Abstract

The present invention relates to a planetary gear transmisssion unit with planet shaft locking mechanism, provides a planetary gear transmission unit (20) comprising a planet carrier (14) which supports and locates circumferential spaced pairs of planet gears (12), and at least one planet shaft (13). The planetary gear transmission unit (20) furthermore comprises a planet shaft locking mechanism (18) between the at least one planet shaft (13) and the planet carrier (14) for preventing the at least one planet shaft (13) from rotating around its own axis. An advantage of a planetary gear transmission unit (20) according to embodiments of the invention is that rotation of the planet shafts (13) relative to his bore in the planet carrier (14) is prevented. The invention results in a free of wear contact between planet shaft (13) and planet carrier (14), thereby allowing all degrees of freedom of the planet shaft (13), without disturbing the load distribution between the planet gears (12) of a pair on one planet shaft (13).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a gear unit for a wind turbine. More specifically, the present invention relates to a planetary gear transmission unit with a planetary shaft locking mechanism, a gearbox comprising such a planetary gear transmission unit and a wind turbine comprising such a gearbox. Background technique [0002] A gearbox for a wind turbine may comprise at least one planetary gear unit comprising a planet carrier, planet gears, a sun gear and a ring gear. Figure 1a with Figure 1b A planetary gear unit 10 according to the prior art is shown schematically. The planetary gear transmission unit 10 includes a housing 1 in which a plurality of planetary gears 2 , planetary shafts 3 and planetary carriers 4 are arranged. The planetary gear unit 10 also includes a ring gear 5 and a sun gear 6 . The planet carrier 4 is connected to the rotor hub (not shown) of the wind turbine and is rotatably supported relative to the casing 1 by bearings 7 (see ...
