Abstract: A damping device and a wind turbine generator system comprising the damping device. The damping device comprises: damping components; structural supports, the structural supports connecting the damping components to a mass block provided on an object to be damped, each structural support comprising a gear, and the gear being rotatably provided on the structural support; and guide rails, wherein each guide rail has a predetermined curvature, each guide rail has a first end used for being rotatably connected to the object to be damped and a second end supported on the corresponding structural support, a tooth portion engaged with a gear is formed on a side portion of each guide rail, and when the mass block swings, the swing of the mass block is converted into transmission by means of the engagement transmission between the guide rail and the gear for input into the corresponding damping component.

Abstract: A slip ring apparatus, a yaw system, and a wind turbine generator set are provided. The slip ring apparatus includes a rotating part and a fixed part, the rotating part can rotate relative to the fixed part, a conductive ring is provided on the rotating part, an electric brush is provided on the fixed part, and a chute is formed in at least one of the conductive ring and the electric brush, so that when the conductive ring and the electric brush are in contact, the chute can discharge abrasive dust generated when the conductive ring and the brush are in contact, thereby suppressing the increase of fretting contact resistance between the conductive ring and the electric brush.
