The invention concerns a wind turbine in accordance with the preamble of claim 1. Such a wind turbine is known, e.g. from
The disadvantage of the known device is that the ring of the main bearing that is attached to the housing has to be designed strong enough to support both tracks of this ring, which increases the costs of the main bearing.
In order to improve on this the wind turbine is in accordance with claim 1. In this way the two tracks of the first ring are both supported in a symmetric way by a stiffener, so that the first ring of the main bearing is properly supported for transmitting external rotor loads such as gravitational forces and aerodynamic forces that are generated by the rotor and the vanes.
This design makes it possible to have an effective and strong braking system for the rotor.
This way the brake disk also reinforces the second ring.
In accordance with an embodiment, the wind turbine is according to claim 2. By increasing the area moment of inertia in the specified way the first ring is sufficiently stiffened to increase the allowable load on the main bearing considerably.
In accordance with an embodiment, the wind turbine is according to claim 3. In this way the tracks on the second ring are better supported so that the deformations of both the first ring and the second ring are more reduced and the rotating elements are more evenly loaded, which reduces the stress on each rotating element and on the tracks.
In accordance with an embodiment, the wind turbine is according to claim 4. This way the rotor can be locked in a fixed rotative position in an easy way.
In accordance with an embodiment the wind turbine is according to claim 5. This makes a compact design possible.
The invention will be explained hereafter based on an embodiment with the use of a drawing. In the drawing
A stator 8 of a generator is fixedly mounted on the conical housing ring 7 and comprises the electrical windings of the stationary part of the generator. A generator ring 9 forms the rotating part of the generator and is clamped with a generator flange 11 to the outer bearing ring 23. The generator ring 9 rotates with the rotor R. The rotating generator ring 9 is provided with magnets 10 which move during rotation of the rotor R and the vanes 13 along the stator 8 and its electrical windings to generate electrical power.
The tower 1 has a height of more than 30 meters and the rotor with the vanes 13 has a diameter of more than 30 meters. The main bearing 12 has a large diameter, for instance an outer diameter of more than 2000 mm.
The main bearing 12 has an outer bearing ring 23 which is at one side connected with bolts 21 to the generator flange 11 and at the other side with bolts 25 via the brake disk 19 to the hub flange 20 and the hub 15. The outer bearing ring 23 has a roller track 22 which is supported via rollers 26 by roller track 29 on the first inner ring 28 and also a roller track 24 which is supported via rollers 26 on roller track 30 of the second inner ring. The load on the main bearing 12 comprises mainly gravitational forces and aerodynamic forces generated by the rotating rotor R with the hub 15 and the vanes 13.
The load is transferred via the roller tracks 22 and 24, the rollers 26 and the roller tracks 29 and 30 to the housing flange 6 and the housing ring 7.
It has been found that the deformation of the roller tracks 22, 24, 29 and 30 by the rollers 26 determines the allowable load on the main bearing 12. This deformation depends to a large extend how the main bearing 12 is supported by its surroundings. In a wind turbine whereby the hub 15 of the rotor is directly coupled to the generator (direct drive, no gearbox), the main bearing 12 has a large diameter and is on the inside open so that the hub 15 and the vanes 13 can be accessed from the inside. The generator and the hub 15 are coupled to one or both sides of the outer ring 23 and the housing 4 is connected via the housing ring 7 to one side of the main bearing 12. It has been found that in this design generally one of the roller tracks 29, 30 of the inner rings 28, 32 is not supported in a sufficient stiff way so that undesired deformations occur which lead to high stresses on the roller tracks 22,24,29 and 30 and/or rollers 26.
In order to improve on this the main bearing 12 is on both sides of the assembled inner ring 28, 32 supported by a stiffener that adds at least 50% and preferably 100% to its area moment of inertia in the radial direction. On the one side of the inner ring 28, 32 the housing flange 6 acts as stiffener and directly supports the roller track 29. At the other side of the assembled inner ring 28, 32 the brake ring 17 acts as stiffener and directly supports the roller track 30. The brake ring 17 is coupled with bolts 31 to the second inner ring 32.
The outer ring 23 is reinforced on one side by the generator flange 11 which acts as stiffener and directly supports the roller track 22 and the brake disk 19 and/or the hub flange 20 act(s) as stiffener for the other side of the outer ring 23 and directly support(s) the roller track 24. The stiffeners on the four sides of the main bearing support the roller tracks 22, 24, 29 and 30 so that the deformations of the tracks are reduced and the play over the whole length of the roller 26 between the roller tracks 22 and 28 and the roller tracks 24 and 30 and the respective rollers 26 does not change under load. In this way the load capability and so the service life of the main bearing 12 is increased.
It will be clear to those skilled in the art that the described stiffener rings for preventing deformation of the tracks of a roller bearing can be applied to main bearings of various designs in which are there at least four tracks for the rollers. In the described embodiment, there are two rows of rollers 26 of conical shape whereby each row of conical rollers 26 rolls between two tracks. The invention is also applicable in the situations with different designs for the main bearing. An example of this is a roller bearing with three rows of cylindrical rollers that roll between six tracks. A further example is a roller bearing with one row of rollers in which the rollers roll between four tracks and are placed in turns crosswise. In all these designs, either the inner ring or the outer ring might be assembled from two rings in order to make assembling the roller bearing possible. For limiting the deformations of the tracks, both the inner ring and the outer ring will be supported on both sides.
For stopping the rotation of the rotor with the vanes 13 the brake ring 17 is provided with brakes 35 which act on a brake surface 33 of the brake disk 19. For blocking the rotation of the rotor the brake surface 33 has lock pin holes 37 (see
