  • Patent number: 8866330
    Abstract: The invention relates to a tower for a wind turbine and to a cable guide therefor, wherein a nacelle for the wind turbine is arranged on the tower such that it can rotate by means of the azimuth bearing about a vertical axis which runs in the longitudinal direction of the tower. Current-conducting cables are routed in the tower of the wind turbine out of the nacelle from electrical components to the ground. The tower has at least two bundling devices which are suitable for joining the individual cables which run longitudinally in the tower together to form a cable bundle with the cables fixed with respect to one another. The bundling devices are attached to the cables between an upper and a lower area of the cable bundle. In this case, geometric configuration of the bundling device ensures that at least between three cables it is not below a specific minimum distance.

  • Publication number: 20130068496
    Abstract: The invention relates to a tower for a wind turbine and to a cable guide therefor, wherein a nacelle is arranged on the tower such that it can rotate by means of the azimuth bearing about a vertical axis which runs in the longitudinal direction of the tower. A guide device is arranged between a cable bundle and the tower, wherein the guiding device has means for supporting the lower area of the cable bundle in a radial direction, and for supporting with respect to the tower in a circumferential direction.
