Abstract:
A method for manufacturing a wind turbine blade shell part (11) made of a fibre-reinforced composite structure, including steps of mounting a plurality of fastening devices (74) on a mounting plate (70) to form a root end assembly, the mounting plate comprising one or more first openings (101) for evacuating air; arranging the root end assembly over a mould surface (22) of a mould (20); arranging an air-tight cover member (80) so as to form a mould cavity; evacuating air from the mould cavity via at least the one or more first openings of the mounting plate; and supplying a polymer into the mould cavity and allowing the polymer to cure so as to form the composite structure. A root end assembly for use in the method is also provided.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a wind turbine blade and a method for its production. The wind turbine blade comprises an upwind side shell part and a downwind side shell part. The upwind side shell part and the downwind side part are bonded together along at least one joint. At said at least one joint, the upwind side shall part and the downwind side shell part are bonded at an internal glue flange as well as at an external glue flange. The glue flange can be produced by using a mould insert along which the glue flange is laminated.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a teach pendant for teaching or operating a robot, the teach pendant being configured to be electrically coupled to the robot by one or more electrical cables. The teach pendant in a first operating mode is configured to transmit an instruction signal to the robot via a first electrical coupling provided by a first electrical cable, and the teach pendant in a second operating mode is configured to transmit the instruction signal to the robot via a first wireless communication link.
Abstract:
A rotor blade assembly includes a rotor blade defining a pressure side and a suction side extending between a leading edge and a trailing edge. Further, the rotor blade assembly includes at least one structural feature secured within the rotor blade and spaced apart from the trailing edge to define a void between the pressure side, the suction side, and the trailing edge. Moreover, the rotor blade assembly includes an adhesive filling the void between the pressure side, the suction side, and the trailing edge to provide an adhesive connection between the pressure side, the suction side, the trailing edge, and the structural feature(s). In addition, the adhesive contacts the structural feature(s) at an interface and defines a fillet profile.
Abstract:
A method and an associated robot for retrieval of a target article from an article stack are disclosed. The article stack comprising the target article and a first non-target article being positioned on top of the target article, the target article being arranged in the article stack with a lower target article face being at a first vertical stack position. The method comprises: identifying the target article; positioning a platform having a platform surface in a first vertical platform position wherein the platform surface is at the first vertical stack position or below the first vertical stack position; repositioning the target article and the first non-target article in a first horizontal direction onto the platform; and repositioning the first non-target article opposite the first horizontal direction off the platform.
Abstract:
Applying of pinning sleeves (10) be it tube shaped pinning inner sleeves of paper or tube shaped coat holding pinning sleeves of plastic onto upright standing pelt boards (4) in e.g. a drying wagon (2) represents a work environmental workload for the person who perform this work, in addition the work is slow, as the pinning sleeves has to be raised to a relatively high level before the can be applied onto the pelt boards. In order to remedy this problem there is disclosed a method for applying pinning sleeves which comprises a supply (22) of pinning sleeves (10) is arranged in a vertically - and horizontally displaceable, and optional lockable holding unit (20), which also may be tilt able and optional tilted lockable in a level above the nose ends (6) of the pelt boards, and preferably so that a centre axis (23) of a pinning sleeve (10) at least over a part of the pinning sleeve (10) closest to and above the nose ends (6) of the pelt boards is, or can be oriented parallel with the length axis of the pelt boards, from where the individual pinning sleeve (10) easily by a downwards drag, can be lead to correct position on a pelt board (4). There is further disclosed a pinning sleeve (10) comprising a holding area (90) for use in practicing the method according to the invention. The use of the method represents a solution on a major problem regarding ergonomically appropriate working position in the fur industry
