The wind energy resource is used as a clean renewable energy source, widely exists in the world, is rich in resources, is inexhaustible, and is environment-friendly. The wind power generation has the characteristics of safety and cleanness, and can provide long-term stable energy supply for human beings. The performance of a main shaft bearing in the wind turbine generator directly determines the running reliability of the wind turbine generator, and the design of the main shaft bearing is an important component of the design of a transmission chain. The self-aligning roller bearing has the characteristics of strong bearing capacity, simple manufacture and good assembly manufacturability, and currently, the commercial operation megawatt wind turbine generator is mostly in the form of a double-row spherical roller bearing, and the specifications of the two rows of rollers are the same, but because the wind turbine generator is a horizontal shaft unit, the thrust force born by a wind wheel is extremely large in the running process of the wind turbine generator, and the thrust load is borne by a main shaft bearing. Because the design characteristics of the double-row aligning roller bearing are that when thrust is received in the upwind direction, the roller load on the downwind side is far greater than that on the upwind side, the stress difference of the two rows of rollers is at least 3 times according to field test, the stress imbalance of the front row of rollers and the rear row of rollers and the abrasion of the roller path of the front row of rollers are serious, the problem can cause the main shaft to move backwards, and because the wind power main machine is arranged on a tower with the diameter of more than 70m, the lifting installation cost is up to more than 100 ten thousand yuan each time, the wind power generation capacity of a wind field is influenced, a large amount of manpower and material resources are consumed, the service life of a unit is seriously influenced, and the great development of the wind power industry is necessarily hindered.

The support bearing of the main transmission system of the wind driven generator is various in selection, wherein the doubly-fed wind turbine generator often uses two sets of double-row aligning roller bearings to jointly support the main shaft, and the aligning roller bearings are high in bearing capacity and can compensate coaxiality errors caused by machining, installation and deformation of a shaft or a seat, so that the doubly-fed wind turbine generator can be widely applied to a support structure of the main shaft of the wind driven generator. The bearing at one side of the gear box is a positioning end bearing, can perform axial positioning, can bear axial load and radial load at the same time, and is used for guaranteeing the stability of a transmission system. However, in the use process, the bearing of the positioning end at the side of the gear box is found to have serious unbalanced load, and single-row failure is easily caused by unbalanced load. However, under the action of certain wind load, the axial force born by the positioning end aligning roller bearing can be multiple times of the radial force, at the moment, only one row of rollers of the double-row aligning roller bearing are born, the other row of rollers are in no-load slipping, and the phenomena of uneven stress distribution, edge stress, large axial play, temperature rise, aggravation of abrasion, early fatigue peeling and the like of one row of bearing can occur, and finally, the main shaft can move backwards.
