NACELLE FOR A WIND TURBINE, THE NACELLE COMPRISING SIDE UNITS

A nacelle for a wind turbine and a method for erecting a wind turbine are disclosed. The nacelle comprises a main unit arranged to be connected to a wind turbine tower, via a yawing arrangement, and at least one side unit mounted along a side of the main unit in such a manner that direct access is allowed between the main unit and the side unit(s), each side unit accommodating at least one wind turbine component, and at least one side unit being capable of carrying the wind turbine component(s) accommodated therein. The main unit and at least one of the side unit(s) are distributed side by side along a substantially horizontal direction which is substantially transverse to a rotational axis of a rotor of the wind turbine. A sufficient interior space of the nacelle is obtained while allowing the nacelle to be transported due to the modular construction. The weight of the wind turbine components is arranged close to the tower due to the transversal arrangement of the side unit(s) relative to the main unit.

Modularized ocean energy generating device

This invention provides a modularized ocean energy generating device including an outer frame, at least four inner frames, and at least four hydraulic generator modules. The at least four inner frames are detachably disposed in the outer frame. The at least four hydraulic generator modules are disposed in the at least four inner frames, respectively. The modularized ocean energy generating device in the invention includes at least four built-in modules, and the hydraulic generator modules can be distributed in an array. By the detachable inner frames and the outer frame, modularized assembly and installation can be realized, thereby greatly reducing preserving and installing costs.

ROTOR BLADE EXTENSION

A wind turbine rotor blade extension fitting element, which extension fitting element is designed as a rotor blade rib with a recess and which can be pushed onto the rotor blade tip of a rotor blade to be extended, in such a way that the rotor blade tip protrudes through the recess and contacts the circumferential surface of the recess in an positive-locking manner. The extension fitting element has, on its outer circumference, an outer circumferential surface onto which a shell-like rotor blade extension can be pushed in an positive-locking manner. A core of the extension fitting element has slits and/or boreholes which, for stabilization, are filled with a material that has a higher strength and/or stiffness than the material of the core. In this way, the extension fitting element is strengthened for the transfer of high loads.
