Abstract

A rotor blade for a wind power installation with a longitudinal direction in which the rotor blade extends, at least one first rotor blade segment with a first end face, and at least one second rotor blade segment with a second end face, wherein the first rotor blade segment is coupled on the end face in the longitudinal direction to the second rotor blade segment, wherein the first and second rotor blade segments each comprise: a blade laminate with a plurality of laminate layers which are arranged stacked in a profile thickness direction, and arranged on the end face, a plurality of mounting elements for coupling the first rotor blade segment to the second rotor blade segment, wherein each of the mounting elements extends in the longitudinal direction and has two contact faces which are arranged transversely, in particular orthogonally to the longitudinal direction at a distance from one another which diminishes in non-linear fashion towards the end.
