Blade transportation
First Claim
1. Blade transportation, using various supports that border the blade at different points of the same that allow for it to be handled from the place of manufacture to the means of transportation where they are fastened, allowing for movement between the fastening supports and the means of transportation, characterized in that it includes a root support frame 50 and an intermediate support frame 60, both supports with a quadrangular frame and inner auxiliary elements, and the distance between the supports equal to the length of the carrier vehicle, where:
- the root support frame 50 is supported and fastened on a ball joint platform 240 with wheels 230 at both ends and a central ball joint 220 that connects the ball joint platform 240 and the carrier vehicle andthe intermediate support 60 is placed on an X-shaped support 270 crossed by a wide flange beam actuated bar 280 that extends from one vehicle to the adjacent vehicle, the support of the intermediate support frame 270 rests on a cross section rail 300 inside of which there are rolling elements 310 in continuous contact with a wide flange 281 shaped like a double T sitting on a plate 320, the actuated bar 280 is joined to the support 270 at one of its ends and rests on an actuator stand 290 on the other end.

Abstract
Transportation tooling of the type that borders the blade at its root and at an intermediate point. This tooling is used in combination with platforms placed on the transportation elements and said platforms can move transversely and turn or rotate with respect to the means of transportation without affecting blade integrity. A method for blade transportation with the point of one blade facing the point of the adjacent blade so as to use the minimum space on the means of transportation. The rail tooling takes into account the maximum corner radius that the train will encounter while absorbing the bending and torsion stress acting on the blades.

- 6. A method for blade transportation characterized by placing a support frame 50 that clamps the root joint 20, placing another support frame 60 at the intermediate point of the blade 30, hoisting the blade 10 and depositing it on a rail car 250 without sides or covering so that the root support frame 50 is placed at one end of the rail car 250, the intermediate support frame 60 is fastened on the other end of the rail car 250 and connects with the adjacent rail car 251 by means of an actuated bar 280 that rests on an actuator stand 290, and the blade point 40 hangs in the air at the middle of the adjacent rail car 251.
