Wind turbine, rotor system, and method for using a wind turbine

A wind turbine may include a rotor hub, a blade bearing, a rotor blade, and a conical rotor-hub extension disposed between the rotor hub and the blade bearing. The conical rotor-hub extension may have a first diameter on a first side that is directed toward the blade bearing and a second diameter on...

Zusammenfassung:A wind turbine may include a rotor hub, a blade bearing, a rotor blade, and a conical rotor-hub extension disposed between the rotor hub and the blade bearing. The conical rotor-hub extension may have a first diameter on a first side that is directed toward the blade bearing and a second diameter on a second side that is directed toward the rotor hub. The first diameter may be greater than the second diameter, and the rotor blade may be connected to the blade bearing directly or indirectly. The blade bearing may comprise a first blade-bearing ring and a second blade-bearing ring, with the first blade-bearing ring being connected to the conical rotor-hub extension in a form-fitting manner, in a form- and force-fitting manner, or in a form configured as part of the conical rotor-hub extension.
