摘要:
The invention provides a turning stand for turning a rotor hub from a position having its prospective axis of rotation oriented vertically to a position having its prospective axis of rotation oriented inclined or transversally to a vertical orientation. The turning stand comprises a base frame, a curved support frame and a second attachment structure for attachment of a lifting device to the rotor hub. The base frame has a support plane and a first attachment structure for attachment to a rotor shaft link of a rotor hub, the support plane and the first attachment structure being arranged on opposite sides of the base frame. The curved support frame comprises a curved frame section and a straight frame section having a curved support surface section and a straight support surface section, respectively. The straight frame section with the straight support surface section is arranged laterally of the prospective axis of rotation of the rotor hub and the straight support surface section is angled to the prospective axis of rotation of the rotor hub by less than 15°. The curved frame section is connected between the base frame and the straight frame section such that the curved support surface section curves from the support plane to the straight support surface section. The second attachment structure is arranged laterally to the prospective axis of rotation of the rotor hub and is arranged on an opposite side of the position for the rotor hub with respect to the straight frame section. The invention further provides a method for turning a rotor hub from a position having its prospective axis of rotation oriented vertically to a position having its prospective axis of rotation oriented inclined or transversally to a vertical orientation. A rotor hub is provided in an inventive turning stand with a rotor shaft link of the rotor hub being attached to the first attachment structure. The second attachment structure is attached to the rotor hub. A lifting device is attached to the second attachment structure and lifts the second attachment structure, thereby rolling off the rotor hub on the curved support surface section until the prospective axis of rotation of the rotor hub is oriented in an angle with respect to ground corresponding to the angle of the axis of rotation of the rotor shaft with respect to ground.

A method for erecting a multirotor wind turbine (10) is disclosed. A carrier structure (1, 1a, 1b) is arranged circumferentially with respect to a tower structure (2) and hoisted to an upper part of the tower structure (2), using a hoisting arrangement, such as a wire winch arrangement (3, 4, 8). Furthermore, energy generating units (5) may be hoisted to the carrier structure (1, 1a, 1b) using the hoisting arrangement (3, 4, 8). A similar method for dismantling a multirotor wind turbine (10) is also disclosed. The multirotor wind turbine (10) can be erected or dismantled without the need for an external crane.

This application relates to tower segment handling methods and apparatus, and in particular to methods and apparatus for handling segments of steel wind turbine towers. The wind turbine tower comprises a plurality of cylindrical vertical tower sections, which in the finished tower are mounted on top of one another. The vertical section of the tower has a longitudinal axis and comprises a plurality of wind turbine tower segments, the tower segments have vertical and horizontal edges and combine to form a complete vertical tower section by joining along their vertical edges. Adjacent vertical tower sections are joined to each other along the horizontal edges of the wind turbine tower segments. The tower segments have support members facilitating storage and transport of the segments. A method of assembling and disassembling a tower section on a roller bed is also disclosed.

摘要:
The present invention relates to a service crane for a wind turbine comprising a nacelle and a hub. One or more wing blades is attached to the hub via a wing pitch bearing, and the service crane comprises an attachment foundation for connection to the hub. The service crane is adapted to be mounted on the wind turbine during operation and to be dismounted when not being used. The attachment foundation of the service crane is mounted on the hub of the wind turbine via the wing pitch bearing.
