WIND TURBINE TOWER SUSPENSION MEANS

摘要

A method of mounting elements in a wind turbine tower, whereby the elements are partly or completely attached to the wind turbine tower by means of magnetic attraction forces. Wind turbine suspension units may be attached to the wind turbine tower, preferably completely or partly to the inner wall by means of magnetic attraction forces, which present structure-weakening attachments to the tower or part of the tower.

1. A method of constructing a wind turbine, comprising:
assembling a tower by joining two or more tower sections together; mounting an interior component of a wind turbine tower to an inner surface of one of the tower sections by:
magnetically attaching a suspension unit to the inner surface, the suspension unit having a main body and a mechanically connectable member extending from the main body;positioning a fitting of the interior component onto the mechanically connectable member after magnetically attaching the suspension unit to the inner surface; andsecuring the fitting to the mechanically connectable member; and supporting a nacelle and rotor on the tower, wherein the suspension unit is attached to the inner surface by a permanent magnet material so that the interior component remains positioned within the tower after constructing the wind turbine.
