Transition body between tower sections of wind turbine, and tower of wind turbine comprising transition body

What is represented and described is a transition body (6, 6') for arranging between an upper tower section (5) and a lower tower section (4) of a tower (1) for a wind turbine (2), with a substantially annular upper attachment flange for connecting the transition body (6) to an upper tower section (5) and with at least three substantially annular lower attachment flanges in each case for connecting to a corner leg (3) of a lower tower section (4), wherein the transition body (6, 6') has a plurality of segments (16, 16') arranged around a central tower axis, wherein the number of the segments (16, 16') corresponds to the number of the corner legs (3), wherein the upper sections of the segments (16, 16') form, on the outer side of the transition body (6, 6'), an annularly encircling connection shell (17) which bears the upper attachment flange, and wherein the lower sections of the segments (16, 16') in each case form annularly encircling segment shells (19) which bear a lower attachment flange.
