Patent number: 11486368Abstract: A tool chain (10) is provided for performing a method of removing internal components such as a bearing cassette (64) from the interior of a generator (12) and/or a gearbox (14) of a wind turbine. The tool chain (10) includes a tube (30) that extends through the interior of the generator (12), at least one clamp element (36) that concentrically fixes the tool chain (10) in position on at least one output shaft (60, 62) of the gearbox (14), and a sliding tool (50) that moves along the tube (30) into and out of the generator to couple with and pull out internal components to be repaired or replaced. For example, the tool chain (10) can remove the bearing cassette (64) located adjacent the junction of the gearbox (14) and the generator (12) without necessitating disassembly of the gearbox (14) from the generator (12).Type: GrantFiled: July 17, 2019Date of Patent: November 1, 2022Assignee: Vestas Wind Systems A/SInventors: Joris Kofman, Niels Møller Madsen

Publication number: 20050178644Abstract: An integral volume control and switch assembly comprising a resilient conductive member serving for switching between a first and second switch state and a resilient tactile member serving for providing a user with a tactile feedback upon change of switch state. The resilient tactile member and the resilient conductive member are formed by separate members. Hereby the assembly can be further miniaturised without the resilient tactile member and the resilient conductive member being too small to handle in a manufacturing process. In addition, it is possible to adjust angular position of the rotatable member where switch function and tactile feedback occurs. Preferably the resilient tactile member and the resilient conductive member are spatially separated along a rotational axis of the rotatable member. The assembly according to the invention is suitable for hearing aids.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 13, 2004Publication date: August 18, 2005Inventor: Niels Moller
