[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cleaning device technology, and in particular to a cleaning device for the wall of a wind power generation tower. Background Technology
[0002] Wind turbine tower cleaning refers to the cleaning and maintenance of the external wall of the wind turbine tower to remove pollutants and ensure equipment safety and efficiency. Long-term accumulation of pollutants such as dust, salt spray, and oil on the tower surface will reduce its surface smoothness, affect the airflow efficiency of the wind turbine, and may corrode the coating or steel structure. In coastal areas, the pollution problem is particularly prominent due to the influence of salt spray and typhoons.
[0003] Wind turbine tower walls are typically cleaned manually by workers or using cleaning equipment. Due to prolonged exposure to wind and sun, wind turbine tower walls are frequently affected by sandstorms, oil stains, insects, and acid rain. Simply rinsing with water cannot effectively remove the accumulated mechanical oil and other mixed contaminants. Furthermore, the top of the wind turbine tower wall has certain blind spots, making it difficult to adjust the nozzle angle for effective cleaning. Therefore, this application provides a wind turbine tower wall cleaning device to address these issues. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a wind power tower wall cleaning device to effectively remove the mixed stains such as mechanical oil accumulated on the existing tower wall, and to quickly adjust the angle of the nozzle to effectively clean the dead corners at the top installation position of the tower wall.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0006] A wind power tower wall cleaning device includes a cleaning frame, an internal cleaning plate, a water tank assembly on the upper surface of the cleaning plate, fixing frames inserted on both sides of the upper surface of the cleaning frame, a drone body on the upper surface of the fixing frames, a drone motor inserted on the surface of the drone body, a drone fan blade inserted at one end of the drone motor, a heating plate inserted on the upper surface of the cleaning frame, a heat insulation plate inserted at the inner top of the cleaning frame, and a high-pressure water pump and a nozzle assembly arranged sequentially from front to back on the upper surface of the cleaning plate.
[0007] Optionally, the water tank assembly includes a cleaning water tank, a water tank cover, a water tank pipe, a clamp, and a sensor. The upper surface of the cleaning water tank is provided with a water tank cover, a water tank pipe is inserted into the lower part of one side of the cleaning water tank, a clamp is provided at one end of the water tank pipe, and a sensor is inserted into the lower part of one side of the cleaning water tank.
[0008] Optionally, the nozzle assembly includes a nozzle base, a nozzle motor, a rotating base, a nozzle tube, and a cleaning nozzle. The nozzle motor is inserted into the upper surface of the nozzle base, one end of the nozzle motor is threaded through the rotating base, the nozzle tube is inserted into the interior of the rotating base, and a cleaning nozzle is inserted into one end of the nozzle tube.
[0009] Optionally, one end of the nozzle motor is connected to a motor threaded post, and the lower surface of the rotating seat is provided with a rotating threaded hole, the internal thread of which passes through the motor threaded post.
[0010] Optionally, a nozzle threaded hole is provided on one side of the upper surface of the cleaning plate, and nozzle threaded seats are provided on both sides of the nozzle assembly. The nozzle assembly is installed inside the nozzle threaded hole of the cleaning plate by nozzle bolts.
[0011] Optionally, the upper surface of the cleaning plate is provided with a device battery, and the number of drone motors and drone fan blades is four.
[0012] Optionally, one end of the nozzle assembly is connected to a connecting water pipe, and the other end of the connecting water pipe is fitted with a water tank assembly.
[0013] Optionally, the upper surface of the cleaning rack has threaded fixing bolts on both sides, the lower surface of the fixing frame has threaded fixing holes, and the upper part of the cleaning rack is fitted with a fixing frame by fixing bolts.

[0016] In the above solution, the water pipe is fixed to one end of the water tank pipe by setting a clamp, and the treated cleaning hot water is added into the cleaning water tank. The heating plate is activated to heat and keep the cleaning hot water in the cleaning water tank at a certain temperature. The drone motor drives the drone's fan blades to rotate and move the drone body. The high-pressure water pump draws the cleaning hot water and sprays it out through the cleaning nozzle at one end of the nozzle pipe. In this way, the wall of the wind power generation tower can be cleaned quickly with cleaning hot water. The hot water can quickly dissolve the mixed stains such as mechanical oil accumulated on the wall. The high-pressure hot water can physically peel off various sticky stains, which is more efficient, time-saving, labor-saving and labor-saving.
[0017] By installing a sensor on the lower side of the cleaning water tank, personnel can quickly determine whether there is still hot water left inside. This reduces the risk of the high-pressure water pump running dry and being damaged if personnel are unaware that the hot water has been used up. The nozzle motor drives the rotating seat to rotate the nozzle pipe and cleaning nozzle to adjust the angle. The rotating seat can be quickly installed and removed from the motor threaded post on the nozzle motor. Rotating the nozzle bolts allows for quick installation and removal of the nozzle assembly on the cleaning plate. This allows for rapid adjustment of the cleaning nozzle angle, facilitating cleaning of different locations on the wind turbine tower wall and reducing the inability to clean some dead corners at the top of the wind turbine tower wall.

[0032] As shown in Figures 1 and 5, an embodiment of this utility model provides a wind power tower wall cleaning device, including a cleaning frame 1. The cleaning frame 1 has a cleaning plate 2 inside, and a water tank assembly 3 is provided on the upper surface of the cleaning plate 2. The water tank assembly 3 includes a cleaning water tank 301, a water tank cover 302, a water tank pipe 303, a clamp 304, and a sensor 305. The upper surface of the cleaning water tank 301 has the water tank cover 302. A water tank pipe 303 is inserted into the lower part of one side of the cleaning water tank 301. A clamp 304 is provided at one end of the water tank pipe 303. A sensor 305 is inserted into the lower part of one side of the cleaning water tank 301. The sensor 305 is a water level sensor, which is an instrument that can convert the water level parameter of the measured point into a corresponding electrical signal in real time. Its working principle... The principle is as follows: The water level sensor inside the container transmits the detected water level signal to the controller. The computer inside the controller compares the measured water level signal with the set signal, calculates the deviation, and then, based on the nature of the deviation, issues open and close commands to the water supply electric valve to ensure that the container reaches the set water level. After the water inlet procedure is completed, the computer in the temperature control section issues an open command to the electric valve supplying the heat medium, and the system begins to heat the water in the container. When the set temperature is reached, the controller issues a valve close command to cut off the heat source, and the system enters the heat preservation state. During the programming process, it is ensured that the electric regulating valve controlling the heat source does not open if the system has not reached the safe water level, thereby avoiding heat loss and accidents. The upper surface of the cleaning rack 1 has two sides with... The upper surface of the cleaning frame 1 has two threaded fixing bolts, and the lower surface of the fixing frame 4 has fixing threaded holes. The upper part of the cleaning frame 1 is equipped with the fixing frame 4 by fixing bolts. The upper surface of the fixing frame 4 is equipped with the drone body 5. The surface of the drone body 5 is inserted with the drone motor 6. One end of the drone motor 6 is inserted with the drone fan blade 7. The upper surface of the cleaning plate 2 is equipped with the equipment battery 201. There are four drone motors 6 and drone fan blades 7. The upper surface of the cleaning frame 1 is inserted with the heating plate 8. The upper surface of the cleaning frame 1 has a heating groove. The heating plate 8 is inserted inside the heating groove. The inner top of the cleaning frame 1 is inserted with the heat insulation plate 9. The upper surface of the cleaning plate 2 is equipped with a high-pressure water pump 10 and a nozzle assembly 11 from front to back. Component 11 includes a nozzle holder 111, a nozzle motor 112, a rotating seat 113, a nozzle tube 114, and a cleaning nozzle 115. The nozzle motor 112 is inserted into the upper surface of the nozzle holder 111. One end of the nozzle motor 112 is threaded through the rotating seat 113. The nozzle tube 114 is inserted into the interior of the rotating seat 113. One end of the nozzle tube 114 is inserted into the cleaning nozzle 115. One end of the nozzle motor 112 is connected to a motor threaded post. A rotating threaded hole is formed on the lower surface of the rotating seat 113, and the internal thread of the rotating threaded hole passes through the motor threaded post. A nozzle threaded hole is formed on one side of the upper surface of the cleaning plate 2. Spray head threaded seats are formed on both sides of the nozzle assembly 11. The nozzle assembly 11 is installed inside the nozzle threaded hole of the cleaning plate 2 via nozzle bolts.One end of the nozzle assembly 11 is connected to a connecting water pipe, and the other end of the connecting water pipe is fitted with a water tank assembly 3.
[0033] By opening clamp 304, the connecting water pipe at one end of nozzle pipe 114 is inserted into water tank pipe 303. Closing clamp 304 secures the connecting water pipe to one end of water tank pipe 303. Opening water tank cover 302 allows treated cleaning hot water to be added to cleaning water tank 301. Activating heating plate 8 heats and maintains the temperature of the cleaning hot water in cleaning water tank 301, quickly keeping it warm and reducing the impact of temperature drop on cleaning results. Drone motor 6 drives drone fan blades 7 to rotate, which in turn drives drone body 5 into… The system moves in a flight path, using a high-pressure water pump 10 to draw hot water from the cleaning tank 301 into the nozzle pipe 114. The hot water is then sprayed out through the cleaning nozzle 115 at one end of the nozzle pipe 114 for cleaning. Wind turbine tower walls are exposed to the elements for a long time, and are frequently affected by wind, sand, oil stains, flying insects, and acid rain, which can cause corrosion. Hot water can quickly clean the wind turbine tower walls, dissolving accumulated mechanical oil and other mixed stains. High-pressure hot water can physically peel off various sticky stains, making the process more efficient, time-saving, labor-saving, and saving manpower.
[0034] The sensor 305 located on the lower side of the cleaning water tank 301 allows personnel to quickly determine whether there is still hot water inside the tank. This reduces the risk of damage caused by the high-pressure water pump 10 running dry after the hot water has been used up, and also reduces the impact on the work speed of the staff. The nozzle motor 112 drives the rotating seat 113 to rotate, which in turn drives the nozzle pipe 114 and the cleaning nozzle 115 to adjust the angle. The rotating seat 113 can be quickly installed and removed from the motor threaded post on the nozzle motor 112. The nozzle assembly 11 can be quickly installed and removed from the cleaning plate 2 by rotating the nozzle bolts. This allows for quick adjustment of the angle of the cleaning nozzle 115, making it convenient to clean different parts of the wind turbine tower wall and reducing the inability to clean some dead corners at the top of the wind turbine tower wall.
[0035] The working principle of the technical solution provided by this utility model is as follows: Due to long-term exposure to wind and sun, the wall of a wind turbine tower is frequently subjected to a series of effects such as wind and sand, oil stains, flying insects, and acid rain, leading to corrosion. Personnel open clamp 304 and insert the connecting water pipe at one end of the nozzle pipe 114 into the water tank pipe 303. Closing clamp 304 secures the connecting water pipe to one end of the water tank pipe 303. The water tank cover 302 is opened, and treated cleaning hot water is added to the cleaning water tank 301. The heating plate 8 is activated to heat and maintain the temperature of the cleaning hot water in the cleaning water tank 301. The drone motor 6 drives the drone fan blades 7 to rotate, causing the drone body to rotate. 5. During flight movement, the high-pressure water pump 10 draws hot water from the cleaning water tank 301 into the nozzle pipe 114, where it is sprayed out through the cleaning nozzle 115 at one end of the nozzle pipe 114. The nozzle motor 112 drives the rotating seat 113 to rotate, which in turn rotates the nozzle pipe 114 and the cleaning nozzle 115 to adjust the angle, cleaning the dead corners at the top of the wind turbine tower wall. The sensor 305 on the lower side of the cleaning water tank 301 allows personnel to quickly know whether there is still hot water in the cleaning water tank 301, reducing the risk of damage caused by the high-pressure water pump 10 running dry after the hot water has been used up, and also reducing the impact on the work speed of the staff.
