Abstract: A method of transporting a blade for a wind turbine generator, includes attaching a blade root support frame to a root flange of the blade and attaching a blade spanwise support frame to a spanwise portion of the blade, connecting a first wheel base to the spanwise support frame, and connecting a transport unit to the root support frame. In another aspect, the blades may be stacked by use of the support frames without use of further equipment.

Abstract: An aspect of the invention involves a method of transporting a blade for a wind turbine generator, the method comprising attaching a blade root support frame to a root flange of the blade and attaching a blade spanwise support frame to a spanwise portion of the blade as well as connecting a first wheel base to the spanwise support frame, and connecting a transport unit to the root support frame, where the transport unit includes a carrying structure and a second wheel base with at least one axle and two wheels, and where the transport unit before being connected to the root support frame, is moved into a position partly underneath the blade root, and where the second wheel base is underneath the blade and the carrying structure is underneath the root support frame. As the transport unit is moved into a position underneath the blade, such that the second wheel base is underneath the blade and the carrying structure is underneath the root support frame, the load from the root end of the blade is distributed between a truck or tractor, which is used for the transport, and the second wheel base, which lowers the axle pressure of the truck or tractor. Moreover, as the carrying structure is underneath the root support frame, only vertical load may be applied from the transport unit, such that forces and torque applied on the blade are substantially decreased compared to the known art. A second aspect involves that blades may be stacked by use of the support frames without use of further equipment.

Abstract translation: 本发明的一个方面涉及一种运输用于风力涡轮发电机的叶片的方法，所述方法包括将叶片根部支撑框架附接到叶片的根部凸缘并且将叶片翼展方向支撑框架连接到叶片的翼展方向部分 将第一轮基座连接到翼展支撑框架上，以及将运输单元连接到根部支撑框架上，其中运输单元包括承载结构和具有至少一个轴和两个车轮的第二轮底座，并且其中运输单元 在连接到根支撑框架之前，被移动到叶片根部的部分下方的位置，并且其中第二轮基座在叶片的下方，并且承载结构位于根部支撑框架的下方。 当运输单元移动到叶片下方的位置时，使得第二轮底座位于叶片下方，并且承载结构位于根部支撑框架的下方，来自叶片根部的负载分布在卡车或拖拉机之间 ，用于运输，第二轮底座降低了卡车或拖拉机的车轴压力。 此外，由于承载结构位于根部支撑框架的下面，所以只能从传送单元施加垂直载荷，使得与已知技术相比施加在叶片上的力和扭矩显着降低。 第二方面涉及通过使用支撑框架而不使用其他设备来堆叠叶片。
