Description

Cleaning device and method for main shaft bearing of wind turbine generator
Technical Field
The application relates to the technical field of wind turbine generator system cleaning, in particular to a cleaning device and a cleaning method for a main shaft bearing of a wind turbine generator system.
Background
Along with the continuous progress of technology, environmental protection has become one of the important concerns. In order to solve the problem of air pollution, the generation of pollutants can be effectively reduced by replacing thermal power generation with clean renewable new energy sources such as wind power. The maintenance of the wind turbine generator is a main problem faced by wind power generation. At present, 1250kW type wind turbine generator system adopted by wind power generation is easy to generate a transmission chain backward fault. Out of 78 products put into production in 2009, 26 transmission chain backward faults occur in total, the model fault rate is 33%, and the cost investment and the electric quantity loss are up to 1300 ten thousand yuan. The main shaft bearing is an important component of the wind turbine generator, and the running state of the main shaft bearing is gradually reduced along with the increase of the service life of the wind turbine generator. In combination with the recent main bearing failure mode, the failure probability is at least twice lower than that of the axial lubrication path due to the fact that the failure mode is mainly caused by a severe lubrication environment and the radial lubrication path is adopted by the old type bearing through research. At present, bearing problems can be identified in advance through various technological means, but effective governance measures are lacking in aspects of improvement of lubricating environment of the main bearing and optimization of solving on a lubricating path tower.
As shown in fig. 1, a lubrication circuit of a main bearing 001 of a conventional wind turbine generator is designed such that grease injection holes 002 are axially opened from above end caps on both sides, and grease discharge holes 003 are axially opened from below end caps on both sides. Grease is injected from grease inlets 002 on two sides of the main bearing 001, flows through the oil chamber 004, and flows into the bearing raceways 005 for lubrication after the oil chamber 004 is filled. It can be seen that grease is deposited after passing through the oil chamber 005 and is then carried into the raceway 005 by means of the rotation of the rolling elements. However, due to the insufficient design of the lubrication system of the main shaft bearing in the oil injection direction, the oil cavity is large, the carrying capacity is weak, and the phenomenon of poor oil discharge capacity is caused. Therefore, the base oil in the grease is separated out in the oil chamber with the increase of time, so that the grease is saponified and hardened, and finally the phenomenon that new grease flows into the main bearing raceway, namely, new oil cannot be injected and old oil cannot be discharged is hindered. Moreover, because the main shaft bearing works in a relatively severe lubrication state for a long time, the excessive copper/iron substances generated by long-term abrasion can cause fish scale peeling damage to the parts of the bearing roller, the rollaway nest, the inner ring, the flange and the like, so that the bearing finally and thoroughly fails under the action of the axial force of the transmission chain and the whole transmission chain moves backwards, thereby triggering serious faults.

As shown in fig. 2, the cleaning device for a main shaft bearing of a wind turbine generator includes: comprising a main shaft 1, an end cap 2 arranged around the main shaft 1 and a cleaning device 3.
As shown in fig. 2, the end cap 2 may include a bearing housing 21, an oil chamber 22, a bearing assembly 23, an oil injection hole 24, an oil drain hole 25, and an injection hole 26.

In one embodiment, the seal is made of a metal seal.
Specifically, the metal sealing member can be tightly attached to the device, so that the sealing stability of the oil drain hole 25 is ensured, the flow direction of cleaning liquid or lubricating oil in the cleaning or lubricating process is ensured, and the smoothness and stability of the waste oil outflow process are ensured.

Wherein one end of the input pipe 33 communicates with the container 31, and the other end of the input pipe 33 communicates with the injection hole 26. Meanwhile, one end of the output pipe 34 is connected to the container 31, the other end of the output pipe 34 is connected to the at least one oil drain hole 25, and the pump 32 is provided on the input pipe 33.
Thereby, the cleaning liquid or the lubricating oil is injected from the container 31 to the injection hole 26 through the input pipe 33 based on the power generated by the pump 32 of the cleaning apparatus 3. When the lubricating oil is injected, the process lubricates the bearing assembly 23 by injecting the lubricating oil into the oil chamber 22, and then discharges the waste oil into the output pipeline 34 through the unified oil drain hole 25, thereby realizing the lubrication of the main shaft bearing of the wind turbine generator and avoiding the accumulation of the waste oil. When the cleaning liquid is injected, the process cleans and dissolves the deposited waste oil in the oil chamber 22 through a harmless cleaning path, and simultaneously thoroughly dredges the oil drain hole 25.
In one embodiment, the pump 32 is a portable variable frequency pump, so that the flow rate and the speed of the lubricating oil or the cleaning liquid can be adjusted according to the condition of the main shaft bearing of the wind turbine generator, and the pump can be flexibly applied to various lubrication and cleaning requirement scenes of the main shaft bearing of the wind turbine generator.
