Description

A wind power operation and maintenance high-altitude training platform Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of wind power high-altitude training equipment, specifically to a wind power operation and maintenance high-altitude training platform. Background Technology

[0002] In the field operation and maintenance work of the wind power industry, working at height is a core part of the daily work of operation and maintenance personnel. Professional training in working at height and obtaining the corresponding qualifications are essential prerequisites for all personnel entering the wind turbine to carry out operation and maintenance work, which are directly related to the safety and efficiency of operation and maintenance work.

[0003] However, the wind power industry currently suffers from significant shortcomings in safety training: The industry lacks a professional certification system for working at heights and ensuring safety in wind power scenarios, resulting in a lack of unified and standardized professional standards for the qualification certification of operation and maintenance personnel. Furthermore, existing wind power safety training courses generally suffer from a disconnect between theory and practice, with most courses remaining at the level of theoretical instruction and failing to effectively translate into practical skills. More critically, there is a severe shortage of wind power training equipment, especially in the core area of ​​wind power operation and maintenance—the training of working at heights—lacking professional and comprehensive training facilities capable of simulating real-world scenarios and covering the entire operational process, significantly diminishing the effectiveness of the training.

[0004] Specifically, the existing training models for climbing ladders and heights have several shortcomings and are difficult to meet the actual needs of wind power operation and maintenance:

[0005] Limited functionality: The training content is limited to simple ladder climbing exercises and static displays of equipment products, which cannot simulate complex operation scenarios in the operation and maintenance process and make it difficult to train personnel's ability to deal with practical problems;

[0006] The practical training is too simplistic: the training content involving crane operation is too one-dimensional and fails to replicate the collaborative scenarios of various auxiliary facilities on site, making it impossible to effectively carry out key training content such as safety protection measures and collaborative operation procedures related to hoisting operations.

[0007] Poor equipment compatibility: The equipment used in training is mostly from a single brand and cannot cover wind turbines and their associated safety protection products from different manufacturers at wind power sites. This makes it difficult for trainees to quickly adapt to the diverse on-site equipment, increasing the safety risks in actual operations.

[0008] In summary, the current lack of a comprehensive and safe training system for high-altitude operations in the wind power industry has become a key bottleneck restricting the improvement of the professional capabilities of operation and maintenance personnel and ensuring on-site operational safety. There is an urgent need to build a professional training solution that is adapted to wind power scenarios, has comprehensive functions, and is safe and efficient. Summary of the Invention

[0009] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a wind power operation and maintenance high-altitude training platform, which can solve the technical problems of existing wind turbine high-altitude operation training equipment having single function, narrow practical coverage, and single training content.

[0010] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0011] A wind power operation and maintenance high-altitude training platform includes a main support frame, a simulated tower, a tower top platform, ladders, external ladders, internal ladders, a hoisting opening, and monitors. The tower top platform is located inside and above the main support frame. Multiple external ladders are located on the sides of the main support frame, with their tops passing through the tower top platform. The simulated tower is located on one side of the bottom of the tower top platform. The internal ladder is located inside the simulated tower, with its top passing through the tower top platform. The ladders are located on one side of the main support frame. The hoisting opening is located on the tower top platform. Monitors are located at the top of the main support frame, inside the simulated tower, and at the bottom of the tower top platform.

[0012] Preferably, three external ladders are provided, namely an internal sliding block ladder, an external sliding block ladder, and a wire rope anti-fall ladder.

[0013] Preferably, a protective fence is provided between the side of the tower top platform and the top of the main support, and the protective fence has a gap that is connected to the top of the escalator.

[0014] Preferably, multiple lifting rings and lighting lamps are provided on the main support frame.

[0015] Preferably, two lifting ports are provided, one located above the simulated tower and the other located outside the simulated tower.

[0016] Preferably, a door is provided on the side wall of the simulated tower.

[0017] Preferably, a smoke generator is provided inside both the main support and the simulated tower.

[0018] Preferably, emergency indicator lights are provided inside both the main support frame and the simulated tower.

[0019] In this invention, the platform incorporates three common wind turbine ladder types—internal sliding ladder, external sliding ladder, and wire rope fall-prevention ladder—on the side of the main support frame. It is also equipped with compatible climbing aids, climb-free devices, and corresponding fall protection devices (rail-type fall arrestors and wire rope fall arrestors), breaking the limitations of traditional single-ladder training. Trainees can complete operational training on different types of ladders on the same platform, quickly adapting to the diverse ladder equipment at wind power sites. This effectively covers the working conditions of different manufacturers and turbine models at heights, solving the problem of "single brand and poor adaptability" in existing training programs, and significantly improving trainees' adaptability to on-site equipment.

[0020] The platform features two functionally differentiated lifting ports, equipped with either chain cranes or wire rope cranes, enabling simultaneous training in lifting operations inside and outside the wind turbine tower. It also supports follow-up lifting training, fully replicating the collaborative "tower climbing + hoisting" operation scenario at a wind power site. Compared to traditional crane training methods that lack on-site facilities and safety measures, this platform allows trainees to master safe operating procedures and key points of coordination in hoisting operations within a simulated real-world environment, thereby enhancing their practical skills.

[0021] The platform, equipped with smoke generators, emergency indicator lights, descent devices, and fire extinguishers within its main support structure and simulated tower, can simulate high-altitude escape and emergency rescue training in the event of a fire. Trainees can practice key operations in a controlled simulated environment, such as using descent devices to escape from the hoistway, evacuating along the direction of emergency indicator lights, and using fire extinguishers to handle initial fires, making emergency training safer and more standardized.

[0022] The platform is equipped with monitors at the top of the main support, inside the simulated tower, and at the bottom of the tower platform, enabling real-time monitoring of the training area. The monitoring data is transmitted to the monitoring room via network cable, which allows training managers to keep abreast of the training progress and promptly stop any non-standard operations. It also allows trainees to intuitively understand their own operational shortcomings through video playback and make targeted improvements. This solves the problems of "difficult process monitoring and difficult problem tracing" in traditional training and improves the accuracy of training effect evaluation.

[0023] With clear functional zoning and high training efficiency: The platform is divided into functional zones such as external ladder climbing training, internal ladder climbing training, hoisting training, and emergency escape training through the main support and simulated tower structure. Each zone is spaced apart and does not interfere with each other, allowing multiple different types of training projects to be carried out at the same time, which greatly improves the utilization efficiency of the training site.

[0027] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0028] As shown in Figures 1 and 2, a wind power operation and maintenance high-altitude training platform includes a main support frame 1, a simulated tower 2, a tower top platform 3, a ladder 4, an external ladder 5, an internal ladder 6, a hoisting opening 7, and a monitor 8. The main support frame 1 is a rectangular frame formed by several profiles fixedly connected together. This rectangular frame has a top-level mounting section and a middle-level connecting section.

[0029] The tower top platform 3 is located inside and above the main support 1. Specifically, the tower top platform 3 is fixedly installed on the middle layer connection part. The tower top platform 3 serves as an observation platform for observers and also as the starting point or end point for training of trainees.

[0030] Multiple external ladders 5 are installed on the side of the main support 1. The top of each external ladder 5 passes through the tower top platform 3 and is fixedly connected to the top mounting part. In this embodiment, three external ladders 5 are provided, namely an internal sliding ladder, an external sliding ladder, and a wire rope fall-prevention ladder. The internal sliding ladder, external sliding ladder, and wire rope fall-prevention ladder are commonly used ladder types in existing wind turbines, which can realize simultaneous training with multiple types of ladders and cover a variety of working conditions.

[0031] The external climbing ladder 5 is equipped with a suitable climbing aid or climbing assisted device. The external climbing ladder 5 is equipped with a fall protection device to provide safety protection for trainees. The internal sliding ladder and the external sliding ladder use a track-type fall protection device, while the wire rope fall protection ladder uses a wire rope fall protection device.

[0032] A protective railing 9 is fixedly installed between the top circumference of the tower top platform 3 and the top of the main support 1. The protective railing 9 is used to protect the safety of trainees. An escalator 4 is located on one side of the main support 1. There is a gap on one side of the protective railing 9, which connects to the top of the escalator 4. Relevant personnel can walk between the tower top platform 3 and the ground via the escalator 4, which can be used as a passage for non-trainees to go up and down, and can also serve as an emergency passage.

[0033] Multiple hanging rings 10 and lighting fixtures 11 are installed on the main support frame 1. The hanging rings 10 serve as attachment points for escape equipment and safety ropes. The lighting fixtures 11 provide a light source for nighttime training, ensuring its smooth operation. Multiple fire extinguishers are also installed on the main support frame 1 to respond to sudden fires.

[0034] The simulated tower 2 is located on one side of the bottom of the tower top platform 3, spaced apart from the external ladder 5. The training of the two does not interfere with each other. The top of the simulated tower 2 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the tower top platform 3. A door 12 is installed on the side wall of the simulated tower 2, which can be opened and closed, allowing trainees to enter and exit the simulated tower 2.

[0035] The inner ladder 6 is installed inside the simulated tower 2. The top of the inner ladder 6 passes through the tower top platform 3, and the top of the inner ladder 6 is fixedly connected to the top layer connection part. Two inner ladders 6 are installed in total.

[0036] Lifting openings 7 are located on the top platform 3 of the tower. Specifically, two lifting openings 7 are provided: one above the simulated tower section 2 for training the operation of lifting items inside the tower section, and the other outside the simulated tower section 2 for training the operation of lifting items outside the tower section. A chain crane or wire rope crane is installed on the top mounting section, directly above the lifting openings 7, for lifting items (see attached diagram). A descent device 15 is installed on the main support 1, above the lifting openings 7. During fire drills, trainees use the descent device 15 to escape downwards through the lifting openings 7. The two lifting openings 7 also allow for follow-up lifting training.

[0037] Smoke generators 13 are installed inside both the main support 1 and the simulated tower 2. When a fire drill is required, the operator controls multiple smoke generators 13 to generate smoke to simulate a fire. Emergency indicator lights 14 are also installed inside both the main support 1 and the simulated tower 2. The emergency indicator lights 14 indicate the direction for emergency escape, and trainees escape along the direction indicated by the emergency indicator lights 14.

[0038] Monitors 8 are installed at the top of the main support 1, inside the simulated tower 2, and at the bottom of the tower top platform 3. Multiple monitors 8 monitor the training area in real time and transmit the data to the monitoring room via network cable. This allows trainees to watch the training in real time and review the footage to understand their shortcomings.

[0039] The above embodiments are merely illustrative of the concept and implementation of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Under the concept of this utility model, the technical solutions without substantial changes are still within the scope of protection.
