Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of wind turbine generator sets, in particular to a device for monitoring the internal bolt fracture of a wind turbine generator set based on acoustic emission. Background Art
[0002] The wind turbine internal bolt fracture monitoring device is a device specially designed to monitor the status of the internal bolts of the wind turbine in real time, ensuring the safety and reliability of the wind turbine. At the same time, it can effectively reduce the failure shutdown of the wind turbine due to bolt fracture, improve the reliability and maintenance efficiency of the unit operation, reduce operating costs, and extend the service life of the equipment.
[0003] After searching, the Chinese patent number CN221667678U discloses a wind turbine bolt fracture monitoring device. The probe is removed from between the first plywood and the second plywood, and the wire is removed from the hook. In this way, the acoustic emission instrument can perform detailed monitoring of each bolt connected to the wind turbine through the wire and the probe. There is no need to install a detector on each bolt, so the actual use cost is lower. Moreover, the bolt fracture monitoring scheme in the device will not be affected by loose bolts, etc., and the monitoring accuracy is higher. After the bolt fracture monitoring work is completed, the wire can be wrapped around the hook, and then the barrier rod can be pulled to the right so that the barrier rod cooperates with the corresponding fourth vertical plate to squeeze the spring, causing the spring to undergo elastic deformation, and then the probe is placed between the first plywood and the second plywood, and the barrier rod is loosened so that the first plywood and the second plywood cooperate with the spring to clamp the probe, which is convenient for carrying and organizing.
[0004] However, it is difficult for the above-mentioned device to protect the probe during use, which makes it easy for the probe to collide and rub against the base plate, causing scratches, damage to the probe surface or loosening of internal components, which not only affects the normal use of the probe, but also greatly shortens its service life, increases the replacement frequency and maintenance cost. At the same time, storing the probe in an unstable environment will lead to unstable probe performance, false alarms or missed alarms, thereby affecting the operation safety and stability of the entire wind turbine. Based on this, the utility model designs a wind turbine internal bolt fracture monitoring device based on acoustic emission to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
