For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0031] In the current wind power industry, the increase in blade size brings challenges to transportation, especially the transportation of super-long blades. During the transportation of the blade, the stability of the clamping and fixing of the blade holder to the blade is crucial.

[0032] However, the blade holder in the related art has the problem that the fixed cavity form cannot closely match the profile of the blade when in use, thereby causing the risk of blade movement during transportation, and affecting the reliability of blade transportation.

[0033] Based on this, one embodiment of the present application provides a blade holder, which can ensure the clamping and fixing of the blade and the reliability of the blade transportation.

[0034] As shown in FIGS. 1-3, one embodiment of the present application provides a blade holder including a base body 10 and a clamping assembly 20, the base body 10 including oppositely arranged first and second seat bodies 11 and 12, the clamping assembly 20 including a first clamping component 21 arranged on the first seat body 11 and a second clamping component 22 arranged on the second seat body 12, the first and second clamping components 21 and 22 being configured to clamp and fix the blade. At least part of the first clamping component 21 has a moving and rotating freedom degree relative to the first seat body 11, and / or at least part of the second clamping component 22 has a moving and rotating freedom degree relative to the second seat body 12.

[0035] The blade generally includes a blade root, a blade tip and a blade body between the blade root and the blade tip along the length direction of the blade, and the blade body supporting device is used to support the blade body of the blade.

[0036] The first and second seat bodies 11 and 12 can be connected to each other or arranged independently of each other, and can be optionally connected to each other.

[0039] In use, the blade holder provided by the embodiment of the present application can place the blade between the first seat body 11 and the second seat body 12. Since at least part of the first clamping component 21 has the freedom of movement and rotation relative to the first seat body 11, and / or at least part of the second clamping component 22 has the freedom of movement and rotation relative to the second seat body 12, when the first clamping component 21 and the second clamping component 22 clamp and fix the blade, at least part of the first clamping component 21 can rotate relative to the first seat body 11, and / or at least part of the second clamping component 22 can rotate relative to the second seat body 12, so that the first clamping component 21 and the second clamping component 22 can adapt to the profile of the blade, increase the area of adhesion to the profile, and increase the pressure on the surface of the blade by moving at least part of the first clamping component 20 relative to the first seat body 11 and / or moving at least part of the second clamping component relative to the second seat body 12, so that the first clamping component 21 and / or the second clamping component 22 closely adhere to the windward surface and the leeward surface of the blade, reduce the risk of movement of the blade during transportation, and ensure the reliability of the transportation of the blade.

Correspondingly, at least part of the second clamping component can move in the first direction X towards or away from the first seat body 11, so that the first clamping component and the second clamping component can exert sufficient clamping force on the blade, and after clamping the blade, the freedom of rotation of the first clamping component 21 and the second clamping component 22 can be locked, effectively ensuring the stability of the blade during transportation.

[0044] In some optional embodiments, the blade holder provided by one of the embodiments of the present application can be provided with a first seat body 11 and a second seat body 12, which can enclose a cavity 13 extending along the second direction Y, and the blade can extend into the cavity 13, at least part of the first clamping component 21 can be located in the cavity 13 and extend along the second direction Y relative to the rotation axis of the first seat body 11, and / or at least part of the second clamping component 22 can be located in the cavity 13 and extend along the second direction Y relative to the rotation axis of the second seat body 12.

[0045] The cavity 13 extending along the first direction X can be closed or partially open. The first clamping component 21 and the second clamping component 22 can be at least partially located in the cavity 13, so that at least part of the first clamping component 21 located in the cavity 13 has the freedom of movement and rotation relative to the first seat body 11, and at least part of the second clamping component 22 located in the cavity 13 has the freedom of movement and rotation relative to the second seat body 12.

[0048] The blade holder provided by one of the embodiments of the present application can be provided with the above arrangement, which is beneficial to guarantee the freedom of rotation of the first clamping component 21 relative to the first seat body 11 and the freedom of rotation of the second clamping component 22 relative to the second seat body 12, increase the contact area with the blade, provide greater frictional resistance, and guarantee the reliability of clamping and fixing the blade.

[0049] In some optional embodiments, one end of the first seat body 11 and the second seat body 12 in the third direction Z can be rotatably connected, and the other end can be detachably connected. By rotating the first seat body 11 and the second seat body 12, the first clamping component 21 and the second clamping component 22 are driven to rotate, so as to clamp and release the blade. Optionally, the end of the first seat body 11 and the second seat body 12 which is detachably connected can be locked or unlocked by the locking component.

[0050] Optionally, the third direction Z intersects with the first direction X and the second direction Y, and can be perpendicular to each other. When the blade is clamped, the third direction Z can be the chord direction of the blade.

[0051] In some optional embodiments, the blade holder provided by one embodiment of the present application, the first clamping component 21 comprises a first clamping unit 21a, and at least one first clamping unit 21a has the freedom of movement and rotation relative to the first base body 11.

[0052] In some optional embodiments, the first clamping component 21 comprises two, three or more spaced-apart first clamping units 21a.

[0053] In the first clamping component 21, at least part of one first clamping unit 21a can have the freedom of movement and rotation relative to the first base body 11. Alternatively, at least part of two or more first clamping units 21a can have the freedom of movement and rotation relative to the first base body 11.

[0054] When clamping the blade, the first clamping units 21a of the first clamping component 21 can be distributed at least partially along the third direction Z.

[0055] The blade holder provided by one embodiment of the present application can realize multi-point support for at least one of the windward surface and the leeward surface of the blade by making the first clamping component 21 comprise two or more spaced-apart first clamping units 21a, thereby improving the stability of clamping and fixation, and facilitating the guarantee of the stability of the blade relative to the base body 10 after the blade is clamped and fixed, and the reliable transportation of the blade.

[0056] In some optional embodiments, the blade holder provided by one embodiment of the present application, the first clamping unit 21a comprises a first driving part 211 and a first clamping body 212, the first clamping body 212 is rotationally connected with the first driving part 211 and is configured to clamp the blade, and the first driving part 211 is arranged on the first base body 11 and is configured to drive the first clamping body 212 to move relative to the first base body 11.

[0058] The blade holder provided by one of the embodiments of the present application adopts the above structure for the first clamping unit 21a, and the first clamping body 212 can be in contact with the blade and clamped and fixed together with the second clamping assembly 20. Since the first driving part 211 drives the first clamping body 212 to move relative to the first seat body 11, it is beneficial to adjust the clamping force of the first clamping body 212 on the blade. In addition, the first clamping body 212 is rotationally connected to the first driving part 211, so that when the blade is clamped and fixed, the first clamping body 212 can be adjusted relative to the first seat body 11 and the first driving part 211 to better fit the profile of the blade and increase the contact area. Then, the first clamping body 212 is driven to move by the first driving part 211 to clamp and fix the blade, which can ensure the clamping and fixing of the blade and the reliability of the blade transportation.

[0059] In some optional embodiments, the first driving part 211 includes a first telescopic cylinder 2111 connected between the first seat body 11 and the first clamping body 212.

[0060] The first telescopic cylinder 2111 can be a pneumatic cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder or an electric cylinder.

[0061] One of the cylinder body and the cylinder rod of the first telescopic cylinder 2111 can be connected to the first seat body 11, and the other can be connected to the first clamping body 212. For example, the cylinder body of the first telescopic cylinder 2111 can be fixedly connected to the first seat body 11, and the cylinder rod can be rotationally connected to the first clamping body 212.

[0063] It can be understood that the cylinder body or the cylinder rod of the first telescopic cylinder 2111 of part of the first clamping unit 21a can be directly rotationally connected to the first clamping body 212 to meet the requirements of movement and rotation of the first clamping body 212 relative to the first seat body 11.

[0066] The blade holder provided by the embodiment of the present application can make up for the insufficient height of the first seat body 11, realize the transmission of the power of the first telescopic cylinder 2111 through the transmission rod 2112, drive the transmission rod 2112 to rotate through the elongation or shortening of the first telescopic cylinder 2111, enable the transmission rod 2112 to rotate relative to the first seat body 11 and drive the first clamping body 212 to move relative to the first seat body 11, and enable the first clamping body 212 to rotate relative to the first seat body 11 through the rotatable connection between the first clamping body 212 and the transmission rod 2112, so that the movement and rotation freedom requirements of the first clamping body 212 can be ensured, and the first clamping assembly 20 can be installed in the base body 10 with sufficient space.

[0067] As shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, in some optional embodiments, the blade holder provided by the embodiment of the present application, the first driving parts 211 included in the first clamping unit 21a are arranged in pairs and symmetrically distributed on the two sides of the first seat body 11, and the first driving parts 211 arranged in pairs are rotatably connected with the first clamping body 212.

[0068] The first driving part 211 can include the first telescopic cylinder 2111, and of course, the first driving part 211 can also include the first telescopic cylinder 2111 and the transmission rod 2112. The connection mode between the first driving part 211 and the first clamping body 212 can adopt the connection form in the above-mentioned embodiments, which will not be repeated here.

[0069] The first driving parts 211 arranged in pairs of the first clamping unit 21a can be rotatably connected with the first clamping body 212 through the same rotating shaft.

[0070] The blade holder provided by the embodiment of the present application can ensure the stability of the driving of the first clamping body 212 and the reliability of the blade transportation by arranging the first driving parts 211 included in the first clamping unit 21a in pairs and symmetrically distributing the first driving parts 211 on the two sides of the first seat body 11, and rotatably connecting the first driving parts 211 arranged in pairs with the first clamping body 212.

[0071] In some optional embodiments, the blade holder provided by one of the embodiments of the present application has the second clamping component 22, which comprises a second driving part 221 and a second clamping body 222, the second clamping body 222 is rotationally connected with the second driving part 221 and is configured to clamp the blade, and the second driving part 221 is arranged on the second seat body 12 and is configured to drive the second clamping body 222 to move relative to the second seat body 12.

[0072] The second driving part 221 comprises but is not limited to a telescopic cylinder, a screw rod or the like structure. The second clamping body 222 and the second driving part 221 can be connected in a manner of shaft hinging, spherical hinging, universal joint connection or the like.

[0073] It can be understood that the above-mentioned embodiments of the present application are all exemplified by taking the first driving part 211 comprising the first telescopic cylinder 2111 as an example, and are not limited thereto. In some embodiments, the first driving part 211 can also comprise a linear motor, a rotary motor and a cooperation structure of a scissor fork, or any structure capable of realizing length change and directly or indirectly driving the first clamping body 212 to move relative to the first seat body 11.

[0074] The blade holder provided by one of the embodiments of the present application has the second clamping assembly 20 in the above-mentioned structure, which can utilize the second clamping body 222 to contact the blade and clamp and fix the blade together with the first clamping assembly 20. Since the second driving part 221 drives the second clamping body 222 to move relative to the second seat body 12, it is beneficial to adjust the clamping force of the second clamping body 222 on the blade. In addition, the second clamping body 222 is rotationally connected with the second driving part 221, so that during clamping of the blade, the angle of the second clamping body 222 relative to the second seat body 12 and the second driving part 221 can be adjusted to better fit the profile of the blade and increase the contact area. Then, the second clamping body 222 is driven to move by the second driving part 221 to clamp and fix the blade, which can ensure the clamping and fixing effect on the blade and ensure the reliability of the blade transportation.

[0075] In some optional embodiments, the blade holder provided by one of the embodiments of the present application has the second driving part 221, which comprises at least one of a second telescopic cylinder and a drive screw.

[0076] The second driving part 221 can comprise a second telescopic cylinder, which can be connected between the second seat body 12 and the second clamping body 222. The second telescopic cylinder can be fixedly connected with the second seat body 12 and rotatably connected with the second clamping body 222. The extension and retraction of the second telescopic cylinder can drive the second clamping body 222 to move relative to the second seat body 12. The rotatable connection between the second telescopic cylinder and the second seat body 12 can drive the second clamping body 222 to rotate relative to the second seat body 12, thereby satisfying the movement and rotation freedom of the second clamping body 222 relative to the second seat body 12, better fitting the profile of the blade, and locking and fixing the blade through the extension of the second telescopic cylinder, thereby ensuring the stability of clamping the blade.

[0077] Of course, in some embodiments, the second driving part 221 can also comprise a driving screw, which is rotatably connected with the second clamping body 222. The driving screw and the second seat body 12 can be gap-fitted with each other. The relative position between the driving screw and the second seat body 12 after adjustment can be fixed by a pair of locking nuts arranged on the driving screw. For example, the driving screw and the second seat body 12 can be clamped and fixed by two locking nuts, thereby shortening the relative position between the driving screw and the second seat body 12.
