Abstract: A hub for a wind turbine is longitudinally extended along a longitudinal axis between a front tip and a rear shaft flange is provided. The hub comprises: at least one blade flange for connecting a respective blade to the hub, at least one top edge on an external surface of the hub, the top edge being positioned with respect to a vertical direction over the front tip, when the hub is positioned in a service position, a plurality of service steps, each step) being oriented for permitting an individual to move between the front tip and the top edge or between the rear shaft flange and the top edge when the hub is positioned around the longitudinal axis in the service position.

Abstract: A hub for a wind turbine which includes a hub body having a first blade bearing flange, a second blade bearing flange and a main bearing flange, and a stiffening structure stiffening a first portion of the hub body, wherein the first portion is arranged adjacent to the main bearing flange and between the first blade bearing flange and the second blade bearing flange. This hub has the advantage that a stiffness (or a rigidity) of the hub body can be increased close to the main bearing flange.
