- the present invention allows great ease in handling and assembly in the wind farm itself, since smaller parts have to be moved and joined, which also means that the joints between the parts of the blade) are made in a manner more simple, fast and guaranteeing the correct unions. As the joint is removable, damaged parts of a blade could be replaced by new ones without having to change the entire blade as is currently the case.
- the invention guarantees the use of the current molds for the manufacture of blades, being able to maintain the original design of the blade manufacturer, adding specific components to the rolling of the blades during the manufacturing process, to achieve the correct union of the blade sector with

Palas de aerogeneradores que consisten en varios tramos o sectores unidos a través de insertos específicamente diseñados que permiten que el montaje se realice en el parque eólico al pie de Ia torre. Estos insertos están colocados tanto por el interior como por el exterior de las palas originales, en una sola pieza o en varias y unidos a las palas mediante cualquier medio mecánico, físico, de fusión de materiales (soldaduras con y sin aportación de material), o bien mediante adhesivos u otro tipo de uniones diseñadas para tal función.
Description
SISTEMA REVERSIBLE DE SECC1ONAM1ENTO EN VARIAS PIEZAS DE PALAS DE
AEROGENERADORES
La presente invención se enmarca en el sector de Ia tecnología de los aerogeneradores, y mas concretamente al sector industrial encargado de Ia fabricación y montaje de palas de aerogeneradores, y se refiere a una alternativa para Ia el montaje de palas de aerogeneradores basada en Ia fabricación de dichas palas en secciones, de manera que el montaje final se realice mediante Ia utilización de insertos específicamente diseñados para ello. Estado de Ia técnica
Hasta Ia fecha, las palas se realizan todas uniendo diferentes componentes durante el proceso de fabricación en taller pero saliendo enteras de una sola pieza desde los grandes moldes que se emplean para el curado final del conjunto. El proceso de fabricación y el curado del material de Ia matriz y de los adhesivos empleados, es el que determina el tiempo de fabricación de las piezas. Una vez fabricada Ia pala, se presenta Ia dificultad de su almacenamiento y transporte debido a las grandes dimensiones de Ia misma. Así mismo, el montaje de éstas a los bujes, y de éste al eje del generador, se realiza movilizando unos conjuntos de grandes dimensiones, con Ia dificultad de montaje y fijado de las mismas que ello conlleva. La presente invención pretende ofrecer una solución novedosa a los problemas anteriormente expuestos. Son conocidos diversos trabajos con Ia misma intención, sin embargo, ninguno de ellos ni las invenciones registradas hasta Ia fecha, han demostrado su utilidad ni su capacidad para poder fabricar las palas en varias piezas y ensamblarlas en el lugar de utilización. Descripción de Ia invención
El fundamento de Ia invención está basado en Ia fabricación de las palas por tramos y el montaje de las mismas, uniendo los tramos en el parque eólico al pie de Ia torre, a través de insertos específicamente diseñados, con todas las ventajas que ello conlleva. Las principales ventajas de Ia presente invención son, por una lado Ia planificación de Ia producción de los distintos sectores implicados en Ia fabricación de las palas, sin depender de Ia velocidad de formado de Ia pala completa, sino de sus partes constitutivas. Por otro lado se permite el almacenaje de piezas de menor tamaño así como Ia planificación del transporte y utilización de medios de transporte de menor longitud y anchura, facilitando considerablemente Ia consecución de permisos y disminuyendo los plazos y costos derivados del transporte de las palas desde el punto de
fabricación al de instalación. La presente invención permite una gran facilidad en Ia manipulación y el montaje en el propio parque eólico, dado que se tienen que mover y unir piezas mas pequeñas, Io que supone también que las uniones entre las partes de Ia pala) se realizan de una manera mas sencilla, rápida y garantizando las correctas uniones. Como Ia unión es desmontable, se podrían sustituir partes dañadas de una pala por otras nuevas sin tener que cambiar Ia pala completa como ocurre en Ia actualidad.
La invención garantiza el uso de los moldes actuales para Ia fabricación de palas, pudiéndose mantener el diseño original del fabricante de palas, añadiéndose componentes específicos al laminado de las palas durante el proceso de fabricación, para conseguir Ia correcta unión del sector de Ia pala con el inserto. También pueden introducirse moldes específicos diseñados para conseguir Ia geometría necesaria para que Ia unión del inserto a los sectores de Ia pala, sea Ia adecuada para Ia correcta transmisión de los esfuerzos.
La unión del inserto con el sector de Ia pala puede resolverse con uniones tradicionales mecánicas, físicas, de fusión de materiales (soldaduras con y sin aportación de material), o bien mediante adhesivos otro tipo de uniones diseñadas para tal función.
La palas y los insertos pueden ser diseñados con distintas aperturas, ángulos, longitudes, geometrías, espesores así como diferentes calidades de materiales y tratamientos de todo tipo (térmicos, anticorrosivos, mecánicos, superficiales, etc.) que puedan aplicarse a éstos para cumplir con Ia función. También pueden diseñarse en diferentes materiales
(metales, aleaciones, aceros, poliamidas, plásticos técnicos, aluminios, mezclas de estos y/o cualquier material tanto reforzado con fibras o partículas de cualquier tipo como sin reforzar, que puedan aplicarse para cumplir Ia función) así como en diferentes características dúctiles, maleables, plásticas, elásticas, superficiales, resistentes, etc. que se propongan para mejorar dicha función. De igual manera, los insertos podrán colocarse por el interior o por el exterior de las palas originales y podrán realizarse de una sola pieza o con diversos componentes e insertos de mas de una pieza dispuestos a tal fin.
Para complementar Ia descripción que antecede y con objeto de ayudar a una mejor comprensión de las características de Ia invención, se va a realizar una descripción detallada de una realización preferida, en base a un juego de dibujos que acompañan a esta memoria descriptiva y en donde con carácter meramente indicativo y no limitativo se ha representado Io siguiente.
La Figura 1 muestra una vista frontal de una pala de un aerogenerador. La Figura 2 muestra una sección H-Il de Ia figura 1.
La Figura 3 muestra una vista en explosión del inserto en uno de los sectores de Ia pala.
La Figura 4 muestra una sección IV-IV de Ia figura 2. durante el montaje La Figura. 5 muestra una sección IV-IV de Ia figura 2 tras el montaje. En las anteriores figuras las referencias numéricas corresponden a las siguientes partes y elementos.
1. Sector 1 de Ia pala
2. Sector 2 de Ia pala
3. Pala
4. Inserto 5. tuerca flotante.
6. Cajón interno de Ia pala
7. Acceso exterior
8. Barra roscada de posicionamiento
Descripción detallada de una realización preferida.
La invención consiste, tal y como se ve en las figuras 1 y 3, en unir dos sectores 1 (1) y 2 (2) de Ia pala (3), cada uno de dichos sectores diseñados para absorber los esfuerzos de cortadura, flexión, tracción y torsión a los cuales están sometidos. La unión se realiza a través de un inserto (4) central de diseño específico para dicha función tal que ofrezca las características de rigidez, peso y resistencia mecánica adecuadas para el funcionamiento de Ia pala.
Tal y como se observa en las figuras 2 y 3, el inserto (4) debe adecuarse al cajón interno (6) de Ia pala, teniendo en cuenta las cargas que debe soportar, para Io que se inserta una tuerca flotante (5) en dicho inserto (4), a Ia que se Ie introduce una barra roscada de posicionamiento (8), Ia cual, al girarla en un sentido, hace perder sección al inserto (4), tal y como se ve en Ia figura 4, deformando el inserto (4) de manera que pueda ser introducido en el cajón interno (6) específico. Este mismo efecto podría conseguirse mediante otros sistemas cuyo fin fuera el de disminuir el tamaño del inserto para permitir su introducción en el núcleo central de Ia pala. Una vez introducido el inserto (4) en el cajón (6) correspondiente, se gira Ia barra roscada desde el acceso exterior (7) de los sectores de Ia pala, de forma que manipulándola en sentido contrario se consiga que este inserto, específicamente diseñado en forma dentada, vuelva a Ia posición original, tal y como se ve en Ia figura 5. El dentado del inserto (4) se acopla al dentado de los sectores de Ia pala favoreciendo Ia rigidez, peso y resistencia necesarios y adecuados para el funcionamiento de Ia pala.
Este fase del proceso podría presentar variaciones si se deseara realizar uniones permanentes (no desmontables), uniendo el inserto central a los sectores de Ia pala mediante adhesivos, remaches, tortillería de cualquier tipo, asientos cónicos interiores y/o cualquier otro medio conocido. De igual manera podrían producirse variaciones en caso de utilizar un elemento de conexión a Ia pala.
Tras introducir el inserto central, se refuerza el conjunto con insertos sencillos en los extremos de las uniones de los sectores de las palas específicamente diseñadas, como puede verse en Ia figura 2, y finalmente se sellan las pequeñas marcas superficiales que han quedado en Ia superficie de Ia pala para mejorar el comportamiento aerodinámico. Existen otras variantes de insertos y palas como es el caso de diseños con distintas aperturas, ángulos, longitudes, geometrías, espesores así como diferentes materiales, calidades y características de materiales y tratamientos de todo tipo, colocando los insertos por el interior o por el exterior de las palas originales y realizados en una sola pieza o con diversos componentes o insertos de mas de una pieza dispuestos a tal fin, respetando Ia esencialidad de Ia invención, que podemos decir que serán evidentes para un experto en Ia materia.
La unión principal, según el diseño de Ia pala podría producirse en zonas que no se correspondieran con el cajón central y, en todos los casos, podrían realizarse tanto por el interior como por el exterior de Ia pala.
