Abstract
A system for stabilizing the vertical motion of an object in a wind power generating tower comprises at least one static guide, and a guide component attached to the object, e.g., an elevator car, constrained to the proximity of the static guide. In addition, at least one further containment, e.g., a wirefix, coupled to the static guide is able to pass through the first containment as the object moves vertically in the tower. Moreover, the further containment is disposed to maintain the static guide in a fixed relationship to a mounting structure, and the further containment is disposed for in-situ attachment.
