The invention discloses a mechanical
coupling type magnetic suspension wind
turbine generator
yaw system which is applied to a large and medium wind
turbine generator. The mechanical
coupling type magnetic suspension wind
turbine generator
yaw system comprises a
planet gear, a conical gear, an
electromagnetic clutch, vertical suspension windings, horizontal suspension windings and
yaw motors. Wind turbine generator yaw mechanical torque and yaw
motor torque are coupled through
planet gear torque to drive a wind turbine generator cabin to be yawed. The wind turbine generator yaw mechanical torque is taken from
electric generator front side wind turbine generator torque through the
electromagnetic clutch and the conical gear with the fixed
transformation ratio. The yaw
motor torque is controlled by a bidirectional
PWM converter during cabin suspension, cabin suspension is jointly controlled by the horizontal suspension windings and the vertical suspension windings, the cabin gravity is balanced through the horizontal suspension windings, the vertical suspension windings restrain off-centering, the yaw motors can work in the two
modes including the electric mode and the regenerative braking mode through changes of the wind turbine generator yaw torque, and bidirectional energy flowing is completed through the
PWM converter. According to the mechanical
coupling type magnetic suspension wind turbine generator
yaw system, the yaw power energy conversion link is omitted, the yaw
power consumption is greatly reduced, and the wind energy use rate is improved.
