Publication number: 20230044395Abstract: A wind turbine includes a hub, at least one blade and at least one pitch bearing to connect the at least one blade to the hub. The at least one pitch bearing has at least an inner ring and an outer ring, and at least a rolling race. The wind turbine further includes at least a tensioning system configured to exert a radial compression force to at least a part of the outer ring of the at least one pitch bearing, thus increasing the resultant stiffness of the at least one pitch bearing.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 18, 2022Publication date: February 9, 2023Inventors: Javier Pascual Resano, Jose Luis Aristegui Lantero, Teresa Arlaban Gabeiras, Jose Miguel Garcia Sayes, Miguel Nunez Polo

Publication number: 20110053793Abstract: Methods for identifying strains of bacteria, particularly methods for serotyping Streptococcus pneumoniae in a sample, methods for detecting and/or classifying S. pneumoniae infection by serotype, array devices and kits for use in such methods are disclosed. Array devices comprise a set of capture antibodies immobilised on a substrate at pre-determined array positions, wherein the set of capture antibodies comprises serotype-distinguishing antibodies which differ in their binding specificity for different S. pneumoniae serotypes. Serotyping methods may employ whole cell detection utilising one or more detectable labels, including in situ labelling of array-bound cells.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 19, 2008Publication date: March 3, 2011Inventors: Alberto Monasterio, Javier Pascual, Amaia Toro, Antonio Martínez, Laureno Simón, Jose Maria Marimón, Emilio Perez-Trallero
