Gearbox for a planetary gear
A gearbox for a planetary gear having a hollow-cylindrical housing body having a first internal gear, and a bearing flange engaging at least in sections coaxially in the housing body, so that an overlap area is formed, wherein the housing body and the bearing flange are firmly bonded to each other in the overlap area by laser irradiation welding. The bearing flange has a second internal gear in the overlap area. The gearbox relates to a planetary gear and a motor/transmission combination having such a gearbox and a production method thereof.
1. A gearbox for a planetary gear, the gearbox comprising:
a hollow-cylindrical housing body comprising a first internal gear, a circumferential outer surface of the housing body forming an outermost surface of the gearbox, and
a bearing flange comprising a second internal gear, the bearing flange coaxially engaging an end section of the housing body, so that an overlap area is formed;
wherein a laser irradiation weld bonds the housing body and the bearing flange to each other in the overlap area; and
wherein the second internal gear is disposed in the overlap area.
2. The gearbox according to claim 1 ,
wherein the housing body comprises a housing body bearing plate,
wherein the bearing flange comprises a bearing flange bearing plate, and
wherein the housing body bearing plate and the bearing flange bearing plate axially limit an interior space of the gearbox.
3. The gearbox according to claim 2 , further comprising:
a shaft bearing;
at least one bearing receptacle for receiving the shaft bearing, the bearing receptacle being formed concentrically in at least one of the bearing plates.
4. The gearbox according claim 2 ,
wherein the housing body and the housing body bearing plate are formed integrally, and
wherein the bearing flange and the bearing flange bearing plate are formed integrally.
5. The gearbox according to claim 1 , wherein the housing body and the bearing flange are pressure bonded in the overlap area.
6. The gearbox according to claim 1 , wherein the first internal gear abuts against the second internal gear.
7. The gearbox according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a radially outwardly extending annular web on the bearing flange,
wherein the annular web has a circumferential outer surface which is flush with the circumferential outer surface of the housing body.
8. The gearbox according to claim 7 , further comprising:
an axially parallel projection in the housing body, and
wherein the annular web has at least one axially parallel recess which engages in a form-fit manner with the axially parallel projection in the housing body.
9. The gearbox according to claim 8 , wherein the axially parallel projection and the axially parallel recess are formed to be complementarily trapezoidal.
10. The gearbox according to claim 1 , wherein the first internal gear and the second internal gear have gear geometries different from each other.
11. The gearbox according to claim 1 ,
wherein the first internal gear is a spur ring gear and the second internal gear is a helical ring gear.
12. A planetary gear, comprising:
a gearbox according to claim 1 ,
at least one first planet gear meshing with a first sun gear and with the first internal gear, and
at least one second planet gear meshing with a second sun gear and with the second internal gear.
13. A motor/transmission combination, comprising:
a planetary gear according to claim 12 , and
a motor housing,
wherein the motor housing coaxially surrounds a motor-side connecting section of the bearing flange, and
wherein the motor housing is connected to the connecting section, in a torsion-proof manner.
14. The motor/transmission combination according to claim 13 , further comprising:
a radially inwardly deformable crimp nose of the motor housing,
wherein the connecting section has at least one crimp receptacle for mating with the radially inwardly deformable crimp nose.
