Abstract
A generator for a wind turbine is proposed. The generator has a stator, a rotor having a rotor housing surrounding the stator, and a main bearing to support the rotor housing such that the rotor housing is rotatable about an axis of rotation. The stator has a plurality of cylindrical elements extending in parallel with the axis of rotation, and the rotor has a front element having a plurality of holes at positions alignable with the cylindrical elements, such that the rotor is fixable to the stator by inserting a fastening member through a cylindrical element and a hole aligned with the cylindrical element.
