Abstract[English]
A main nacelle unit (22) for forming a nacelle (14) of a wind turbine (10) includes a main housing (28) having an outer wall (30a, 30b) and containing a base frame (52) configured to be attached to a tower (12) of the wind turbine (10). The main nacelle unit (22) also includes at least one support frame (56) configured to support a wind turbine component (54) external to the main housing (28). A portion of the support frame (56) is attached to the base frame (52) and movable between a stored position and a deployed position. In the stored position, the portion of the support frame (56) is configured to be positioned within the confines of the main housing (28), and in the deployed position, the portion of the support frame (56) is configured to extend through the main housing outer wall (30a, 30b) to support the wind turbine component (54) external to the main housing (28). A method of assembling a wind turbine using the support assembly is also disclosed.[French]
L'invention concerne une unité de nacelle principale (22) destinée à former une nacelle (14) d'une éolienne (10). Ladite unité comprend un carter principal (28) ayant une paroi externe (30a, 30b) et contenant un cadre de base (52) conçu pour être fixé à une tour (12) de l'éolienne (10). L'unité de nacelle principale (22) comprend également au moins un cadre de support (56) conçu pour supporter un composant d'éolienne (54) externe au carter principal (28). Une partie du cadre de support (56) est fixée au cadre de base et est mobile entre une position rangée et une position déployée. Dans la position rangée, la partie du cadre de support (56) est conçue pour être positionnée à l'intérieur des limites du carter principal (28), et dans la position déployée, la partie du cadre de support (56) est conçue pour s'étendre à travers la paroi externe de carter principal (30a, 30b) afin de supporter le composant d'éolienne (54) à l'extérieur du carter principal (28). L'invention concerne également un procédé d'assemblage d'une éolienne à l'aide de l'ensemble de support.
