Abstract: A combination including a crane and a load guiding arrangement arranged for mounting to the crane for controlling the orientation of a load suspended in a crane boom from a bearing wire about the bearing wire is provided. The load guiding arrangement includes: —two winches placed on the crane, —two taglines connected with the winches and two attachment brackets attached in a top zone of the crane boom and being connected to the load for applying a controlled torque to the load about the bearing wire. The load guiding arrangement furthermore includes: —for each winch a winch frame, which is arranged for mounting directly on the crane next to or on the crane counterweight in positions at each side of the crane and —two tagline redirection devices, for example snatch blocks which are connected with the load.

Abstract: There is described a system for transferring components from a vessel to a fixed structure comprising a crane. The system comprises: A—providing a heave compensator between the bearing wire and the component, B-I providing at least one active clamp being arranged with connection means for connection between the vessel and the component, wherein said active clamp is arranged for being controlled by a controller being able to release the clamp and thereby free the component from its connection to the vessel, or B-II providing an accumulator is arranged for being controlled by a controller in order to release compressed air from the accumulator into the piston-cylinder unit and thereby free the component from its position on the vessel by initiating a lift of the component. The lifting of the component is effects when the vessel is near a wave crest based on a monitoring of the wave movement.

Abstract: The system (1) for lifting and controlling the horizontal orientation and/or position of components (90), such as wind turbine main components, during installation and/or dismounting of said components comprises: a crane boom arrangement (3) and one or more lifting lines (3a) guided by said crane boom arrangement (3) for lifting said components. The system moreover comprises a lifting device (10) comprising a crane connection arrangement (11) connected to said one or more lifting lines (3a), a frame arrangement (12) connected to said crane connection arrangement (11), a first and a second steering wire guide (13a, 13b) configured for guiding steering wires (20a, 20b), and a component connection arrangement (30) connected to said frame arrangement and configured to be connected directly or indirectly to the component to be lifted.

Abstract: System (1) for craneless blade (6) mounting and dismounting at wind turbines (2), wherein the system (1) at least comprises a blade tip beam (9) to be fixed at the blade (6) and a blade supporting structure (15) to be connected with and to guide and secure the blade tip beam (9) while the supporting structure (15) is displaced in a substantially horizontal direction, whereby total control of the blade (6) when moved from vertical position towards horizontal position and until the blade (6) is safe on a cradle or support (15) or opposite during mounting is achieved.
