PRESTRESSED-BOLTED DRY-ASSEMBLED SEGMENTAL PRECAST HYBRID TOWER WITH GROUTING-FREE

The present invention discloses a prestressed-bolted dry-assembled segmental precast hybrid tower with grouting-free, comprising a top steel tower tube, a reverse self-balancing steal-concrete transition section, and a prestressed-bolted dry-assembled segmental precast concrete tower with grouting-free dry fast splicing and a gear reinforced wind turbine foundation; the steel tower tube, the steel-concrete transition section, the concrete tower tube and the hollow wind turbine foundation are integrally connected from top to bottom through a prestressed steel strand system to improve the overall bending resistance of the tower; the upper end of the prestressed steel strands is anchored to the steel-concrete transition section, and the lower end is anchored to the bottom face of the wind turbine foundation corbel; the concrete tower tube is composed of a number of segmental tapered precast concrete tower segments, which are grouting free spliced vertically, and the vertical splicing utilizes positioning pins to accurately position the installation position. The prefabricated concrete tower tube segment is formed by a number of circular arc-shaped prefabricated concrete pipe segments with circumferential grouting free dry splicing. The segments are spliced into a whole by prestressed bolts and then installed staggered from top to bottom to enhance the shear resistance.

MULTI-HEAD ADDITIVE PRINTING DEVICE FOR MANUFACTURING WIND TURBINE TOWER STRUCTURE

A system for manufacturing a tower structure of a wind turbine includes an additive printing device having a central frame structure with a platform and an arm member. The arm member is generally parallel to a longitudinal axis of the tower structure. The additive printing device also includes a plurality of robotic arms secured to the arm member of the central frame structure. Each of the robotic arms includes a printer head for additively printing one or more materials. The additive printing device further includes at least one nozzle configured for dispensing a cementitious material. Moreover, the system includes one or more molds additively printed via the additive printing device of a polymer material. As such, the mold(s) define inner and outer wall limits of the tower structure. After the mold(s) are printed and solidified, at least one of the printer heads or the nozzle of the additive printing device is configured to dispense the cementitious material between the inner and outer wall limits of the tower structure.
