Abstract
A rotor blade, a wind turbine and a method for installing and producing a rotor blade. In particular, a rotor blade for a wind turbine having a longitudinal direction, a transverse direction, a thickness, and a pressure side and a suction side opposite the pressure side, comprising a front pressure-side spar cap and/or a rear pressure-side spar cap, a front suction-side spar cap and/or a rear suction-side spar cap, a load introduction device, which is arranged between at least one of the pressure-side spar caps and at least one of the suction-side spar caps, wherein the load introduction device has a load coupling device, which is arranged and designed so as to receive a lifting device passed through a lifting opening, a lifting opening is arranged on the pressure side and/or the suction side, and the lifting opening is arranged between the front pressure-side spar cap and the rear pressure-side spar cap in the transverse direction and/or between the front suction-side spar cap and the rear suction-side spar cap in the transverse direction.
