A device for driving a first part of a wind turbine with respect to a second part of the wind turbine includes a driving element for engagement with the first part. The device also includes a driving unit including a housing to be fixedly connected to the second part, a motive generation means for generating motion of the motive element, and a motion transferring means for transferring the motion of the motive element to the driving element; and at least one slip coupling arranged between at least one of the motive element of the driving unit and the motion transferring means, the motion transferring means and the driving element, and within the motion transferring means, wherein the slip coupling is adjusted to slip if a torque acting on the slip coupling due to a movement force acting on the driving element exceeds a predetermined maximum torque. |
