Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2020/002160
Kind Code:
A8
Abstract:
The invention relates to a floating support structure (10) for a wind turbine (100) which is designed with a view to reducing outlay on manufacturing and materials for floating support structures for wind turbines, and is developed with a central main buoyancy body (12) and a plurality of secondary buoyancy bodies (14) arranged at the corners of a polygon around the main buoyancy body (12), wherein the secondary buoyancy bodies (14) are each connected to the main buoyancy body (12) by means of a strut (18) extending, particularly in a straight line, from the secondary buoyancy bodies (14) to the main buoyancy body (12), and wherein the secondary buoyancy bodies (14) are coupled to one another by means of a tension means (20), which connects adjacent secondary buoyancy bodies (14) to each other, in such a manner that the secondary buoyancy bodies (14) are tensioned against the main buoyancy body (12). The invention also relates to a wind turbine (100) having a floating support structure (10) of this kind.
