[0022] A sensor 14 is provided on the bottom plate of the support frame 1, and a trigger block 15 matching the sensor 14 is provided on the rotor part 2. The sensor 14 is connected to a control system, which can also control the buzzer alarm.

[0023] A brake shaft 16 is also movably connected to the bottom plate of the support frame 1, and one end of the brake shaft 16 protrudes from the bottom plate of the support frame 1, and the other end is provided with an arc surface portion that matches the outer wall of the rotor shaft 17, and a friction material layer is provided on the arc surface portion. The brake shaft 16 is connected and coaxial with the rotor part 2, and a brake spring 18 is also sleeved on the brake shaft 16. A limiting ring 19 is provided on the brake shaft 16, and the brake spring 18 is located between the limiting ring 18 and the baffle 20, and the baffle 20 is fixedly connected to the bottom plate of the support frame 1.

[0024] The support frame 1 is provided with a first slot 21 at the rear portion and a second slot 22 at the bottom portion. The axial direction of the first slot 21 and the axial direction of the second slot 22 are perpendicular to each other.

[0025] The working process of the foldable wind turbine of the embodiment of the present invention is as follows: in the non-working state, all the blades 3 are in the folded state, that is, the blades 3 are parallel to the length direction of the support frame 1. At this time, the wind turbine is approximately cylindrical, does not need to occupy a large space, and can be easily carried and moved;

[0026] When it is necessary to use the wind turbine to convert wind energy into electrical energy, first unscrew the pressure head 7 from the connecting bolt 6, and turn all the blades 3 to make the blades 3 swing to a state perpendicular to the length direction of the support frame 1, and then re-thread the pressure head 7 onto the bolt 6. At this time, the edge of the pressure head 7 will press the clamping ends 5 on all the blades 3, thereby fixing the blades 3;

[0027] The support frame of the device is fixed in a windward position. Driven by the wind, the blades 3 drive the rotor part 2 to rotate relative to the support frame 1 (i.e., relative to the stator part). The current generated by the relative rotation of the two is AC power. This AC power is converted into DC power after being processed by the wind power processing circuit and stored in the battery 9.

[0028] During the above working process, every time the rotor part 2 rotates one circle, the trigger block 15 on it will trigger the sensor 14 once. The control system in this device includes a timing module. Therefore, after receiving the trigger signal from the sensor 14, the control system will automatically calculate the rotation speed of the rotor part 2. If the speed is too fast and exceeds the preset warning value, the control system will control the buzzer alarm to operate, and the buzzer alarm will emit a warning sound to remind the operator to intervene in time.

[0029] When the operator finds that the rotation speed is too fast, he can press the part of the brake shaft 16 that protrudes from the bottom plate of the support frame 1 to drive the brake shaft 16 to move in the direction of the rotor shaft 17. When the arc surface part at the end of the brake shaft 16 contacts the outer wall of the rotor shaft 17, specifically when the friction material layer contacts the outer wall of the rotor shaft 17, the rotation speed of the rotor shaft 17 (and the rotor part 2 fixedly connected thereto) will gradually decrease under the action of friction. In this way, the rotation speed of the rotor part 2 can be reduced. After releasing the brake shaft 16, under the action of the brake spring 18, the brake shaft 16 pops out again, and its arc surface part no longer contacts the rotor shaft 17, so the rotor part 2 can rotate normally.

[0030] When the battery 9 needs to be replaced, it is only necessary to press the operating handle 13 downward to drive the tail end buckle 12 downward. After the tail end buckle 12 gives way, there is no obstacle in the tail end direction of the battery 9. The battery 9 can be pulled out of the battery slot 8 by pulling it backward; when installing the battery, the battery 9 is pushed inward while the tail end buckle 12 remains in place. All L-shaped buckles 10 will enter the corresponding slots 11 on the battery 9. Since the buckles and slots are both L-shaped, the battery 9 can be prevented from moving in a direction perpendicular to the bottom surface of the battery slot 8. After releasing your hand, under the action of the buckle spring, the tail end buckle 12 rises again and is stuck at the tail end of the battery 9, which can prevent the battery 9 from moving backward along the plane direction of the battery slot 8, thereby fixing the battery 9 in the battery slot 8.

[0031] During actual work, an auxiliary wooden stick or rod can be inserted into the first slot 21 or the second slot 22 to lift the device to a higher place. The axes of the first slot 21 and the second slot 22 are perpendicular to each other, and you can choose which slot to use according to different actual conditions.
