Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of wind turbine pitch slip ring technology, specifically a novel wind turbine pitch slip ring. Background Technology

[0002] The pitch slip ring of a wind turbine generator set is responsible for communicating with the rotating body and transmitting electrical control signals. The pitch slip ring is usually installed at the low-speed shaft end of the gearbox and mainly consists of two parts: a rotating part and a stationary part. It transmits power, control signals and communication signals to the pitch control system. The wind turbine pitch slip ring plays a crucial role in the safety and stability of the pitch control system.

[0003] Application number CN202020765983.9 discloses a novel wind turbine pitch slip ring, including a housing. A rotating shaft is connected to the inner wall of the housing, and a cleaning brush is installed at the bottom of the inner wall of the housing, while an electric brush is installed at the top of the inner wall of the housing. A handle is pushed to move a locking block to one side, causing the locking block to disengage from the inner wall of the locking slot. At this point, the dustproof plate can be removed. The cleaning brush installed on the inner wall of the housing cleans the dust adhering to the inner wall of the rotating slide. However, this type of wind turbine pitch slip ring uses a fixed cleaning brush to clean the dust on the slide, resulting in poor cleaning effectiveness and inconvenience for the slip ring's use. Furthermore, the internal heat dissipation of the slip ring is poor, and prolonged high temperatures can easily damage the slip ring. Utility Model Content

[0026] Please see Figure 1-3 This utility model provides a novel embodiment of a wind turbine pitch slip ring: A novel wind turbine pitch slip ring includes a housing 1 and a cooling chamber 2. The housing 1 includes an air outlet 101 and an air inlet 102. Multiple sets of air outlets 101 are opened at one end of the housing 1 to facilitate the flow of air inside the housing 1 with outside air. Multiple sets of air inlets 102 are opened at the other end of the housing 1 to deliver cool air into the housing 1. The cooling chamber 2 includes a semiconductor cooler 201, a temperature guide plate 202, and a blower 203. The semiconductor cooler 201 is located at the top of the cooling chamber 2, and multiple sets of temperature guide plates 202 are located at the cooling end of the semiconductor cooler 201, and the temperature guide plates 202 penetrate through the cooling chamber. Inside the cooling chamber 2, two sets of blowers 203 are symmetrically arranged at one end of the cooling chamber 2. They can generate cold air and deliver it to the inside of the housing 1 for cooling, preventing the operating temperature of the blower pitch slip ring from getting too high. Inside the housing 1, there is a cleaning roller 204. The outer side of the cleaning roller 204 is equipped with multiple sets of bristles 205 to facilitate cleaning the dust in the slide rail 301. A servo motor 206 is installed at the bottom of one end of the housing 1. The output end of the servo motor 206 is connected to a rotating shaft 207 that passes through the inside of the cleaning roller 204. The servo motor 206 and the rotating shaft 207 can drive the cleaning roller 204 to rotate. The rotating bristles 205 have a better cleaning effect on the inside of the slide rail 301.

[0027] Please refer to this carefully. Figure 1 and Figure 3The housing 1 has a slip ring rotating roller 3 inside, and multiple sets of slide rails 301 are opened on the outer side of the slip ring rotating roller 3. A rotating rod 302 is provided in the middle of the housing 1, which penetrates into the slip ring rotating roller 3. The rotating rod 302 makes the rotation of the slip ring rotating roller 3 more stable. The inner wall of the housing 1 has a mounting block 303. Multiple sets of brushes 304 are provided at the bottom of the mounting block 303, so that the brushes 304 contact the slide rails 301, making the use of the wind turbine pitch slip ring more stable.

[0028] Please refer to this carefully. Figure 2 and Figure 3 The housing 1 is connected to the cooling chamber 2 via the air outlet 101, allowing cold air to enter the interior of the housing 1. The cooling chamber 2 is welded to one end of the housing 1. The top of the cooling chamber 2 is provided with a mounting groove, through which the temperature guide plate 202 can be extended into the interior of the cooling chamber 2. The semiconductor cooler 201 is detachably connected to the cooling chamber 2 via fixing bolts, allowing the semiconductor cooler 201 to be installed on the top of the cooling chamber 2. An air guide block is provided at the end of the cooling chamber 2 near the air outlet 101, facilitating the guidance of cold air to the air outlet 101 and its delivery into the interior of the housing 1. The end of the cooling chamber 2 away from the housing 1 is provided with multiple sets of mounting pipes. The blower 203 is detachably connected to the cooling chamber 2 via the mounting pipes. The blower 203 is fixedly installed by detaching the connection, which facilitates the generation of airflow to the interior of the cooling chamber 2. The servo motor 206 is detachably connected to the housing 1 by fixing bolts. The cleaning roller 204 has mounting holes inside, and the cleaning roller 204 is detachably connected to the rotating shaft 207 through the mounting holes, so that the cleaning roller 204 can be installed on the outside of the rotating shaft 207. One end of the housing 1 is equipped with a bearing, and one end of the rotating shaft 207 passes through the bearing. The cleaning roller 204 is connected to the servo motor 206 through the rotating shaft 207. The servo motor 206 can drive the cleaning roller 204 to rotate, which facilitates the cleaning of dust in the slide 301 and makes the slip ring more stable.

[0029] Please refer to this carefully. Figure 1 and Figure 3 The brush 304 is detachably connected to the mounting block 303 by fixing bolts, so as to fix the brush 304. The middle position inside the slip ring rotating roller 3 is provided with a fixing hole, and the rotating rod 302 passes through the fixing hole, so that the slip ring rotating roller 3 and the rotating rod 302 can be installed together. Bearings are provided at the middle positions of both ends inside the housing 1. The rotating rod 302 is rotatably connected to the housing 1 through the bearings, so that the rotation of the slip ring rotating roller 3 is more stable.

[0030] Working principle: When the power is turned on, the brush 304 contacts the slide rail 301 on the outside of the rotating roller 3 of the slip ring, and the bristles 205 on the outside of the cleaning roller 204 contact the slide rail 301. The servo motor 206 drives the rotating shaft 207 to rotate in both directions, thereby driving the bristles 205 to rotate in both directions to clean the dust in the slide rail 301. The cleaning effect of the dust in the slide rail 301 makes the performance of the fan pitch slip ring better. The low temperature end of the semiconductor cooler 201 is transmitted to the temperature guide plate 202, and the blower 203 generates airflow to the interior of the cooling chamber 2. The low temperature temperature guide plate 202 cools the interior of the cooling chamber 2. The cold air generated by the blower 203 enters the interior of the housing 1 through the air inlet 102 to cool the interior of the housing 1. It is best to exhaust the air from the air outlet 101 for better cooling effect on the fan pitch slip ring and avoid damage to the fan pitch slip ring caused by high temperature.

[0031] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model, and common knowledge regarding specific structures and characteristics is not described in detail here. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this utility model is not limited to the details of the above exemplary embodiments, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this utility model. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered exemplary and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this utility model is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this utility model. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
