Abstract
An aerogenerator blade assembly has a blade with a first side and a second side an insert member positioned therein and therebetween. The insert member has a first surface in toothed engagement with a toothed surface on an inner surface of the first side of the blade, The blade has a first sector and a second sector affixed to the insert member. A first positioning rod is affixed to the first and second sides of the first sector of the blade and with the insert member. A second positioning rod is affixed to the first and second sides of the second sector of the blade and with the insert member.
Claims3
An apparatus comprising:
- an aerogenerator blade having a first side and a second side with a space defined therebetween, said first side having a first hole and a second hole formed therethrough in spaced relation to each other, said second side having a first hole and a second hole formed therethrough in spaced relation to each other, said first side having a toothed surface on an inner surface thereof;
- an insert member positioned in said space between said first side and said second side of said aerogenerator blade, said insert member having a first surface having a toothed area meshed with said toothed surface a said first side of said aerogenerator blade, said insert member having a second surface positioned against an inner surface of said second side of said aerogenerator blade, said insert member having a cross-member extending between said first and second surfaces thereof, at least one of said first and second surfaces of said insert member having a first nut and a second nut embedded therein, said first and second nuts being axially aligned with said first and second holes of said first side and with said first and second holes of said second side of said aerogenerator blade;
- a first threaded rod threadedly received by said first nut, said first threaded rod having a first end in said first hole of said first side of said aerogenerator blade and a second end in said first hole of said second side of said aerogenerator blade;
- and
- a second threaded rod threadedly received by said second nut, said second threaded rod having a first and second rod having a first end in said second hole of said first side of said aerogenerator blade and a second end in said second hole of said second side of said aerogenerator blade.
