Abstract: A wind turbine blade root having fully bonded insert bushings with internal threads for mounting bolts for releasable attachment to a hub of a wind turbine is manufactured by arrangement of a plurality of the insert bushings on a first layer of fibre mat arranged on a holder having a plurality of spaced recesses for accommodation of the insert bushings such that the bushings extend largely in a longitudinal direction of the blade accommodated in the spaced recesses. Subsequently, a number of additional layers of fibre mat are arranged on top of the bushings, and the fibre mat layers are consolidated.

Abstract: Method of manufacturing a blade root of a wind turbine blade and wind turbine blade having an aerodynamically designed blade portion and a blade root adapted for releasable attachment to a hub of a wind turbine, said blade root being of laminated construction and comprising a plurality of fully bonded bushings (4) extending largely in the longitudinal direction of the blade, which bushings (4) are provided with an internal thread (5) for mounting bolts for releasable attachment to the hub, wherein the bushings (4) comprise a first portion (6) and an extension portion (7) having gradually increased flexibility in the direction away from the first portion (6) to provide a light blade of high strength.

Abstract: The invention relates to a blade for use on a wind turbine and a method of assembling laminated profiles (3, 5) for a blade for a wind turbine. The development towards increasingly larger blades requires, that the technology of manufacture is reviewed and novel methods applied, in particular with regard to aspects regarding strength and weight. It is an object of the invention to provide a blade that can be manufactured more accurately and with large uniformity with regard to strength, from blade to blade, and which is lighter than prior art blades.
