TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of wind power blade lightning protection, and specifically provides a wind power blade blade lightning receptor fixing device. BACKGROUND
[0002] The fan blade is a very important component of the wind power generation system, and its main function is to convert the kinetic energy of wind into mechanical energy to drive the generator rotor to generate electric energy. However, in the areas where lightning activities are frequent, the fan blade is easy to become the target of lightning, causing serious damage and even destroying the entire fan system. Therefore, taking a series of lightning protection measures is crucial to ensure the safe operation of the fan blade.
[0003] For the wind turbine blade, the lightning protection principle of the blade lightning receptor is to introduce lightning through the lightning receptor on the surface of the blade, and the current is conducted to the metal flange or other structure at the root of the blade through the internal lightning protection wire (down conductor) of the blade, and then guided to the ground through the lightning protection system of the fan itself, to constrain lightning and protect the blade. The installation and positioning of the blade lightning receptor base seriously affect the lightning protection effect of the lightning protection system of the blade. The positioning of the lightning receptor base has very high requirements, and the axial position, chordwise position, angle and height of the lightning receptor base must meet the design requirements. If the position or angle is offset, it will cause the subsequent installation of the lightning receptor to also be offset, causing difficulty in installing the lightning receptor, and there is a potential risk of increasing resistance, poor lightning protection, causing the blade to be struck by lightning, and causing great economic loss.
[0004] The down conductor connection at the base of the existing blade cross lightning receptor is disconnected and then crimped separately. This connection method may cause the down conductor to break at the crimping position after long-term operation of the fan, causing lightning protection failure, and there are special-shaped down conductor connection structures at both ends of the base. The connection method of the special-shaped structure and the base is mostly welding or integral injection molding. The former has a risk of structural reliability, and the latter has a high cost. The blade branch lightning receptor base also has a special-shaped down conductor connection structure, and the connection method is also welding or integral injection molding. The former has a risk of structural reliability, and the latter has a high cost and is not convenient to replace.
