[0048] When the wind turbine gearbox is running, the hollow outer ring 2 and the hollow tube 3 both rotate relative to the end cover assembly 1, and the direction of rotation is rotation around their own axis. The oil in the oil pool is easily leaked from the felt seal 5 under agitation.

[0054] Exemplarily, the end cap assembly 1 includes a transparent cover 11 and an oil baffle 12. Both a first hole segment and a second hole segment are formed in the transparent cover 11. The first hole segment serves as the second mounting opening. The hollow outer ring 2 is inserted into both the first and second mounting openings. The oil baffle 12 is mounted in the first mounting opening. The inner ring of the oil baffle 12 forms a third hole segment. The transparent cover 11, oil baffle 12, and hollow outer ring 2 enclose a first oil chamber 21.
