Lifting device for turbine generator unit of underwater power plant, has immersion component comprising gripping device that includes movable clamping elements for detachably securing turbine generator unit

摘要

The device has an immersion component (1) comprising a transverse centering device (9) and a gripping device (10). The transverse centering device laterally centers the immersion component relative to a turbine generator unit (2) by supporting at a supporting structure (4). The gripping device comprises movable clamping elements for detachably securing the turbine generator unit. The transverse centering device comprises movable enclosure elements arranged for enclosing a part of the supporting structure. An independent claim is also included for a method for lifting a turbine-generator unit of an underwater power plant from a supporting structure.
