MUMBAI, India, July 31 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202617061399 A) filed by Flender Gmbh on May 14, 2026, for Bell Housing For Fastening A Wind Gearbox In A Wind Turbine.
Inventors include Klein, Andreas; Hessling, Pascal; and Hambrecht, Ralf.
The application for the patent was published on July 24, 2026, under issue no. 30/2026.
Abstract: The invention relates to a bell housing (26) for fastening a wind gearbox (18) in a wind turbine (10), with a first fastening region (30) for fastening to a gearbox housing of the wind gearbox (18) and a second fastening region (32), axially spaced from the first fastening region (30) by an annular body (28), for fastening to a nacelle housing of the wind turbine (10) and/or to a main shaft bearing supporting a wind rotor shaft (16) of a wind rotor (12) of the wind turbine (12), wherein the annular body (28) has at least two differently designed recesses (34) for damping structure-borne sound. As a result of the asymmetry achieved in the bell housing itself (26) as a result of the differently designed recesses (34), noise emissions can be reduced in a large number of differently designed wind turbines (10).
