    Abstract: A pivoting wind turbine tower assembly includes at least one wind turbine, at least one base structure, and at least one lifting mechanism. The lifting mechanism includes a mounting shaft, a pivoting arm, a counterweight, a winch, and a cable. The mounting shaft is outwardly connected to the base structure. The pivoting arm is rotatably mounted to the mounting shaft. The wind turbine is terminally mounted to a first end of the pivoting arm. The counterweight is terminally mounted to a second end of the pivoting arm. The winch is mounted offset to the counterweight as the cable is tensionably connected between the counterweight and the winch. Resultantly, the rotational direction of the winch is able to move the orientation of the pivoting arm so that the wind turbine can be configured into a lowered position and a raised position about the mounting shaft.

    Abstract: An equipment for installing and dismantling of a wind turbine system including a tower, a nacelle and a blades is capable of self-climbing along the tower via upper and lower grippers moving up and down the supporting frame equipped with two booms along the tower. The two booms aren't able to turn around in horizontal plan but are able to hoist, for example, the nacelle and pivot it to the top of the tower before placing it on the positioning frame. In order to combine the nacelle to the tower, the nacelle resting on the positioning frame shall be adjusted to the location of the tower in horizontal plan before the positioning frame is lowering it to the tower.

    Abstract: A wind turbine (10) supported by a plurality of cables (20). The wind turbine (10) includes a tower (12) fixed at one end to a foundation (16) and including at least two tower sections (12a, 12b, 12c), including an upper section and a lower section. Each of the upper and lower sections includes an inwardly directed flange (82, 90) having a plurality of through-bores (84, 92). The inwardly directed flange (90) of the lower section further includes a plurality of second bores (104) spaced apart from the plurality of through-bores (92). An interface module (18, 120) is secured between the upper and lower section and includes a ring (62) from which one or more cars (50, 204) extend outwardly, each ear (50, 204) being configured to be coupled to one of the plurality of cables (20). The ring (62) includes a plurality of through-bores (72) that align with the through-bores (84, 92) in the inwardly directed flanges (82, 90) of each of the upper and lower tower sections and a plurality of additional bores (96) that align with the plurality of second bores (104) in the inwardly directed flange (90) of the lower section. A method of installing a wind turbine (10) having a cabled tower (12) is also disclosed.
