Embodiment Construction

[0025] figure 1 A bearing 1 is shown comprising an outer ring 2 and an inner ring 3 having a plurality of reservoirs 4 attached thereto during disposal of used lubricant. The bearing 1 is part of the wind turbine, ie serves in particular as a support for the rotor blades. Current memory 4 (see Figure 2-6 ) when the hollow matrix 5 is filled with lubricant, the matrix 5 expands from the compressed and unfilled state to the expanded and filled state, wherein the filling degree of the matrix 5 corresponds substantially to its volume, that is, the volume of the matrix 5 basically depends on the filling degree. increase, as will refer to Figure 2-6 are described in more detail below.

[0026] figure 2 , image 3 A perspective view and a side view are shown of a reservoir 4 in a compressed, unfilled state according to a first embodiment of the invention. The reservoir 4 comprises a hollow, concertina-shaped base 5 for containing lubricant. The base body 5 comprises an inle...

Abstract

The invention relates to a repository (4) for a lubricant, comprising a closed hollow base body (5) for accommodating a lubricant, with the base body (5) comprising an inlet (6) for filling in a lubricant, but having no gas outlet, wherein the base body (5) comprises an expanding means, with the expanding means being adapted to expand the base body (5) from a compressed non-filled into an expanded filled state by filling the lubricant into the base body (5).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a reservoir for lubricant comprising a closed hollow base for containing lubricant, the base comprising an inlet for filling with lubricant but no gas outlet. Background technique [0002] Changing or disposing of used lubricants such as oils, greases or similar used in bearing assemblies or bearings of a wind turbine, in particular of the rotor hub or rotor blades, is an important measure in order to maintain the performance of the wind turbine and service life. Thus, the bearing assembly or bearing is provided with new lubricant for replacing the used lubricant. [0003] In order to dispose of the used lubricant, the bearing at least temporarily includes a reservoir or container for collecting the used lubricant. Accordingly, different types of reservoirs are available. [0004] Thus, reservoirs with gas outlets or gas filters prevent build-up of internal pressure, but these reservoirs often have leakage problems, ie lubri...
