摘要 |
The present invention described an offshore gravity foundation (1) for mounting an upright construction such as a mast or components of an electricity generating wind farm such as a wind turbine generator, transformer or pole, comprising a lower section (2) having a wide base (6) configured to at least partly contact the sea bed, an upper section (3) which extends from the lower section (2), ending in an open flange (4) suitable for attachment to said wind turbine, which upper section is configured to extend above the level of the sea, which lower section (2) gradually narrows from the base (6) towards an interface (7) with the upper section (3), which base (6) is extended with a solid rim (5), whereby the rim (5) is disposed around the outside periphery of the base, configured to increase the surface of the foundation (1) contacting the sea bed and to receive solid ballast. |
