Abstract
A bearing arrangement of a rotor for a wind power plant. The bearing arrangement includes a rotor hub with at least one rotor blade, and a rolling bearing, by which the rotor hub is mounted in a gondola of the wind power plant so as to be rotatable relative to a machine support. The rolling bearing has an external ring and an internal ring, between which rolling elements are arranged. In order to make it easier to mount and dismount the bearing arrangement, the rolling bearing is coaxially disposed in a cylindrical opening of the rotor hub, which is externally open in an axial direction, and the external ring of the rolling bearing is connected to the rotor hub in a rotationally fixed and releasable manner.
