Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, performing maintenance according to the prior art is difficult and complicated because only a limited part of the wind turbine blade is accessible from the maintenance room
Therefore, maintenance cabins according to the prior art are not efficient for maintaining wind turbine blades

Embodiment Construction

[0091] Figure 1-Figure 2 The service platform 1 enclosing a part of the wind turbine blade 2 is shown in perspective and from the side, respectively.

[0092] It should be noted that in all figures the wind turbine blades 2 are mounted on the wind turbine, although not shown in the figures for the sake of simplicity. Furthermore, it should be noted that directional terms such as horizontal, vertical, upwards and downwards should be understood in relation to the maintenance platform in the operating position, i.e. between the floor 4 of the maintenance platform 2 and the wind turbine mounted on the wind turbine. When the generator blades 2 are substantially parallel at or near the horizontal position.

[0093] At certain points in the service life of the wind turbine blade 2 maintenance must be carried out due to cracks eg from fatigue loads and wear to the leading edge 10 of the wind turbine blade 2 due to collisions with eg raindrops. adjust as Figure 1-Figure 2 The main...

Abstract

Disclosed is a maintenance enclosure (1) for use when maintaining a wind turbine blade (2). The maintenance enclosure (1) comprising a ceiling (3), a floor (4) and at least two side walls (5a,5b) extending between the ceiling (3) and the floor (4). The maintenance enclosure also comprising a first adjustable opening (6) in a first side wall (5a) of the at least two side walls (5a, 5b) adapted forreceiving the wind turbine blade (2) and a second adjustable opening (7) in a second side wall (5b) of the at least two side walls (5a, 5b) adapted for receiving the wind turbine blade (2). The firstadjustable opening (6) and the second adjustable opening (7) are positioned opposite each other and the said floor (4) comprises a slit (8) extending at least a portion of the distance between the first adjustable opening (6) and the second adjustable opening (7). Also, the slit (8) is adapted for receiving the wind turbine blade (2). Furthermore, a method for maintaining a wind turbine blade (2)is disclosed.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a maintenance platform used when maintaining blades of wind power generators, wherein the maintenance platform comprises a ceiling, a floor and at least two side walls extending between the ceiling and the floor. The invention also relates to a method for servicing a wind turbine blade. Background technique [0002] Wind turbines have become a source of increasing amounts of energy around the world. These devices generate energy by spinning a set of blades in the wind, which drives a generator that produces the energy. Blades are known to be particularly susceptible to severe wear, especially at the tip of the blade, due to direct exposure to the environment and high tangential velocities. When a wind turbine blade rotates, the leading edge of the blade may collide with, for example, raindrops. The angular velocity and length of the wind turbine blades cause high energy impacts between the raindrops and the leading edge of t...
