Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of wind power generation technology, specifically to a wind power generation blade that is easy to adjust. Background Technology

[0002] Pitch control enables wind turbines to generate electricity at low wind speeds and capture a fixed amount of wind energy when the wind speed exceeds the rated speed. There are multiple methods for controlling the blade pitch angle; all methods require a mechanism to control the blade angle. The control algorithm continuously monitors wind speed and generator output, adjusting the blade pitch angle accordingly. When the wind speed exceeds the rated speed, the blade pitch angle increases significantly to change the angle of attack and induce stall.

[0003] Existing patent CN217841891U describes a single-blade dual-pitch drive pitch system, comprising: a first pitch drive gearbox and a first pitch motor connected to the first pitch drive gearbox, each pitch bearing having a corresponding first pitch drive gearbox; wherein the drive gear of the first pitch drive gearbox meshes with the pitch bearing; a second pitch drive gearbox and a second pitch motor connected to the second pitch drive gearbox; wherein the drive gear of the second pitch drive gearbox meshes with the pitch bearing. This application solves the problems of existing technologies where the size and weight of a single pitch drive gearbox are too large, making it difficult to transport it from the hub when replacement is needed; and the design and production difficulties and high costs associated with the high power of a single pitch motor and inverter. Existing blade pitch drive units consist of gears and gear rings. After wear occurs, gaps exist between the gears and gear rings, making it impossible to control the blade pitch within these gaps and difficult to compensate for. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides an easily adjustable wind turbine blade, solving the problems mentioned in the background technology of slow adjustment response speed of gear-ring controlled blades and the inability to easily compensate for wear.

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. 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.

[0022] See Figures 1-5An easily adjustable wind turbine blade includes a blade 1 and a body 12 for supporting the blade 1. The body 12 has a locking part 2 that rotates with it. The locking part 2 and the blade 1 are connected by a flange 3. This part is part of the prior art. The prior art also includes an inspection unit for detecting the tilt angle of the blade 1, as well as other units for wind power generation. The locking part 2 has a crossbeam 4 on the side away from the blade 1. The crossbeam 4 is divided into a high part 401 and a low part 402. The edge of the high part 401 has a misalignment notch 403. Concentric annular telescopic parts 5 are fixedly installed inside the body 12. Since the blade 1 needs to rotate 90 degrees, the annular telescopic parts 5 should have a rotation angle greater than 180 degrees. Therefore, two annular telescopic parts 5 are misaligned, and a misalignment notch 403 is provided. Due to the misalignment, the two annular telescopic parts 5 extend or retract synchronously. Each of the two annular telescopic parts 5 is provided with a control part 501 for adjusting the extension and retraction of the free end of the annular telescopic part 5. The free ends of the two annular telescopic parts 5 respectively abut against the crossbeam 4. The ends of the two annular telescopic parts 5 respectively located away from the locking part 2 are on the same plane. The two annular telescopic parts 5 are flush with the center planes of the high part 401 and the low part 402 respectively. The outer annular telescopic part 5 is fitted inside the misalignment notch 403. The annular telescopic parts 5 perform a one-sided compression and one-sided contraction operation on the crossbeam 4, thereby enabling the locking part 2 to drive the blade 1 to rotate. When wear occurs, the error can be compensated by adjusting the extension and retraction of the annular telescopic parts 5, thereby enabling convenient wear compensation while driving the blade 1 to rotate.

[0023] The inner ring of the main body 12 has a snap-fit ​​groove 6, the inner ring of the snap-fit ​​part 2 has a connecting plate 7, the outer ring of the connecting plate 7 has a protrusion 701 that matches the snap-fit ​​groove 6, the middle of the connecting plate 7 has a through hole 8, the free end of the annular telescopic part 5 is fixedly installed with a threaded shaft 502 whose end face is flush with the inner bottom wall of the snap-fit ​​groove 6, the outer surface of the threaded shaft 502 located away from the snap-fit ​​part 2 is threaded with a nut 503, the snap-fit ​​part 2 is provided with a central shaft 504 that passes through the connecting plate 7 and is sleeved with the main body 12. By setting the connecting plate 7 and the main body 12 to be snapped separately, the snap-fit ​​part 2 and the annular telescopic part 5 can be installed easily. First, the threaded shaft 502 is sleeved in the through hole 8, then the nut 503 is installed, and finally the connecting plate 7 is snapped into the inside of the main body 12. Of course, the lubrication part and the bearing part are required for support.

[0024] The protrusion 701 is divided into a clockwise inclined part and a counterclockwise inclined part. The two parts are distributed in a ring along the central axis 504 of the connecting plate 7. This arrangement can change the snap-fit ​​shape and prevent the connecting plate 7 from rotating clockwise or counterclockwise relative to the main body 12.

[0025] The inner ring of the main body 12 has a threaded groove 13, and the inner ring of the threaded groove 13 is threadedly connected to a threaded ring 9. The threaded ring 9 covers the snap-fit ​​part 2 inside the main body 12. The blade 1 is sleeved on the inner ring of the threaded ring 9. After the snap-fit ​​part 2 is installed, the threaded ring 9 limits the snap-fit ​​part 2 and restricts the snap-fit ​​part 2 inside the main body 12. Of course, it is also possible to set a flange ring on the main body 12 to limit the snap-fit ​​part 2, but setting a protruding part for snap-fit ​​will affect the overall streamlined shape of the main body 12.

[0026] The snap-fit ​​part 2 is provided with a semi-through threaded hole 10 aligned with the connection hole of the flange 3. The semi-through threaded hole 10 is internally threaded with a countersunk bolt 11. The back of the snap-fit ​​part 2 has a moving part that requires lubrication. By providing the semi-through threaded hole 10, the internal and external communication of the snap-fit ​​part 2 can be restricted, preventing impurities from entering the back of the snap-fit ​​part 2.

[0027] The annular telescopic part 5 is driven by pneumatic or hydraulic pressure. It can also be used as an actuator by employing the principle of a jack. The control part 501 is a pipe for controlling the inflow and outflow of fluid. Similarly, other devices that can achieve annular telescopic control can replace the pneumatic or hydraulic drive. It is necessary to ensure that the device maintains a certain rigidity after the action is completed.

[0028] 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.

[0029] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
