ROTOR BLADE WITH A SEGMENTED SUPPORTING STRUCTURE AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE ROTOR BLADE
First Claim
1. A rotor blade with a supporting structure, whereinthe rotor blade comprises a rotor blade base section and a rotor blade tip section;
- the rotor blade comprises a rotor blade longitudinal direction, wherein the rotor blade longitudinal direction extends from the rotor blade base section to the rotor blade tip section;
the supporting structure comprises a first supporting segment for supporting the rotor blade base section and at least a second supporting segment for supporting the rotor blade tip section;
the supporting structure comprises the first supporting segment and the second supporting segment along the rotor blade longitudinal direction;
the first supporting segment is joined to the second supporting segment in a supporting structure transition section, wherein the supporting structure transition section is located in between the rotor blade base section and the rotor blade tip section; and
the first supporting segment and/or the second supporting segment comprises a fibre material.

Abstract
A rotor blade with a supporting structure, wherein the rotor blade has a rotor blade base section and a rotor blade tip section, is provided. The supporting structure includes a first supporting segment for supporting the rotor blade base section and at least a second supporting segment for supporting the rotor blade tip section. Furthermore, the supporting structure includes the first supporting segment and the second supporting segment along the rotor blade longitudinal direction. The first supporting segment is joined to the second supporting segment in a supporting structure transition section, wherein the supporting structure transition section is located in between the rotor blade base section and the rotor blade tip section. Finally, the first supporting segment and/or the second supporting segment include a fibre material. A method for manufacturing the rotor blade is also provided.
