Abstract: A wind turbine is provided including: a pressure supply system for providing a pressurized fluid for operating an aerodynamic device on a blade between a first protruded configuration and a second retracted configuration, the pressure supply system including a pressure line and a suction line and at least one distribution valve for connecting the pressure line and the suction line to the aerodynamic device. The distribution valve includes: a port connected with the aerodynamic device for sending the pressurized fluid to the aerodynamic device and receiving the pressurized fluid from the aerodynamic device, a first cavity connected with the pressure line and a second cavity connected with the suction line, the first cavity and the second cavity being connectable to the port, a distribution element having a passage connected to the first and second cavity and the port.

Abstract: Wind turbine having a hollow, walkable generator shaft of a generator assembly and a hollow hub attached to the generator shaft and having at least two blades attached to it, wherein the hub is enterable from the generator shaft and the wind turbine is stoppable in at least two predetermined maintenance positions of the blades, wherein the wind turbine further comprises a safety arrangement, in which a rotatably supported safety element having a door is mounted covering the opening leading from the generator shaft into the hub, wherein a locking arrangement for fixing the safety element in an entering position, in which the door is vertically oriented, is provided.

Abstract: A nacelle for a wind turbine and a method for erecting a wind turbine are disclosed. The nacelle comprises a main unit arranged to be connected to a wind turbine tower, via a yawing arrangement, and at least one side unit mounted along a side of the main unit in such a manner that direct access is allowed between the main unit and the side unit(s), each side unit accommodating at least one wind turbine component, and at least one side unit being capable of carrying the wind turbine component(s) accommodated therein. The main unit and at least one of the side unit(s) are distributed side by side along a substantially horizontal direction which is substantially transverse to a rotational axis of a rotor of the wind turbine. A sufficient interior space of the nacelle is obtained while allowing the nacelle to be transported due to the modular construction. The weight of the wind turbine components is arranged close to the tower due to the transversal arrangement of the side unit(s) relative to the main unit.
