  • Patent number: 11754049
    Abstract: A platform for a wind turbine, the platform including a lift beam for carrying a load of a transport cabin of a tower lift of the wind turbine is provided. By the lift beam being part of the platform, an easier installation of the platform and the lift beam is possible. Furthermore, less components are needed. Another advantage is that the lift beam is installed at a smaller height of the tower where the tower has a larger diameter compared to a conventional lift beam. This increases the available space for lift cables hanging from the lift beam.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9523229
    Abstract: A hatch actuating arrangement for actuating a hatch of a hatch device, with the hatch device being adapted to be disposed or being disposed within a tower structure of a wind turbine. A hatch actuator being movably supported relative to the hatch such that a downward force upon the hatch actuator and a weight of the hatch actuator urges the hatch to rotate toward the open position; and wherein the hatch actuator is connected to and positioned proximate a side of a ladder above the hatch so that a user may open the hatch while upon the ladder above the hatch.
