Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve the fixing reliability of a blade by fitting and adhering the blade root section through a resin filler to a fixing metal formed on a hab while penetrating a stopper metal between the fixing metal and the blade root section. CONSTITUTION:A fiber reinforced resin blade 5 has a tubular root section 5a and secured through a fixing metal to a hab 4. The fiber reinforced root section 5a of the blade 5 is adhered through a fiber reinforced resin filler 12 and an adhesive to the fixing metal 7 while plural bolts 13 are penetrated through a collar 14 to the inner diameter side of the blade root section 5a along the circumferential direction of the sleeve section 8 of the fixing metal 7 and tightened by means of a nut 13a. Consequently, the reliability can be improved when fixing a fiber reinforced resin blade to a fixing metal through simple structure.

In wind turbines used as drive sources for wind power generators, etc., it is desirable to make the rotor blades as light as possible so that the wind energy of natural wind can be extracted efficiently.For this reason, the blades are made with hollow structures made of fiber reinforced resin. It has become common practice to attach this to a metal hub via a mounting bracket.

However, fiber-reinforced resin is difficult to achieve processing accuracy compared to metal due to shrinkage phenomenon during molding, etc. Therefore, while compensating for this poor processing accuracy, the fiber-reinforced resin blade is attached to the metal mounting bracket due to centrifugal force. It was extremely difficult to secure the bolts so that they would not come out.

In order to improve the installation reliability of such a blade, some blades have reinforcing fibers arranged in the longitudinal direction of the blade at the root of the blade that are wrapped around a bolt passed through a mounting fitting and then folded back. However, wrapping the reinforcing fibers around the bolt one by one to form the bolt is extremely complicated, and its inefficiency causes an increase in costs.

A reinforcing fabric made of unidirectional reinforcing fiber tape and reinforcing fibers diagonally arranged in the longitudinal direction is embedded, and the blade root is fitted and bonded to the mounting bracket via a resin filler, and the mounting bracket and the blade root are bonded together. It is characterized by having a locking fitting passed through between the two.

FIG. 4 shows a propeller type wind turbine equipped with a rotor having the blade mounting structure of the present invention. Reference numeral 1 denotes a column extending vertically, and a nacelle 2 is supported at the upper end of the column so as to be rotatable around the axis of the column 1, and a rotor 3 is further supported on this nacelle 2 so as to be rotatable about a horizontal axis. .

As shown in Figures 1 and 2, a blade 5 made of fiber reinforced resin
The base portion 5a is formed into a cylindrical shape and is fixed to a metal fitting 7, and is fixed to the hub 4 via the fitting 7. The mounting bracket 7 is constructed by a cylindrical sleeve portion 8 being fitted into a flange portion 9. On the other hand, in the blade 5, unidirectional reinforcing fiber tapes 10 are embedded so as to be arranged in the longitudinal direction, and reinforcing fabrics 11 made of reinforcing fibers are arranged obliquely in the longitudinal direction. It is made to have rigidity against loads. The unidirectional reinforcing fiber tape 10 and the reinforcing fabric 11 buried in this way extend to the end of the root portion 5a of the blade 5.

The root portion 5a of the blade 5 reinforced with reinforcing fibers in this way
When inserted into the inner diameter side of the sleeve portion 8 of the mounting bracket 7, the fiber-reinforced resin insert 12 is interposed and the insert is fitted and bonded with an epoxy adhesive or the like.

In addition, in this fitted and bonded state, a plurality of bolts 13 penetrate along the circumferential direction of the sleeve portion 8 to the inner diameter side of the blade root portion 5a via the collar 14, and are tightened with nuts 13a. ing.

In the blade mounting structure described above, the unidirectional reinforcing fiber tape 10 is not wound around the bolt 13 at the part where the blade root 5a is fitted into the sleeve part 8 of the mounting fitting, but is straightened as it is to the end. I'm trying to reach it. Therefore, when molding the blade 5, the troublesome work of folding back the unidirectional reinforcing fiber tape 10 at the bolt hole portion is unnecessary, and the molding workability can be significantly improved.

On the other hand, if the unidirectional reinforcing fiber tape 10 is structured so as not to be folded back, the reinforcing fiber tape 10 will be partially cut at the bolt hole of the bolt 13, thereby preventing the blade 5 from being pulled out. This will reduce the resistance force in the shear direction. However, in the mounting structure of the present invention, the reinforcing fabric 11 made of reinforcing fibers arranged crosswise in the longitudinal direction is embedded, and the resin filler 12 is interposed and bonded. Pull-out in the shearing direction can be prevented.

In the above-described embodiment, the blade root portion is fitted to the inner diameter side of the mounting fitting, but it may be fitted to the outer diameter side of the mounting fitting. However, since the dimensional accuracy of fiber-reinforced resin is easier to achieve on the outer diameter side, it is more convenient to use the former.
