Abstract: The application describes an apparatus for and a method of mounting wind turbine blades on a wind turbine tower. A number of guide rods 94 are provided in the vicinity of the blade root and hub for connection to corresponding socket sections 96. The guide rods 94 and socket sections 96 are provided on respective ones of a wind turbine blade and a wind turbine hub to facilitate connection of one to the other. The guide rods 94 and the sockets 96 may be provide on the same or on different ones of the blade or hub. The guide rods and sockets allow the blade to be positioned at the hub in the correct rotational orientation to facilitate connection of the necessary fasteners.

Abstract: The invention provides a bearing for attaching a wind turbine blade to a wind turbine hub, the bearing comprising a stationary ring, a movable ring which can rotate relative to the stationary ring, a grease lubrication structure, and a canister for collecting grease. The grease lubrication structure forms an outlet for releasing grease from a space between the stationary ring and the movable ring and the canister comprises an inner space with at least one inlet in releasable fluid communication with the outlet. The outlet and the inlet comprise cooperating coupling elements adapted for releasable snap-connection of the outlet to the inlet. Due to the snap-connection, the canister is easily removed and replaced in connection with maintenance of the wind turbine even though the space in the hub is typically very limited.

Abstract: A wind turbine (1) comprising a nacelle, a hub (4), a rotating shaft (14) arranged to be connected to a generator (12) in order to transfer rotational movement to the generator (12), and a gear arrangement (7). The gear arrangement (7) comprises a number of pulleys (8, 9, 11) and a number of belts (15, 16) interconnecting the pulleys (8, 9, 11) in order to transfer rotational movements between the pulleys (8, 9, 11), thereby transferring rotational movements from the hub (4) to the rotating shaft (14). The hub (4) is arranged between the gear arrangement (7) and the nacelle in order to allow easy replacement of the belts (15, 16) of the gear arrangement (7).
