Abstract: An assembly for joining together modules of a modular wind turbine blade. According to one embodiment the assembly is formed by a plurality of bolts that are secured between pairs of first and second inserts respectively housed in the composite material of first and second modules. According to one embodiment each assembly is formed by first and second lateral caps, upper wedge and a lower wedges located between the first and second lateral caps, and transverse screws joining the upper and lower wedges that together are formed around the corresponding bolt. When a force F1 is applied to the wedges, the lateral caps respond with forces F2 that urge the first and second modules away from one another to longitudinally stress the bolt.

Abstract: According to some implementations a bolted joint for modular blades is provided that comprises a single bolt that joins the inserts incorporated on the flange of the beam, screwing the two modules facing each other. A spacer is added to each bolt, and the bolts is then pre-tensioned by pulling, either mechanically separating the modules with a mechanical separator or thermally by applying heaters to the bolt and coolers to the spacer, or by torqueing the bolts.

Abstract: The invention relates to a tower section and to a method for raising said section with a complete new or existing wind turbine on the upper part thereof, the assembly being raised to heights greater than 120 meters by means of a raising system that operates at ground level and gradually inserts modular frame structures through the lower part. The modules have heights between 10 and 14 meters and are formed by a trellis of at least three vertical columns and with diagonal elements which react to the twisting moments and shear forces generated by the action of the wind. A transition part with a base sufficient for raising in wind conditions greater than 15 meters/second is disposed on top of the modules.

Abstract: Systems for assembling a wind turbine without the assistance of cranes. According to some implementations a system is provided that includes lifting systems having lifting platforms arranged peripherally around the tower. The lifting platforms cooperate with different connection tools that can be supported on an auxiliary column and thus lift or lower the tower modules.
