Abstract

A turbine power plant comprises power generation apparatuses divided a plurality of modules, a common base mounting thereon the power generation apparatuses and a supporting apparatus for supporting the common base, and is characterized by a construction of the common base, constructed so as to be commonly used with a part of a transportation vehicle and a frame of the power plant.

Claims

1. A turbine power plant comprising:

a common base for mounting thereon power generation apparatuses, said common base being constructed so as to be used as a part of a transportation vehicle and a support frame for installation of said power generation apparatuses;

a height-adjusting apparatus for supporting said common base and adjusting the height of said common base mounting thereon said power generation apparatuses; and

wherein said common base is provided with a lengthwise sliding mechanism for moving said power generation apparatuses mounted on said common base in a length direction of said common base.

3. A turbine power plant according to claim 1, wherein said height-adjusting apparatus forms a space for maintenance operation under said common base by raising said common base mounting thereon said power generation apparatuses.

4. A turbine power plant according to claim 1, wherein said height-adjusting apparatus for adjusting the height of said common base is constructed to be used as a jack for installation of said common base.

2. A turbine power plant comprising:

a common base for mounting thereon power generation apparatuses, said common base being constructed so as to be used as a part of a transportation vehicle and a support frame for installation of said power generation apparatuses;

a height-adjusting apparatus for supporting said common base and adjusting the height of said common base mounting thereon said power generation apparatuses; and

wherein said common base is provided with a width-wise sliding mechanism for moving said power generation apparatuses mounted on said common base in a width direction of said common base from a side position along the length direction of said common base.

5. A turbine power plant according to claim 2, wherein said height-adjusting apparatus forms a space for maintenance operation under said common base by raising said common base mounting thereon said power generation apparatuses.

6. A turbine power plant according to claim 2, wherein said height-adjusting apparatus for adjusting the height of said common base is constructed to be used as a jack for installation of said common base.
