Wind turbine transmission
A wind turbine transmission includes a high-speed spur gear stage which includes a HSS spur gear and an HSS pinion meshing therewith on a HSS pinion shaft. The HSS spur gear is directly mounted in a transmission housing of the wind turbine transmission. A sun gear shaft of a transmission stage, which is mounted upstream of the high-speed spur gear stage, is directly coupled to the HSS spur gear.
1. A wind turbine transmission, comprising:
a transmission housing having a rotor side and a generator side;
a carrier element connected to the generator side of the transmission housing and comprising a circumferential web projecting axially away from the generator side toward the rotor side;
a high-speed spur gear stage directly mounted in the transmission housing and comprising an HSS (High Speed Stage) spur gear having an outer circumference carrying a ring gear meshing with an HSS pinion shaft and an interior generator-side circumferential recess in which the web projects, and a bearing arranged between an inner circumference of the ring gear and the web, said HSS spur gear having a rotor-side hub configured to engage with a coupling connecting the HSS spur gear with an intermediate-stage (IMS) sun gear shaft arranged upstream of the high-speed spur gear stage.
2. The wind turbine transmission of claim 1 , wherein the HSS pinion shaft forms an output shaft of the wind turbine transmission.
3. The wind turbine transmission of claim 1 , wherein the HSS spur gear is mounted on one side of the transmission housing.
4. The wind turbine transmission of claim 1 , wherein the HSS spur gear is mounted in the transmission housing on a rotor side or on a generator side.
5. The wind turbine transmission of claim 1 , wherein the HSS spur gear is forged, welded or screwed from a plurality of elements or produced from a solid body by means of a cutting method.
6. A wind turbine transmission, comprising:
a transmission housing having a rotor side and a generator side;
a carrier element connected to the generator side of the transmission housing and comprising a circumferential web projecting axially away from the generator side toward the rotor side;
a high-speed spur gear stage directly mounted in the transmission housing and comprising an HSS (High Speed Stage) spur gear having a rotor-side hub and an outer circumference carrying a ring gear meshing with an HSS pinion shaft and an interior generator-side circumferential recess in which the web projects, and a bearing configured as a journal bearing and arranged between an inner circumference of the ring gear and the web, said rotor-side hub being configured to engage with a coupling connecting the HSS spur gear with an intermediate-stage (IMS) sun gear shaft arranged upstream of the high-speed spur gear stage.
7. The wind turbine transmission of claim 6 , wherein the HSS pinion shaft forms an output shaft of the wind turbine transmission.
8. The wind turbine transmission of claim 6 , wherein the HSS spur gear is mounted on one side of the transmission housing.
9. The wind turbine transmission of claim 6 , wherein the HSS spur gear is mounted in the transmission housing on a rotor side or on a generator side.
10. The wind turbine transmission of claim 6 , wherein the HSS spur gear is forged, welded or screwed from a plurality of elements or produced from a solid body by means of a cutting method.
