Abstract: The invention relates to a wind turbine, comprising a blade, a hub and a bearing for mounting the blade to the hub comprising an inner bearing ring and an outer bearing ring, wherein the blade is connected to the inner bearing ring or the outer bearing ring, wherein the blade comprises multiple cross holes and longitudinal holes for receiving cross bolts and longitudinal bolts respectively in its wall in a connection area where the blade is connected to the inner bearing ring or the outer bearing ring and wherein at least one longitudinal bolt is disposed within the blade wall in thickness direction of the wall.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for manufacturing a wind turbine blade, comprising the steps of pre-manufacturing a first blade member, positioning said pre-manufactured first blade member in a joining mold and bonding said first blade member with a second blade member using a vacuum assisted infusion process so as to form an integrated blade part.

Abstract: The invention relates to a wind turbine blade for a wind turbine, having a tip end area and a root end area, and a lightning protection system, said lightning protection system comprising at least one metal foil, wherein said metal foil extends continuously from the tip end area to the root end area of the blade and wherein the metal foil is arranged in proximity to the outer surface of the blade, so that the metal foil is adapted to function as a receptor of a stroke of lightning and as a down conductor.

Abstract: The invention relates to a wind turbine, comprising a tower, a nacelle, at least one blade with a tip end and a root end and monitoring means for monitoring the surface condition of the blade, wherein said monitoring means are located at the tower or at the nacelle and wherein said monitoring means are adapted to monitor the surface condition of at least substantially one entire side of the blade from its tip end to its root end.
