Abstract[English]
A transportation arrangement (40) for transporting at least one wind turbine blade (20) on water is disclosed. The transportation arrangement (40) includes a primary vessel (42), a secondary vessel (44) that is separate from the primary vessel (42), and a wind turbine blade (20) that extends between a first end (24) and an opposite second end (26). The first end (24) of the wind turbine blade (20) is configured to be supported on the primary vessel (42) and the second end (26) of the wind turbine blade (20) is configured to be supported on the secondary vessel (44) such that the secondary vessel (44) is operatively connected to the primary vessel (42) by the wind turbine blade (20) to transport the wind turbine blade (20) on water, and in particular about bends and curved sections of a waterway.[French]
L'invention concerne un agencement de transport (40) permettant de transporter au moins une pale d'éolienne (20) sur de l'eau. L'agencement de transport (40) comprend un récipient primaire (42), un récipient secondaire (44) qui est séparé du récipient primaire (42), et une pale d'éolienne (20) qui s'étend entre une première extrémité (24) et une seconde extrémité opposée (26). La première extrémité (24) de la pale d'éolienne (20) est conçue pour être supportée sur le récipient primaire (42) et la seconde extrémité (26) de la pale d'éolienne (20) est conçue pour être supportée sur le récipient secondaire (44) de telle sorte que le récipient secondaire (44) est relié de manière fonctionnelle au récipient primaire (42) par la pale d'éolienne (20) afin de transporter la pale d'éolienne (20) sur l'eau, et en particulier autour de virages et de sections incurvées d'une voie d'eau.
