A torque transmitting gear includes a steel toothed annular flange having gear teeth defined on a periphery of the steel toothed annular flange. A steel hub is coaxially aligned with the steel toothed annular flange. A web is formed from a web material having a density less than or equal to 3.0 grams per cubic centimeter. The web is fixedly attached to the toothed annular flange and to the hub for rotation together with the toothed annular flange and the hub. The gear is to operatively transmit a torque of at least 500 Newton Meters for at least 6 million revolutions of the gear. An overall mass of the gear is less than two-thirds of an overall mass of a same-sized all steel gear having a solid steel web with a solid steel web thickness at least one-third of a face width of the toothed annular flange.

A ring gear (100) for a planetary transmission includes a gear ring (110) formed with an internal gearing (120) on an inner circumferential surface of the gear ring (110). The gear ring (110) also includes a radially projecting and unilaterally axially overhung flange (130) on an outer circumferential surface of the gear ring (110). The flange (130) is formed with a circumferential collar (131) and a collar overhang (132). The collar overhang (132) has a crown gearing (140). The crown gearing (140) is continuous and axially extends through the collar (131).

A method for aligning toothing in an assembly of two half-ring gears is provided: an angular positioning pin is provided which is to be received in respective holes of the half-ring gears; the holes are drilled on the first half-ring gear such that the first hole has a first cross-section that is smaller than the final cross-section thereof; the angles between the teeth are compared between the two half-ring gears, and an angular difference between said angles of the half-ring gears is deduced therefrom; the first hole is redrilled to the final cross-section, while the centre of the hole is angularly shifted by the value of the angular difference; the pin is engaged in the holes, and the half-ring gears are then assembled using an interference fit.

The present invention provides an inner meshing transmission mechanism, which comprises an outer wheel, the outer wheel being provided with a first number of circular arc teeth on its inner edge, and said first number of circular arc teeth being arranged around the inner edge of the outer wheel; an inner wheel, the inner wheel being provided with a second number of teeth on its outer rim, said second number of teeth being arranged around the outer rim of the inner wheel, wherein m>n; an eccentric rotation device configured to enable said inner wheel to be eccentrically placed inside of outer wheel; wherein one of said outer wheel, said inner wheel and said eccentric rotation device is connected to an input power, while another one of them being connected to an output device so that power is transmitted through engagement between said outer wheel and said inner wheel; and wherein the toothed profile of said inner wheel is designed such that at any time when said inner wheel is engaging with said outer wheel for transmission, only a portion of said second number of teeth engage with said first number of circular arc teeth, while the rest of said second number of teeth are separate from said first number of arc teeth.

A rotary joint of a wind turbine and toothing for a rotary joint is provided to reduce the production cost for a rotary joint and to enable a stiffening of the rotary joint. An inner ring or outer ring of a rotary joint (bearing) is not completely bored before the milling of the teeth. The material above the teeth is completely retained as a circumferential residual material ring in the blank of the inner ring or the outer ring. The individual teeth are milled by the milling tool only until the required tooth height is reached. The residual material above the teeth is completely retained circumferentially. It reinforces and stiffens the inner ring or the outer ring of the rotary joint. The individual teeth are stabilized at the end face by the residual material above the teeth at the transition to the solid material.

The invention relates to a powertrain system (12) for driving at least one wheel of a vehicle, comprising: a motor (5) having an output shaft (6); a transmission system between the motor (5) and a drive shaft (4) connected to said wheel, the transmission system comprising two epicyclic gear trains (100, 200) each including the following components: a ring, a sun, a planet carrier and planet gears, wherein: a first epicyclic gear train (100) has a first axis (A100), a component forming a first input component (101) connected to the motor output shaft (6), and a component forming a first output component (102); a second epicyclic gear train (200) has a second axis (A200) parallel to the first axis (A100), a component forming a second input component (201, 205) meshing with the first output component (102), and a component forming a second output component (203) configured to be connected to the drive shaft (4).

A decoupling ring suitable for a planetary gear is disclosed. A decoupling ring includes an annular elastomeric base body and elastomeric formations. In embodiments, the elastomeric formations are uniformly spaced apart from one another, project in the radial direction from the base body, and run parallel to a central longitudinal axis passing centrally through the decoupling ring. With embodiments of the decoupling ring it is possible for the decoupling ring to be arranged on the circumferential side of a ring gear of a planetary gear.
