Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of wind turbine gearbox installation technology, specifically a wind turbine gearbox main shaft inner ring tensioner auxiliary protective tooling. Background Technology
[0002] The wind turbine gearbox is one of the core components in the wind power generation transmission chain, used for power transmission between the main shaft and the generator.
[0003] A bolt tensioner is short for a hydraulic bolt tensioner or a hydraulic tensioner. It uses a hydraulic booster pump (ultra-high pressure hydraulic pump) to provide a hydraulic source. The tension is determined based on the tensile strength, yield coefficient, and elongation of the material. The tension generated by the ultra-high pressure oil pump causes the bolt to be stretched within its elastic deformation zone, resulting in slight deformation of the bolt diameter, which makes the nut easier to loosen. In addition, it can also be used as a device to apply axial force to hydraulic interference connections for top pressure installation. Bolt tensioners are one of the commonly used devices in the installation of wind turbine gearboxes. In actual operation, the spindle is located inside the gearbox, and the space inside the gearbox is small, making it inconvenient for personnel to operate. The tensioner is large in shape and heavy, which further increases the workload for manual operation. Utility Model Content
