The invention relates to a lade carrier, for windmill blades, in particular for offshore windmills, comprising a frame, where said frame comprises a number of modules each having a root receiving end and a tip receiving end for accommodating one windmill blade peculiar in, that said root receiving end comprises an annular root re ceiving pneumatic damp adapted to receive the root end of a windmill blade, that said annular root receiving pneumatic damp is arranged for establishing an open and a closed state, that said annular root receiving pneumatic damp comprises an actuator which is operated to change between the two states, and where said tip receiving end comprises a tip receiving pneumatic damp adapted to support part of a windmill blade edge and that said tip receiving pneumatic damp is arranged for establishing an open and a closed state, that said tip receiving pneumatic damp comprises an actuator which is operated to change between the two states, and that the blade carrier com prises pneumatic conduits connecting the pneumatic clamps with a pressure source and that said closed states provides a securing of the blade in the blade carrier whereas the open states makes it possible to insert or remove the blade. The invention also relates to a method of operating a blade carrier. |
