WIND TURBINE TOWER INSTALLATION APPARATUS, WIND TURBINE SUPPORT TOWER AND METHOD
A wind turbine tower, wind turbine tower installation apparatus and methods of erecting a wind turbine tower. The wind turbine tower installation apparatus has a frame having a guide for positioning the apparatus on an installed portion of a tower, a platform for supporting wind turbine components on the frame, and a mechanism for transversely positioning the supported wind turbine component in alignment with the tower. A lifting mechanism is provided for moving the apparatus longitudinally up and down the tower. The apparatus further has an adaptor frame defining a collar for receiving and aligning the free end of the installed portion of the tower and the adjacent end of the subsequent tower section. The wind turbine support tower has a mating interface having complimentary sleeve portions one of which has a radially displaceable locking ring for engaging a radially extending feature of the other sleeve portion.
