Also disclosed is a planet carrier for such a planetary gear, including an insert for removing torque from the carrier body, which insert is connected to the first disk-shaped body. The first disk-shaped body forms a first free planet carrier face on which a number of reinforcing ribs are arranged.

A composite hybrid gear assembly includes a gear hub formed from a composite material and a gear head assembly. The gear hub includes a shaft region having an axially symmetrical external profile and a hub web region having a flared profile extending from the shaft region. The gear head assembly includes a head web region and a teeth region where the gear head assembly is fixed to the gear hub. Additionally, the composite hybrid gear assembly includes a first sleeve fixed to an external surface of the shaft region. An associated method of making a composite hybrid gear assembly is also provided.

The present invention relates to a planetary wheel (10) for a planetary gear (14) with a planetary wheel bore (28) which runs coaxially or parallel to the planetary wheel axis of rotation (APR) and which at least partially runs through the planetary wheel axis (22). The invention also relates to a planetary carrier (44) for such a planetary wheel (10), comprising a carrier body (46) with a first disk-shaped body (48) which has at least one first bearing recess (60), which has at least one circumferentially extending first catching projection (64), and with a second disk-shaped body (50) having at least one second bearing recess (62), which has at least one circumferentially extending second catching projection (66).

A high torque sprocket includes a body defining an outer periphery and a hub section defining an inner surface for engaging a bushing. A continuous toothed structure is disposed on the outer periphery of the body, and a textile reinforcement embedded in the body adjacent the inner surface of the hub section. The body is formed of a castable polymer material. In some cases, one or two optional flanges are disposed on side(s) of the body immediately adjacent the continuous toothed structure, in some aspects, a textile reinforcement may be embedded in a surface of the flange(s) immediately adjacent the continuous toothed structure. In some aspects, the high torque sprocket further includes a textile reinforcement embedded in the continuous toothed structure outer surface, and the textile reinforcement is selected from nylon, cotton, aramid, PTFE, and mixtures thereof.

A bull gear is provided for a reciprocating pump. The bull gear includes a hub extending around an axis of rotation of the bull gear. The bull gear includes a rim having a plurality of helical gear teeth extending along a circumference of the rim. The rim extends a width along the axis of rotation from a first side portion to a second side portion that is opposite the first side portion. The bull gear includes a web connecting the hub to the rim. The web extends a radial length from the first side portion of the rim to the hub.
