Abstract
A rotor shaft assembly for a torque-transmitting connection of a gearbox unit to a generator unit includes an output shaft for the gearbox unit, a rotor shaft for the generator unit, and a curved tooth coupling designed to connect the output shaft and the rotor shaft to one another The curved tooth coupling includes a releasably fastened supporting element designed to axially position the curved tooth coupling and including a mating face to support an axial force of the curved tooth coupling, with the mating face being designed to slide on a corresponding support face of the output shaft or of the rotor shaft when the output shaft is tilted relative to the rotor shaft.

A wind turbine, comprising:
- a nacelle;
- a multi-blade rotor rotatably disposed on the nacelle;
- a generator gearbox comprising a generator unit and a gearbox unit connected to the generator unit;
- a main shaft connecting the rotor in a torque-transmitting manner to the generator gearbox;
- an output shaft for the gearbox unit of the generator gearbox;
- a rotor shaft for the generator unit of the generator gearbox;
- and
- a curved tooth coupling designed to connect the output shaft and the rotor shaft to one another, said curved tooth coupling comprising at least one adjustable releasably fastened supporting element designed to adjust an axial position of the curved tooth coupling and including a mating face to support an axial force of the curved tooth coupling, with the mating face being designed to slide on a corresponding support face of the output shaft or of the rotor shaft when the output shaft is tilted relative to the rotor shaft.
