Zusammenfassung:Wind turbine (1) comprising a hub (10) carrying one or more blades, a generator (60), and a shaft (30) operatively coupled to the hub (10) through a first coupling (40), wherein in operation, the rotor (62) of the generator (60) is directly driven by the shaft (30), and wherein the hub (10) is rotatably mounted on a frame (20), the shaft (30) is mounted at least partially internally in said frame (20), and wherein the coupling (40) between the shaft (30) and the hub (10) is adapted to transmit the torque about the hub's (10) rotational axis from said hub (10) to said shaft (30) while substantially limiting the transmission of other loads, and wherein the generator (60) is arranged in such a way that the torque about the shaft's (30) rotational axis is transmitted from the shaft (30) to the rotor (62) of the generator (60) while substantially limiting the transmission of other loads from the shaft (30) to the generator (60).
