Description
本出願は、2018年6月12日に出願した仮出願第62/684,031号に対して、米国特許法第119条に基づく優先権の利益を主張するものであり、その全内容は参照により本明細書に組み込まれる。
治具本体部分は、風力タービンブレードの種々の構成要素に関連する重量を支持するのに十分な構造的完全性を有して、様々な材料及びサイズで構築され得る。例えば、治具本体(1001)は、図1~3に示されるような全体的に矩形の構造を形成するように一緒に溶接され得る、金属製の、例えば鋼鉄製の、複数のトラスで形成され得る。治具(1000)は、示されるように、フラットバック挿入物(200)の長さに対応する長さを有するサイズとなされ得る。幾つかの実施形態では、治具は、フラットバック挿入物(200)の境界を越えて延在し、且つ、ブレードの根元から先端にまで及び得る。
治具はまた、本体から型(1)の前縁まで延在するアーム(1012)を含む。アーム(1012)は、型の前縁に結合するための取付けブラケットを含み得る。このアーム(1012)は、フラットバック挿入物(200)の取扱い及び据付けの間、安定化力として機能する。さらに、アーム(1012)は、外板型に対して治具を位置決めし、且つ、治具に取り付けられる他の位置決め器具を参照するための基準として機能し得る。
治具はまた、本体(1001)から型(1)の後縁まで延在するレッグ(1002)を含む。レッグ(1002)は、型の後縁に結合するための取付けブラケットを含み得る。
図1~2及び22に最も良く示されるように、治具は、治具(1000)が持ち上げられて型(1)上の所望の位置に降ろされることを可能にする、複数の接続部材、例えばシャックル(1003)を含む。治具は、例えばケーブル及び滑車システムを介して持ち上げられ、型(1)の上方の所望の位置まで搬送されて、フラットバック200の据付けのための型フランジに係合するように下降される。示された例示的な実施形態では、第1の接続部材(1003)の対が、本体の第1の端部に配置され(例えば、フレーム1001bの頂面に結合され)、第2の接続部材(1003)の対が、本体の反対側の端部に配置される。宙に吊されたときの治具に追加の荷重分配チャネルを提供することが望まれるのであれば、本体に沿って追加の接続部材(1003)が用いられてもよい。
図22に示されるように、治具(1000)の吊上げ及び搬送中の支持を容易にするために、チェーン又はケーブルが含まれ得る。幾つかの実施形態では、チェーンは、相互接続されたリンクのダブルリムシリーズ(double limb series of interconnected links)である。他の実施形態では、ケーブル又はロープが提供される。吊上げ機構(チェーン、ロープ、ケーブル、等)は、治具(1000)が水平に即ち現場の床に平行に配向されたままであるように、接続部材(シャックル1003)に係合し且つ調和して上昇/下降されるように両端部に設けられ得る。
図1に示されるように、治具は、治具(1000)のスパンに沿って離間された複数のアクチュエータガイド(1050)を含む。示された例示的な実施形態では、六つのアクチュエータガイド(1050)が、治具長さに沿って等距離間隔で分散されている(例えば、本体のフレーム(1001b)ごとに一つのアクチュエータガイド(1050)が配置される)が、アクチュエータガイド(1050)の数及び分布(例えば、一様、勾配、等)は、他の幾何形状のブレード及び/又はフラットバック挿入物に適応するように、所望に応じて変更され得る。
再び図1を参照すると、治具は、後縁への位置決め及び接着のためにフラットバックに足場を設ける、フラットバックホルダ(1006)を含む。
フラットバック保管ラック(1007)もまた、主な治具内に含まれ、このフラットバック保管ラック(1007)は、一つ以上のフラットバックを組立て時に局所的に保管することができ、したがって、在庫からフラットバックを手作業で操作及び積込みする必要性を低減することにより、サイクル時間を短縮し且つ負傷の危険性を低下させる。
1.治具が受け上に配置された状態で、治具の高さ及び角度を調整する。ここで、調整は、受けによってもたらされ、また、3Dモデルとの一致を保証するために、レーザ追跡システムが用いられ得る。
2.アクチュエータを最大長さまで伸張させ、外板までの距離を調べる。フラットバック治具が外板表面に押し付けられたときにペーストが押し出されるのを確実とするのに十分な圧力がなおも存在するように、アクチュエータの距離を調整する。幾つかの実施形態では、フラットバック上にスペーサを置くことにより、5mmの接着間隙が維持され得る。
3.ステップ2の設定に従ってホルダを調整する。
4.接着表面間に粘土を使用して間隙を調べることにより、作業を進める。
5.アクチュエータ及びホルダのスライダ及びプレートを通じて、相応に調整する。
