DEVICE FOR CLEANING YAW BRAKE PADS OF WIND POWER GENERATOR

摘要

The present invention relates to a device to clean yaw brake pads of a wind power generator having a brake disc installed in one end of its tower, and removable brake pads placed across the brake disc to contact and get separated from the brake disc to slow down the yaw rotational speed of a nacelle. The device to clean yaw brake pads of the wind power generator comprises a cleaning unit with a brush placed to contact brake pads, and removes foreign substances from the brake pads without having to disassemble a caliper body or the brake pads; thereby improving braking power.
