Mounting arrangement for a wind turbine

Abstract

A mounting arrangement for a wind turbine for supporting a drive train on a tower of the wind turbine is provided. The mounting arrangement includes a bedplate that is mounted on the tower. The mounting arrangement further includes a support housing and a coupling device. The support housing accommodates and supports the drive train. The coupling device includes a coupling element for converting a torsional moment about a torsional moment axis, which is applied by the drive train to the support housing, into a supporting force acting in a supporting direction. The coupling device further includes a bearing element for introducing the supporting force from the coupling element into the bedplate. The coupling device is configured to allow displacements of the support housing relative to the bedplate in a transverse direction perpendicular to the torsional moment axis and to the supporting direction.
