Description

201038820 六、發明說明: 【發明所屬之技術領域】 本發明係關於風力發電裝置的傾角驅動裝置以及風力 發電裝置。 【先前技術】 習知的用於風力發電裝置的風車係有:風車翼(亦即 ’風車葉片)的傾角角度固定的風車;以及傾角角度可改 變的風車。 習知的用來改變風車翼的傾角角度的機構,係有如專 利文獻1所揭示的將油壓缸中的油壓桿的直線移動轉換成 風車翼之朝軸線的外圍旋轉之機構。此外,也有人提出如 專利文獻2所揭示的這種使用電動操作機令活塞桿朝軸線 方向進行直線移動’利用該移動來使風車翼朝軸線的外圍 旋轉的技術方案。 此外,也有人提出的技術方案係如專利文獻3所揭示 的這種’係在翼迴旋輪的周圍設置齒輪,利用電動馬達來 使得與這個齒輪嚙合的小齒輪旋轉,以使翼迴旋輪旋轉, 進而轉換成風車翼之朝軸線的外圍的旋轉之機構。針對這 種結構,亦有人提出以使用皮帶來取代使用齒輪的方案。 [專利文獻1]日本特開2003-148321號公報 [專利文獻2]日本特開昭63- 124874號公報 [專利文獻3]日本特開2003-56448號公報 201038820 然而,專利文獻1所揭示的這種使用油壓缸的機構者 ,油壓缸的控制油係從通常被配置在機艙內的油壓泵浦經 由主軸、增速機內而供給到轉子頭側。又,專利文獻2所 揭示者,用來傳遞被配置在機艙內的電動操作機的動作之 活塞桿,係被設成必須通過主軸、增速機內。因此,必須 在主軸、增速機內設置油壓配管或活塞桿,這些構件的構 造變得很複雜。 又,風力發電裝置在現地進行組裝的時候,係將原本 分別個體組裝好的機艙與轉子頭予以合體組裝在一起。此 時,係將機艙側的油壓配管與轉子頭側的油壓配管予以連 接。在這種連接作業中,如果有異物混入到油壓配管內的 話,例如會因爲油壓系統的密封性受損等等的因素,而有 導致傾角驅動機構的長期可靠性受減損的可能性。 此外,在進行連接作業中,也會有因漏油而對於周圍 的環境造成影響的虞慮。因此,油壓配管的連接作業必須 非常小心地進行施作。 專利文獻3所揭示的這種齒輪式的傾角驅動機構,設 在迴旋輪上的齒輪與小齒輪係全時地嚙合在一起。在構造 上並無法使潤滑油循環,所以必須塗覆潤滑脂來進行潤滑 〇 一般而言,轉子頭的每一次旋轉中的傾角角度的調整 量很微小,例如:最大也是只有±0.5度以內(普通是在 ±0.1〜0.2度以內),因此齒輪與小齒輪之間的嚙合也僅 止於一個輪齒和一個輪齒之間的嚙合而已。是以,因爲這 -6- 201038820 種微小動作所導致的接觸係集中於局部地方,所以會有因 齒面上的油膜破裂而產生磨耗損傷的虞慮。 一旦安裝在迴旋輪的外圍的齒輪損壞的話,欲更換齒 輪時,必須將風車翼以及轉子頭拆下來。基於這種原因, 在原本設計階段時’嘗試將齒輪的強度設計成較之小齒輪 的強度更強,以資使得損壞都發生在小齒輪這一側,但是 ,關於磨耗損傷的發生時期以及場所等,在設計階段時並 0 不可能預測。 因此,傾角驅動機構的長期可靠性有受減損的可能。 又,在皮帶式結構的情況下,爲了讓皮帶發揮其張力 ,必須將皮帶配置在風車翼的外側,所以會有讓整個系統 趨於大型化的虞慮。此外,皮帶的壽命很短,因此必須頻 繁地進行更換。 因而,如果未充分地進行維修作業的話,傾角驅動機 構的長期可靠性也會有受減損的可能。201038820 VI. Description of the Invention: [Technical Field of the Invention] The present invention relates to a tilt driving device for a wind power generator and a wind power generating device. [Prior Art] A conventional windmill for a wind power generator includes a windmill in which a wind turbine blade (i.e., a 'windmill blade) has a fixed angle of inclination; and a windmill whose angle of inclination can be changed. A conventional mechanism for changing the inclination angle of a wind turbine blade is a mechanism for converting a linear movement of a hydraulic rod in a hydraulic cylinder into a peripheral rotation of a wind turbine blade as disclosed in Patent Document 1. Further, there has been proposed a technique of using the electric operating machine to linearly move the piston rod in the axial direction as disclosed in Patent Document 2, and using this movement to rotate the wind turbine blade toward the periphery of the axis. In addition, a technical solution proposed by the patent document 3 is that the gear is disposed around the wing revolving wheel, and the electric motor is used to rotate the pinion gear meshing with the gear to rotate the wing revolving wheel. Further, it is converted into a mechanism for rotating the periphery of the wind turbine blade toward the axis. In response to this structure, it has also been proposed to use a leather belt instead of a gear. [Patent Document 1] Japanese Laid-Open Patent Publication No. 2003-14848 (Patent Document 3) Japanese Laid-Open Patent Publication No. 2003-56448 No. 201038820 However, the disclosure of Patent Document 1 In a mechanism using a hydraulic cylinder, the hydraulic oil of the hydraulic cylinder is supplied from the hydraulic pump normally disposed in the nacelle to the rotor head side via the main shaft and the speed increaser. Further, as disclosed in Patent Document 2, the piston rod for transmitting the operation of the electric operating machine disposed in the nacelle is required to pass through the main shaft and the speed increaser. Therefore, hydraulic piping or piston rods must be provided in the main shaft and the speed increaser, and the construction of these members becomes complicated. Moreover, when the wind power generation device is assembled in the field, the nacelle and the rotor head which were originally assembled separately are assembled and assembled. At this time, the hydraulic piping on the nacelle side is connected to the hydraulic piping on the rotor head side. In this connection work, if foreign matter is mixed into the hydraulic piping, for example, the sealing property of the hydraulic system may be impaired, and the long-term reliability of the inclination driving mechanism may be impaired. In addition, there are also concerns about the surrounding environment caused by oil leakage during connection work. Therefore, the connection of the hydraulic piping must be carried out with great care. According to the gear type tilt drive mechanism disclosed in Patent Document 3, the gear provided on the whirling wheel meshes with the pinion gear all the time. In terms of construction, the lubricating oil cannot be circulated, so it is necessary to apply grease for lubrication. Generally, the adjustment of the inclination angle in each rotation of the rotor head is small, for example, the maximum is only within ±0.5 degrees ( Normally within ±0.1 to 0.2 degrees), the meshing between the gear and the pinion also ends only between the engagement of one tooth and one tooth. Therefore, since the contact caused by the small movements of the -6-201038820 is concentrated in a local place, there is a concern that the oil film on the tooth surface is broken and wear is damaged. Once the gear mounted on the periphery of the whirling wheel is damaged, the windmill wing and the rotor head must be removed when the gear is to be replaced. For this reason, at the original design stage, 'try to design the strength of the gear to be stronger than the pinion, so that the damage occurs on the side of the pinion, but the period and location of the wear damage Etc. At the design stage, 0 is impossible to predict. Therefore, the long-term reliability of the tilt drive mechanism may be impaired. Further, in the case of the belt type structure, in order to allow the belt to exert its tension, it is necessary to arrange the belt outside the wind turbine blade, so that the entire system tends to be enlarged. In addition, the life of the belt is very short and must be replaced frequently. Therefore, if the maintenance work is not sufficiently performed, the long-term reliability of the tilt drive mechanism may be impaired.

Once the tie rod is moved, the connecting rod mounted on the tie rod will move in a plane that intersects the length of the wing, so that the connecting rod will also move in a plane that intersects the axis of the windmill wing. When the connecting rod moves, the driving position of the wind turbine blade to which the connecting rod is attached also moves, so that the wind turbine blade is rotated toward the outer periphery in the blade length direction. Therefore, the inclination angle of the wind turbine blade can be adjusted. According to this aspect, since the electric drive member is driven by electric power, the power wiring is simpler in comparison with the hydraulic piping, and there is no risk of foreign matter being mixed in and oil leakage. In addition, there is no contact portion due to minute movements, so it is not necessary to consider the problem of wear and tear. In addition, there is no such a short-lived part of the belt, so frequent and troublesome maintenance work can be omitted. -8 - 201038820 By combining these factors, the long-term reliability of the tilt drive can be prevented from being impaired. In the above aspect, 'there may also be: a support member mounted on the rotor head' for supporting the free end of the output shaft to be rotatable 0 because it is provided in this manner: mounted on the rotor head The free end of the output shaft can be supported as a rotatable support member. Therefore, one end of the output shaft 0 is supported by the electric motor and the other end is supported by the support member. That is, the output shaft is a two-end support structure in which both ends are supported, so that stable rotation can be performed.

According to the present invention, since the electric motor is driven by electric power, the electric wiring has a simpler structure as compared with the hydraulic piping, and there is no risk of foreign matter being mixed in and oil leakage. In addition, there is no contact portion due to minute movements, so there is no need to consider the problem of wear damage. Furthermore, there is no such a short-lived part of the belt, -9-201038820, so frequent and complicated maintenance work can be omitted. Combining these factors prevents the long-term reliability of the tilt drive from being impaired.

In the wind power generator 1, there are provided: a strut 2 that is erected on the foundation B; a nacelle 3 that is disposed at an upper end of the strut 2; and is disposed on the casing 3 to be rotatable toward a periphery of a substantially horizontal axis a rotor head 4; a head cover 5 for covering the rotor head 4; a plurality of wind turbine blades 6 radially mounted on the periphery of the rotation axis of the rotor head 4; generating electricity due to the rotation of the rotor head 4. Power generation equipment 7. The pillar 2 is a structure having a columnar structure extending upward from the base B (upward in Fig. 1) as shown in Fig. 1, for example, a structure in which a plurality of cells are connected in the up-down direction. A nacelle 3 is provided at the uppermost portion of the strut 2. If the strut 2 is composed of a plurality of units, the nacelle 3 is placed on the uppermost unit. The nacelle 3 is rotatably supported by the main shaft 8 as shown in Fig. 1, and a power generating device 7 capable of generating electric power by the rotation of the rotor head 4 (i.e., the main shaft 8) is housed therein. The power generation device 7 is exemplified by a speed increaser that can increase the number of revolutions of the main shaft 8 - 201038820; a generator that transmits the rotational driving force from the rotor head 4 to generate electricity; A transformer that generates a voltage that is converted into a predetermined voltage, and the like. On the rotor head 4, a plurality of, for example, three wind turbine blades 6 are radially mounted on the periphery of the rotation axis thereof, and the periphery thereof is covered with a head capsule 5. In this way, when the wind from the direction of the rotation axis of the rotor head 4 is blown to the wind turbine blade 6, the wind turbine blade 6 can generate a force for rotating the rotor head 4 toward the periphery of the rotation axis, so that the rotor head 4 is rotated. drive. Further, in the present embodiment, the description is given to an example in which three wind turbine blades 6 are provided. However, the number of the wind turbine blades 6 is not limited to three, and may be applied to less than three. Or more than three, it is not necessary to specifically limit it. Fig. 2 is a view when viewed from the direction of the arrow X in the first diagram of the one tilt driving device 11. Fig. 3 is a cross-sectional view taken along line Y-Y of Fig. 2Q. Fig. 4 is a schematic view showing the arrangement of the tilt driving device 11 when the rotor head 4 of Fig. 1 is viewed from the windward side. In the relationship of the rotor head 4 in a one-to-one relationship, an inclination driving device 11 is provided for each of the wind turbine blades 6, which can be used to rotate the wind turbine blade 6 toward the periphery of the axis center (axis) L of the wind turbine blade 6 to change The angle of inclination of the windmill wing 6. A base portion (wing root portion) 21 is provided on the wing root side of the wind turbine blade 6, and the base portion 21 is rotatably supported by the rotor head 11 - 201038820 on the head 4 by the turning wheel bearing 23. The gyro wheel bearing 23 is composed of two rows of rolling bearings. Further, the turning wheel bearing 23 is not limited to a rolling bearing, and may be a sliding bearing. The base portion 21 is formed by sandwiching both end portions in the thickness direction of the inner ring 25 of the swirl wheel bearing 23 by a pair of drive plates 29. The drive plate 29 has a donut shape (annular shape) and is disposed to protrude further inward than the inner ring 25. That is, the inner diameter of the drive plate 29 is below the inner diameter of the inner ring 25. The outer wheel 27 of the gyro wheel bearing 23 is fixedly mounted on the rotor head 4. Since the wind turbine blade 6 is fixed to the inner wheel 25 of the slewing wheel bearing 23, it is rotatable relative to the rotor head 4. The rotor head 4 is provided with a support plate 31 having a substantially semicircular shape on the rotor rotation center side of the swirl wheel bearing 23. A through hole 33 is provided at a substantially central position of the support plate 31. The tilt driving device 11 includes a speed reducer 14, an electric motor 13, a tie rod 15, and a connecting rod (connecting rod) 17. Here, the support plate 31 may be formed (formed) by the same member as the rotor head 4, or may be formed of a member different from the rotor head 4, and the support plate may be bolted or the like. 31 is fixed to the rotor head 4. The electric motor 13 and the speed reducer 14 constitute the electric drive member of the present invention. The output of the electric motor 13 is transmitted to the output shaft 19 of the reduction gear 14 by the deceleration of the speed reducer 14. The electric motor 13 and the output shaft 19 of the speed reducer 14 pass through the through hole 33 and are positioned on the side of the wind turbine blade 6, and the center of the axis thereof is separated from the center L of the axis of the wind turbine blade 6 of -12-201038820. The upper portion is disposed substantially parallel to the axis center L, and is fixed to the inner peripheral side of the through hole 33 of the support plate 31. Since the electric motor 13 is driven by electric power, the electric power wiring is relatively simple in comparison with the hydraulic piping. Moreover, it is not necessary to carry out the connection work of the hydraulic piping, so there is no risk of foreign matter being mixed in and oil leakage. Moreover, there is no existence of a contact portion due to minute movements, so it is not necessary to consider the problem of wear damage. In addition, there is no such a short-lived part of the belt, so that frequent and complicated maintenance work can be omitted. By combining these factors, the long-term reliability of the tilt driving device 11 can be prevented from being impaired. The tie rod 15 and the connecting rod 17 are provided so as to extend in a direction substantially orthogonal to the center 〇 of the axis, in other words, to extend in a direction crossing the output shaft 19. That is, the tie rod 15 and the connecting Q-bar 17 are disposed along the extended surface of the drive plate 29. One end of the tie rod 15 is fixedly mounted to the output shaft 19. The other end (free end) of the tie rod 15 is rotatably coupled to one end of the coupling rod 17 by a bolt 35. The tie rod 15 is engaged with a spherical seat provided in a projection of the intermediate portion of the plug 35, and is allowed to be bent. A link pin 37 is mounted between a pair of drive plates 29. A convex spherical seat is provided at an intermediate portion of the link pin 37. The other end of the connecting rod 17 is engaged with the spherical seat of the link pin 37, and is rotatably and slantably coupled to the link pin 37. This link pin 37 forms the drive position p of the present invention. -13- 201038820 The front end (free end) of the output shaft 19 is (support member) 39. The bearing 39 is mounted on the bracket 41 of the I. One end of the output shaft 19 is supported by a bearing 39 by an electric motor. That is, the both ends of the output shaft 1 support structure, and thus can be stabilized: the inclination of the main shaft 8 of the rotor head 4 can be disposed on the periphery of the main axis 8 of the rotor head 4 as disclosed by the inclination of each of the wind turbine blades 6. Therefore, it can be placed on the plane intersecting with . Next, the power generation method by the above-described junction device 1 will be briefly described. In the wind power generator 1, the wind from the wind blown by the turning wind to the wind turbine blade 6 will rotate 4 toward the periphery of the rotation axis. The rotation of the rotor head 4 will be via the main unit 7, and the power required to generate the power generation object at the power generating device 7 is, for example, a frequency of 50 Η z per place, at least during power generation, acting on the windmill. On the wing 6, the nacelle can be suitably placed such that the rotor head 4 faces the upwind direction. Next, how the angle of inclination of the wing 6 is to be driven at an inclination angle will be explained. First, the electric motor mounted on the rotor head 4 is rotatably supported by the bearing [standing on the support plate 31 and supported by the crucible 13 and the other end 9 is supported and rotated at both ends. The moving device 11 is connected to the periphery of the fourth center, that is, the axis of rotation of the wind power generating head 4 composed of the axial direction of the rotor head 4 is converted so that the rotor head shaft 8 is transmitted to the power generation to correspond to The power supply is 60 Hz AC. In order to allow the wind to effectively rotate 3 on the horizontal plane, the device 1 1 controls the wind turbine motor 13 to operate -14-201038820 'The output shaft 19 rotates. When the output shaft 19 is rotated, the tie rod 15 will rotate along the plane of extension of the drive plate 29 centering on the center 0 of the axis of the output shaft 19. At this time, the axis center P1 of the latch for connecting the tie rod 15 and the connecting rod 17 will move on the track K i centering on the axis center 揭示 disclosed in Fig. 2 . That is, the 'axis center P1' will move in a circular manner. ◎ When the connecting portion of the tie rod 1 5 and the connecting rod 17 is moved by the center pi of the axis, the one end of the connecting rod 17 will move in a plane intersecting the axis of the wind turbine blade, thus causing the original engagement The other end of the link rod 17 of the link pin 37 also moves along the plane of extension of the drive plate 29. When the other end of the connecting rod 17 is moved, the movement of the connecting rod 17 will sometimes push the driving plate 29 via the link pin 37, and sometimes the driving plate 29 will be pulled so that the driving plate 29 will move. At this time, the drive position ◎ is set to move along the track K2. When the drive position P of the drive plate 29 is moved, the wind turbine blade 6 integrally formed with the drive plate 29 is rotated toward the periphery of the center of the axis. Therefore, the angle of inclination of the windmill wing can be adjusted. According to the present embodiment, for example, when the driving position P is located at the point C at the position shown in FIG. 2, the wind turbine blade 6 is in a negative tilt state (fine state; that is, a state in which the inclination angle approaches -9 0 degrees). At point A, the windmill blade 6 is in a feathering state. When the driving position P is at point A, the center of the axis p 1 is located at point b, -15-201038820. In addition, when the driving position P is at point C, the center of the axis P is located at point D, and the angle of inclination of the windmill blade 6 is The adjustment range, that is, the angle ALC at which the drive plate 29 is rotatable is approximately 95 degrees. The angle at which the drawbar 15 can rotate is approximately 180 degrees. The position of the center 0 of the axis, the length of the tie rod, and the length of the tie rod 17 are selected in such a manner as to ensure that the angle AOC is approximately 95 degrees. The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and may be appropriately modified as long as it does not depart from the gist of the invention.
