Abstract[English]
A platform for an internal shaft of a wind turbine tower, the platform having at least one tower wall connector comprising a first member and a second member, wherein one of the first member and the second member is connected to the platform and wherein the other of the first member and the second member is adapted for connection to a wall of a wind turbine tower. The first member and the second member are oriented and arranged to able to slide with respect to one another, wherein the first member includes an opening, and wherein the second member includes a projection that extends through the opening. A benefit of the invention is that the configuration of the first and second members permits the platform to move slightly relative to the tower wall which means that the connector serves to accommodate dynamic deformation, or 'ovalisation' of the tower wall, in use.[French]
L'invention concerne une plateforme pour un arbre interne d'une tour d'éolienne ; ladite plateforme comprend au moins un connecteur de paroi de tour comportant un premier élément et un second élément ; l'un du premier élément et du second élément est relié à la plateforme et l'autre du premier élément et du second élément est conçu pour être relié à une paroi d'une tour d'éolienne. Le premier élément et le second élément sont orientés et agencés pour pouvoir coulisser l'un par rapport à l'autre, le premier élément comprenant une ouverture, et le second élément comprenant une saillie qui s'étend à travers l'ouverture. Un avantage de l'invention est que la configuration des premier et second éléments permet à la plateforme de se déplacer légèrement par rapport à la paroi de la tour, ce qui signifie que le connecteur sert à recevoir une déformation dynamique, ou 'ovalisation' de la paroi de la tour, lors de l'utilisation.
