Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A planetary gear unit ( 21 ) of a gearbox of a wind turbine comprising a sun gear ( 27 ), planet gears ( 25, 25′ ), a ring gear ( 24 ), a planet carrier ( 29 ) and an outer casing ( 31 ); the ring gear ( 24 ) being mounted on the outer casing ( 31 ); the planet carrier ( 29 ) comprising a bogie plate ( 35 ) where planet gears ( 25, 25′ ) are rotatably mounted on planet shafts ( 41 ); the planet carrier ( 29 ) comprising a main body ( 51 ) and a backplate ( 53 ) which can be joined/disjoined to the main body ( 51 ) for facilitating the assembly/disassembly of the planetary gear unit ( 21 ); the planet carrier ( 29 ) being rotatably mounted on said outer casing ( 31 ) by means of a first bearing ( 72 ) in contact with said main body ( 51 ) at the rotor side and by means of a second bearing ( 73 ) in contact with said backplate ( 53 ) at the generator side.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A planetary gear unit ( 21 ) of a gearbox of a wind turbine, the planetary gear unit ( 21 ) comprising only one central sun gear ( 27 ), at least one pair of planet gears ( 25 , 25 ′), a ring gear ( 24 ), a planet carrier ( 29 ), and an outer casing ( 31 ), the outer casing ( 31 ) being attached to a wind turbine nacelle, the ring gear ( 24 ) being mounted on the outer casing ( 31 ), the planet carrier ( 29 ) comprising a bogie plate ( 35 ), the bogie…
