Abstract: A main shaft fixture for fixing a main shaft on a wind turbine during installation and repair work on heavy parts of the wind turbine nacelle, in the case where the fixture is formed of several sections for mounting on stable structural parts in the nacelle, including the nacelle's bottom frame. The main shaft fixture has adjustable pressure mandrels with tap shoes, which cause the fixture to be usable regardless of the turbine main shaft geometry, such that it can be mounted without fixing the rotor. The main shaft fixture also has facilities for mounting of a lightweight crane and a self-hoisting crane with a ground-based winch, respectively, as well as a rotor lock which, in combination with actuators of the main shaft fixture, enables the main shaft and the main shaft bearing to be sufficiently displaced vertically from its bearing in the nacelle to service or replace the bearing.

Abstract: A method for automatic control of the position of a burden suspended in a main wire of a crane, where the burden is connected with at least two tag lines which respectively is connected to a number of winches. The control of the position and rotation of the burden is performed by actuators on the respective winches which perform ease off/tightening of the respective tag lines from signals of at least tone measuring unit with signal transmitter located on the burden measuring angles. A central monitoring- and control unit performs control of rotation and position of the burden by multiple transmitting of compensatory control signals to relevant actuators for tag lines and the crane main wire. Guiding and control of the position of the burden is possible even when subject external random impacts, as wind and sea. Further the method is useable in positioning the burden in correct mounting position.

Abstract: A crane includes a double wire guide and anchoring bracket arranged in the nacelle of a wind turbine for hoisting-up and -down of heavy parts of the wind turbine arranged in the nacelle. The crane includes an external winch with wires, located near the base of the tower of the wind turbine, the winch being connected via the wire guide to a pulley block including a crane hook at the end of the crane outrigger arm. The particular by the wire guide is, that it by two set of pivotally mounted wire wheels, mounted respectively on a fixed bracket part of the crane, and the pivotal mounted part of the crane, controls the wires of the crane within an pivot interval between +/?175 degrees from a 0-reference point, so that the wires never touch each other.

Abstract: A device for establishing admittance and transport of cargo to and from a wind turbine construction above ground level and having a part which can be raised and/or lowered by wires and winches located at ground level and connected with snatch blocks attached to a part so that it can be raised and/or lowered in relation to the construction. The part has a number of travelling crabs according to the numbers of winches and the travelling crabs are guided of the wires between the winches and the snatch blocks, and that the part with the travelling crabs is displaced upwards or downwards by the wires. Advantageously, the wires are used for both hoisting the part and as guide for the travelling crabs.

Abstract: A method for establishing access for mounting and dismounting of main shafts, gearbox, generator and other main parts located in the nacelle of a wind turbine, where the cabriolet remains localized on the nacelle, and guide transfer mechanisms are provided for mounting inside the nacelle. The basic idea is that the cabriolet is lifted upon rolls or roll sets which form the guide transfer mechanisms upward facing support surfaces, and that the cabriolet is stabilized by displaceable counter holds which are displaced and locked in position above the downwards positioned mounting flange, upon which the cabriolet can be displaced on the rollers or roll sets to a partly cantilevered position over the rear end of the nacelle. By the method, service on larger wind turbines can be performed without using mobile cranes, which saves resources.
