DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0033] The following will be combined with the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0034] In the specific embodiment of the present invention, see Figure 1-Figure 4, a wind turbine blade for a wind turbine, the wind turbine blade is mounted on a rotating hub 4, the rotating hub is mounted on a chassis, the chassis is mounted on a tower, a base is provided at the bottom of the tower, and the base is mounted on the ground;
[0035] The fan blades include a first fan blade 1, a second fan blade 2 and a third fan blade 3, and the first fan blade 1, the second fan blade 2 and the third fan blade 3 are mounted on the rotating hub 4 in a centrosymmetrical manner;
[0036] In order to improve the ability of the fan blades to resist typhoons, the first fan blade 1, the second fan blade 2 and the third fan blade 3 are improved. Therefore, the first fan blade 1 and the second fan blade 2 are both set as storage blades, and the third fan blade 3 is a fixed blade;
[0037] Since the resistance is strongest when the fan blades are arranged downward and the three fan blades are arranged in the same direction, the first fan blade 1 and the second fan blade 2 are arranged to be parallel to the third fan blade 3 after being stored.
[0038] In the specific embodiment of the present invention, see Figure 1-Figure 4 The first fan blade 1 includes a first base 11 and a first extension 12, the first base 11 is mounted on the rotating hub 4, and the first extension 12 is rotatably mounted on the first base 11 through a first rotating mechanism 5;
[0039] The second fan blade 2 includes a second base 21 and a second extension portion 22 . The second base 21 is mounted on the rotating hub 4 . The second extension portion 22 is rotatably mounted on the second base 21 via a second rotating mechanism.
[0040] In the specific embodiment of the present invention, see Figure 1-Figure 4 , the first rotating mechanism 5 includes a first hemispherical seat 51, a first rotating motor 53, a first output shaft 54 and a second hemispherical seat 52;
[0041] The first hemispherical seat 51 and the second hemispherical seat 52 are rotatably connected to realize the direction change of the first extension portion 12, thereby realizing the folding of the first fan blade 1;
[0042] The first hemispherical seat 51 is provided at the connection end of the first base 11;
[0043] The second hemispherical seat 52 is provided at the connection end of the first extension portion 12;
[0044] A first stepped mounting hole 511 is provided in the first hemispherical seat 51. The first stepped mounting hole 511 provides a mounting space for the first rotary motor 53. A first connecting flange 531 is mounted on the first rotary motor 53. The first connecting flange 531 is mounted in the first stepped mounting hole 511 by bolts.
[0045] The first output shaft 54 is connected to the first rotating motor 53;
[0046] A first through hole 521 is provided in the second hemispherical seat 52 , and the first output shaft 54 is sleeved in the first through hole 521 ;
[0047] The first output shaft 54 is mounted in the second hemispherical seat by means of bolts;
[0048] The second rotating mechanism has the same structure as the first rotating mechanism 5 .
[0049] In the specific embodiment of the present invention, see Figure 1-Figure 4 , a first limiting flange 55 is installed at the outer end of the first stepped mounting hole 511, and the first limiting flange 55 is mounted on the connecting end of the first hemispherical seat 51 by bolts;
[0050] The first limiting flange 55 limits the first rotating motor 53 to improve the stability of the first rotating motor 53 during operation.
[0051] In the specific embodiment of the present invention, see Figure 1-Figure 4 The end of the first through hole 521 is connected to a plug 56 through a thread, and a sealing structure needs to be provided at the end of the plug 56.
[0052] In the specific embodiment of the present invention, see Figure 1-Figure 4 In order to realize the connection between the first output shaft 53 and the second hemispherical seat 52 , the end of the first output shaft 53 is set to be cylindrical to provide space for the connection between the first output shaft 53 and the second hemispherical seat 52 .
[0053] In the specific embodiment of the present invention, see Figure 1-Figure 4 , as viewed from the main view direction, specifically see 1 and 2, the angle between the docking surface of the first hemispherical seat 51 and the second hemispherical seat 52 and the axis of the first extension portion 12 is 30°. At this time, when the second hemispherical seat rotates 180°, the first extension portion moves 120° in the main view, that is, the first extension portion is vertically downward.
[0054] In the specific embodiment of the present invention, see Figure 1-Figure 4 , the end of the third fan blade is vertically downward when the rotating hub stops urgently.
[0055] In the specific embodiment of the present invention, see Figure 1-Figure 4 When an emergency stop occurs due to typhoon or other weather conditions, the first rotating motor 53 of the first rotating mechanism 5 starts working, and the first output shaft 54 of the first rotating motor 53 drives the second hemispherical seat 52 to rotate 180 degrees. The first extension portion is equivalent to rotating 120 degrees in the vertical plane. At this time, the first extension portion 12 is just vertically downward, so that the first extension portion 12 is arranged parallel to the third fan blade 3;
[0056] Similarly, the second rotating mechanism drives the second extension portion 22 vertically downward;
[0057] The first extension portion 12, the second extension portion 22, and the third fan blade 3 are all vertically downward, which effectively improves the ability to resist external forces, improves the ability of the fan blade to resist adverse weather, and effectively extends its service life;
[0058] Since the first fan blade 1 and the second fan blade 2 are both provided with a first rotating mechanism 5 and a second rotating mechanism that can be accommodated, it is necessary to provide a counterweight structure 31 on the third fan blade 3. At the same time, for the sake of aesthetics, the counterweight structure is set to a spherical shape, which is the same as the appearance of the first fan blade 1 and the second fan blade 2.
[0059] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
