Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0017] Please see Figure 1-3 This utility model provides a technical solution: a positioning device for the web and root of a wind turbine blade, including a base 1. The base 1 has a square groove 2 inside. A pair of limiting rods 4 are connected between the inner walls of the square groove 2. A bidirectional lead screw 5 is rotatably connected between the inner walls of the square groove 2. One end of the bidirectional lead screw 5, located outside the base 1, is connected to a third knob 21. A pair of moving blocks 3 are threaded onto the bidirectional lead screw 5. Both moving blocks 3 are slidably mounted on the pair of limiting rods 4. A pair of vertical plates 6 are provided at the upper end of each pair of moving blocks 3. Each of the vertical plates 6 is provided with a height adjustment mechanism. The height adjustment mechanism includes a first sliding groove 7 formed in one side wall of the vertical plate 6. A first sliding rod 8 is connected between the upper and lower walls of the first sliding groove 7. A first threaded rod 9 is rotatably connected between the upper and lower walls of the first sliding groove 7. A first knob 11 is connected to the upper end of the first threaded rod 9 and located outside the vertical plate 6. A first slider 10 is threadedly connected to the first threaded rod 9. The first slider 10 is slidably mounted on the first sliding rod 8. A pair of clamping components are installed on the side wall of the first slider 10.

[0018] In this embodiment, the clamping assembly includes a connecting plate 12 installed on the side wall of the first slider 10. A cylinder 14 is provided inside the connecting plate 12. A second threaded rod 15 is rotatably connected inside the cylinder 14. One end of the second threaded rod 15 is connected to a second knob 13. A sleeve rod 18 is movably inserted inside the cylinder 14. The sleeve rod 18 is threadedly connected to the second threaded rod 15. A pair of second sliding grooves 17 are provided on the inner wall of the cylinder 14. A pair of second sliders 16 are provided on the side wall of the sleeve rod 18. The pair of second sliders 16 are slidably installed in the pair of second sliding grooves 17 respectively. A clamping plate 19 is hinged to the other end of the sleeve rod 18.

[0019] In this embodiment, the pair of clamping components connected to the side wall of the first slider 10 are arranged in a mirror-symmetrical manner.

[0020] In this embodiment, the clamping plate 19 is further configured to have an anti-slip layer on its wall surface.

[0021] In this embodiment, each pair of limiting rods 4 is provided with a pair of limiting plates 20.

[0022] Its detailed connection method is a well-known technology in this field. The following mainly introduces the working principle and process, and the specific work is as follows.

[0023] Example: The unassembled blade root and web portions can be fixedly mounted on the moving block 3. The specific installation process is as follows: the web is placed between a pair of vertical plates 6, with the installation axis as the reference. The first knob 11 can be turned to rotate the first threaded rod 9. The rotation of the first threaded rod 9 causes the first slider 10 to slide on the first slide rod 8. Then, the second knob 13 is turned to rotate the second threaded rod 15. The rotation of the second threaded rod 15 causes the sleeve rod 18 to extend and retract. The second slider 16 always slides on the second slide groove 17, which has a limiting effect. The extension and retraction of the sleeve rod 18 causes the clamping plate 19 to move up and down. The clamping plate 19 rotates and the anti-slip layer on the wall contacts the web. By moving the two pairs of clamping plates 19 relative to each other and pressing against the curvature of the web, the web is fixed. The installation process of the blade root is the same. The third knob 21 is turned manually to rotate the bidirectional screw 5. The rotation of the bidirectional screw 5 causes a pair of moving blocks 3 to move relative to each other along the limiting rod 4. The blade root contacts the web portion for bonding.

[0024] It should be noted that in this paper, relational terms such as first and second are used only to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations.
