Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of gearbox technology, and in particular to a device for preventing bearing slippage in a fan gearbox. Background Technology

[0002] The gearbox is an important mechanical component in the transmission unit of a wind turbine. Its main function is to transmit the driving force of the motor to the impeller and make it achieve the corresponding speed. This can only be achieved through the speed-increasing effect of the gearbox. Therefore, the gearbox is also called a speed-increasing box.

[0003] During the installation of the internal structure of the wind turbine gearbox, bearing installation is often required. After prolonged use, the commonly used bearings may experience insufficient interference fit between the shaft and the inner ring of the bearing, which can easily lead to bearing misalignment and affect the use of the equipment.

[0004] Therefore, we propose a device to prevent the bearing of a wind turbine gearbox from slipping, in order to solve the problems in the background art. Utility Model Content

[0031] The positioning mechanism 5 includes a connecting plate 51, a liquid storage tank 54, a second locking block 52, a second spring 53, a piston 55, and a threaded rod 56. The connecting plate 51 is fixedly installed at one end of the rotating shaft 2. Multiple second locking blocks 52 are slidably connected to the connecting plate 51. One end of each second locking block 52 is engaged with the inner wall of the bearing 3. Through the cooperative design between the fan gearbox 1, the rotating shaft 2, the bearing 3, the positioning ring 4, and the positioning mechanism 5, the effect of preventing the bearing 3 from running in circles with the rotating shaft 2 and the fan gearbox 1 can be achieved. It can also facilitate the subsequent disassembly and maintenance of the rotating shaft 2, thus enhancing the practicality of the structure.

[0032] In this method, the connecting plate 51 is provided with multiple sliding grooves, and multiple locking blocks 52 slide in the sliding grooves. Springs 53 are fixedly installed in each of the multiple sliding grooves. One end of each spring 53 is fixedly connected to the multiple locking blocks 52. Through the interaction between the multiple locking blocks 52 and the multiple locking grooves, the inner wall of the bearing 3 is positioned. Sealing rings are fixedly fitted on each of the multiple locking blocks 52.

[0033] In this configuration, a liquid storage tank 54 is provided on the connecting plate 51, and multiple connecting grooves are provided on the connecting plate 51. Two ends of the multiple connecting grooves are respectively connected to multiple sliding grooves, and the other ends of the multiple connecting grooves are all connected to the liquid storage tank 54. Hydraulic oil is provided in both the liquid storage tank 54 and the multiple sliding grooves. During the process of the piston 55 squeezing the hydraulic oil, the multiple connecting grooves facilitate the delivery of hydraulic oil to the multiple sliding grooves.

[0034] In this configuration, a piston 55 is movably connected inside the reservoir 54. A threaded rod 56 is rotatably connected to one side of the piston 55. One end of the threaded rod 56 is rotatably connected to the piston 55 via a bearing. The threaded rod 56 is threadedly connected to the connecting plate 51. A rotating plate is fixedly connected to one end of the threaded rod 56. By rotating the threaded rod 56, the threaded rod 56 and the connecting plate 51 undergo threaded transmission, thereby causing the threaded rod 56 to drive the piston 55 to slide and squeeze the hydraulic oil inside the reservoir 54.

[0035] In this method, the inner wall of the bearing 3 is provided with multiple slots 2, and multiple locking blocks 2 52 are respectively connected to the multiple slots 2. Three fixing bolts 10 are threadedly connected to the connecting plate 51. One end of each of the three fixing bolts 10 is threadedly connected to the rotating shaft 2. The connecting plate 51 is fixedly installed on the rotating shaft 2 by the action of the three fixing bolts 10, and the multiple locking blocks 2 52 are respectively engaged with the multiple slots 2 on the inner wall of the bearing 3.

[0036] In this method, the positioning ring 4 is provided with multiple sliding grooves, and each sliding groove is slidably connected with a locking block 6. Each locking block 6 is engaged with the outer wall of the bearing 3. Each locking block 6 is fixedly connected with a spring 7, and one end of each spring 7 is fixedly connected to the positioning ring 4. Through the interaction between the multiple locking blocks 6 and the multiple locking grooves, the outer wall of the bearing 3 is positioned. Each locking block 6 is fixedly fitted with a sealing ring.

[0037] In this method, the positioning ring 4 has an annular cavity 8, which contains hydraulic oil. The positioning ring 4 has multiple connecting grooves, one end of which is connected to multiple sliding grooves, and the other end of which is connected to the annular cavity 8. The outer wall of the bearing 3 has multiple slots, and multiple locking blocks are connected to multiple locking blocks 6. The multiple connecting grooves facilitate the delivery of hydraulic oil to the multiple sliding grooves.

[0038] In this method, a circular tube 9 is sealed and connected to the positioning ring 4. One end of the circular tube 9 extends into the annular cavity 8. A valve is provided on the circular tube 9 to connect one end of the hydraulic pump to the circular tube 9. Hydraulic oil is delivered into the annular cavity 8 through the action of the circular tube 9, which facilitates the delivery of hydraulic oil into the annular cavity 8.

[0039] Working principle: In use, the connecting plate 51 is first fixed on the rotating shaft 2 by the action of three fixing bolts 10, so that multiple locking blocks 52 are respectively engaged with multiple locking grooves on the inner wall of the bearing 3. Then, by rotating the threaded rod 56, the threaded rod 56 and the connecting plate 51 are threadedly driven, so that the threaded rod 56 drives the piston 55 to slide in the reservoir 54 and squeeze the hydraulic oil. At this time, the hydraulic oil is delivered to the multiple sliding grooves on the connecting plate 51 by the action of multiple connecting grooves. Thus, under the action of pressure and the cooperation of piston 55 and threaded rod 56, the multiple locking blocks 52 are limited. At the same time, through the interaction between the multiple locking blocks 52 and the multiple locking grooves, the inner wall of the bearing 3 is positioned, thereby preventing the bearing 3 from running around the rotating shaft 2.

[0040] By connecting the outer wall of bearing 3 to the fan gearbox 1 and installing bearing 3 into positioning ring 4, and connecting multiple slots on the outer wall of bearing 3 to multiple locking blocks 6, one end of the hydraulic pump is connected to the circular pipe 9, and hydraulic oil is supplied to the annular cavity 8 through the action of the circular pipe 9. At the same time, the hydraulic oil is supplied to multiple sliding grooves on positioning ring 4 through the action of multiple connecting grooves. At this time, the pressure force achieves the effect of limiting the locking blocks 6. Afterwards, the valve on the circular pipe 9 is closed and the hydraulic pump is stopped and one end of the hydraulic pump is removed from the circular pipe 9. Thus, through the interaction between the multiple locking blocks 6 and the multiple slots, the outer wall of bearing 3 is positioned, thereby preventing the outer wall of bearing 3 from running in circles with the fan gearbox 1.

[0041] The technological advancements of this invention compared to existing technologies are as follows: the cooperation of various components can prevent the bearing 3 from running in circles with the rotating shaft 2 and the fan gearbox 1, and also facilitates the subsequent disassembly and maintenance of the rotating shaft 2, thus enhancing the practicality of the structure. Moreover, the structure is simple and more practical.
