Abstract[English]
An anchor cage (30) for a wind turbine foundation (26) includes an upper load distribution flange (32), a lower base flange (34), a plurality of anchor bolts (36) coupling the upper load distribution flange (32) and the lower base flange (34), and a floating coupler (48, 48', 48'') suspended on one anchor bolt of the plurality of anchor bolts (36). The floating coupler (48, 48', 48'') includes a first coupler plate (54), a second coupler plate (56), and a plurality of connecting members connecting the first coupler plate (54) and the second coupler plate (56). A first portion of one anchor bolt (36) extends between and is coupled to the upper load distribution flange (32) and a first coupler plate (54) and a second portion of one anchor bolt (36) extends between and is coupled to the second coupler plate (56) and the lower base flange (34). An area bounded by the first coupler plate (54) and the second coupler plate (56) defines a passage (50) through the at least one floating coupler (48, 48', 48'').[French]
Une cage d'ancrage (30) pour une fondation d'éolienne (26) comprend une bride de distribution de charge supérieure (32), une bride de base inférieure (34), une pluralité de boulons d'ancrage (36) reliant la bride de distribution de charge supérieure (32) et la bride de base inférieure (34), et un dispositif d'accouplement flottant (48, 48', 48'') suspendu sur un boulon d'ancrage de la pluralité de boulons d'ancrage (36). Le dispositif d'accouplement flottant (48, 48', 48'') comprend une première plaque (54), une seconde plaque (56), et une pluralité d'éléments de liaison reliant la première plaque (54) et la seconde plaque (56). Une première partie d'un boulon d'ancrage (36) s'étend entre la bride de distribution de charge supérieure (32) et une première plaque (54) du dispositif d'accouplement et est accouplée à celles-ci et une seconde partie d'un boulon d'ancrage (36) s'étend entre la seconde plaque (56) du dispositif d'accouplement et la bride de base inférieure (34) et est accouplée à celles-ci. Une zone délimitée par la première plaque (54) du dispositif d'accouplement et la seconde plaque (56) du dispositif d'accouplement définit un passage (50) à travers ledit au moins un dispositif d'accouplement flottant (48, 48', 48'').
