Abstract[English]
The present disclosure relates to a blade guiding apparatus for facilitating connection between a wind turbine blade and a rotor hub. The blade guiding apparatus has a guide and a cushion which is carried by said guide. The cushion is provided for interfacing with a wind turbine blade or with a rotor hub to create an interference fit between the guide and the wind turbine blade or rotor hub. The provision of a cushion helps to absorb and/or dampen impacts which may be encountered during installation due to relative movement between the wind turbine blade and the rotor hub.[French]
La présente divulgation concerne un appareil de guidage de pale permettant de faciliter la liaison entre une pale d'éolienne et un moyeu de rotor. L'appareil de guidage de pale comporte un guide et un amortisseur qui est transporté par ledit guide. L'amortisseur est prévu pour assurer l'interface avec une pale d'éolienne ou avec un moyeu de rotor en vue de créer un ajustement serré entre le guide et la pale d'éolienne ou le moyeu de rotor. La fourniture d'un amortisseur aide à absorber et/ou à amortir les impacts qui peuvent être rencontrés lors de l'installation en raison d'un mouvement relatif entre la pale d'éolienne et le moyeu de rotor.
