Definitions

  • the invention relates to a tower crane with a tower of at least one tower element according to the preamble of claim 1. Furthermore, the invention relates to a method for assembling a wind turbine rotor blade.
  • the height of the tower can be increased by the use of additional tower elements.
  • tower cranes have a maximum freestanding hook height. If this is exceeded, the tower crane must be secured by a horizontal anchorage to the structures to be constructed. As a result, the maximum achievable hook height can be significantly increased.
  • a tower crane with such a building guy is already known from DE 20 2011 100 477 U.
  • Such tower cranes with a building guy are used for example for the construction of wind turbines.
  • the rotor blades When installing such wind turbines, the rotor blades must be guided by the crane during assembly. By default, the rotor blades are guided by ropes from the ground during assembly. The cable pull forces that can be applied by such a floor guide are very small, so that only very low wind speeds can be permitted with such an installation.
  • Object of the present invention is therefore to develop a generic tower crane such that long objects such as rotor blades can be performed during assembly at very high altitudes.
  • a tower crane has a tower of at least one tower element, in particular lattice piece, preferably with a building guy, which is anchored to at least one tie rod horizontal to a building and a vertically movable on the tower guide frame, wherein at least one positioning is adjustably attached to the guide frame ,
  • this positioning part which is adjustably mounted on the guide frame, the distance between the element to be guided, for example the rotor blade and the guide point, can be significantly reduced, so that the object to be mounted can be guided much more stably.
  • the guide frame can be tracked vertically in each case in the tower height. As a result, a guide can be done regardless of the space conditions on the ground. Furthermore, an assembly can be carried out at comparatively higher wind speeds. Preferred embodiments of the invention will become apparent from the subsequent claims to the main claim.
  • the guide frame can be moved vertically along at least one cable guide along the guide frame.
  • the at least one cable guide has a cable drum arranged on the tower and a deflection roller arranged on a climbing piece or on the guide piece.
  • a deflection roller arranged on a climbing piece or on the guide piece.
  • two cable guides for moving the guide frame are present, which can be adjustable via a Zileilwinde with two cable drums.
  • the guide frame is U-shaped according to an advantageous embodiment of the invention, so that it surrounds the tower on three sides.
  • the U-shaped guide frame is preferably angled at its open end to engage around the corner areas of the tower.
  • the guide frame in the corner regions of the tower rollers or plain bearings, over which it is supported during the vertical up and down movement relative to the tower. Since the weight of the guide frame is quite high due to its stable design, the guide frame can be divisible for assembly and transport purposes.
  • a winch is arranged on the guide frame.
  • two independently controllable ends for the independent adjustment of two positioning cables are provided.
  • telescoping struts can be arranged on the guide frame, which on the one hand serve to guide the positioning ropes and on the other hand as dampers. serve fer, if a contact of the leading object, such as the rotor blade and the struts should occur.
  • the guidance points provided on the guide frame for the positioning cables are rotatable about the tower.
  • suitable guides are provided on the guide frame.
  • the guide frame can additionally serve as passenger and / or goods lift.
  • the guide frame can additionally serve as passenger and / or goods lift.
  • two independent cable guides for vertical displacement of the guide frame are necessary here.
  • a balance weight is preferably provided, similar to that known from conventional elevator technology.
  • the invention comprises a method for mounting a wind turbine rotor blade according to one of claims 14 and 15.
  • FIG. 1 shows a tower crane according to the present invention during assembly of a wind turbine
  • FIG 2, 3 a detail of the tower crane according to Figure 1 in a slightly modified
  • FIG. 4 shows an alternative embodiment of the guide frame
  • Figure 5 a detailed view of a tower section of the tower crane according to the invention
  • Figure 6.7 two detailed representations of a part of a again alternative embodiment of a guide frame.
  • FIG. 1 shows a tower crane 10, which is connected to a wind turbine 14 to be created by means of a building guy 12 known per se.
  • the tower crane 10 is used to build the wind turbine.
  • a rotor blade 18 of the tower crane is received via a load cable 16 of the tower crane 10 in order to mount this on the hub 20 of the wind turbine.
  • the load cable 16 is connected in the illustrated embodiment with an adjustment unit 22, the winches for pitch-tilt angle adjustment of the recorded rotor blade 18 has.
  • the rotor blade 18 is connected via corresponding ropes 24 with a rotor blade gripper 26, by means of which the rotor blade 18 can be encompassed in a known manner.
  • the guide frame 30 is vertically movable in the double arrow direction a along the tower 11 of the tower crane.
  • the positioning cables 28 can be adjusted in length via corresponding winches 32.
  • the vertical adjustment of the guide frame 30 takes place in the illustrated embodiment via two cables 34, which can be moved by a drive 36.
  • the drive 36 is arranged in the illustrated embodiment in the bottom region of the tower crane 10.
  • the drive here consists of a two-way winch with two rope drums.
  • the ropes 34 are guided over deflection rollers 38, which are provided in a crane tower climbing unit 40.
  • FIG. 2 a slightly modified embodiment variant to FIG. 1 is shown.

  • this cable 34 runs over corresponding winches 42, which are arranged in the guide frame 30. By adjusting the winches 42, the cable 34 is extended or shortened, so that here the vertical movement of the guide frame 30 is completed.
  • Figure 3 shows a cross-sectional view of the guide frame 30, from which the arrangement relative to the tower 11 of the tower crane is clear.
  • the tower 11 is connected via a Bautechnikabschreib 12 with the wind turbine 14.
  • the guide frame 30 has a U-shape, as shown in Figure 3. However, at its open end, the U-shaped guide frame 30 is angled to encompass the corner areas of the tower, as illustrated by the position number 44. In the field of corner handles 13 of the tower 1 not shown in detail roller or plain bearings 46 are provided in the guide frame.
  • the roller or plain bearing guide can be designed to be pivotable towards the tower in order to simplify assembly.
