ABSTRACT:
The mast (2) of the wind turbine is formed by at least two segments (13, 15) articulated to one another so as to pivot between a straightened position and a folded position. The pivoting of the two segments (13, 15) is coordinated in such a way that they always form the same angle (a1) with the vertical, making it possible to maintain the centre of gravity of the wind turbine in vertical alignment with the lower segment (11). Consequently the wind turbine can be folded down in the case of high winds under optimum safety conditions and with reduced space occupied.
