REPAIR METHOD FOR A GEARBOX ASSEMBLY OF A WIND TURBINE
A repair method for a gearbox assembly for a wind turbine is disclosed. The gearbox includes a gearbox housing having an upwind end and a downwind end, a gear assembly configured within the gearbox housing, at least one shaft configured with the gear assembly and extending from the gearbox housing to a generator of the wind turbine, and a sleeve assembly configured with the gearbox housing. Further, the sleeve assembly is removable so as to provide additional space in the gearbox housing during at least one of disassembly or assembly of the gearbox assembly such that the various components can be easily repaired and/or replaced.
Continuously variable transmission
A continuously variable transmission for a vehicle includes a drive clutch, a driven clutch operably coupled to the drive clutch, and a belt extending between the drive and driven clutches. The continuously variable transmission also includes an inner cover and an outer cover removably coupled to the inner cover. At least one of the inner and outer covers includes an air inlet for providing cooling air to the drive and driven clutches and the belt.
CUTTING APPARATUS USING A CLEARING ARRANGEMENT
A cutting unit for use with a cutting apparatus suitable for creating tunnels or subterranean roadways and the like, includes a cutting arm configured for pivotal movement around at least one pivot axis and a cutting head mounted to the cutting arm. The cutting head includes at least one rotatable cutting element for detaching material from a rock face, and a clearing arrangement mounted to the cutting arm. The clearing arrangement has a clearing blade for pushing detached rock material onto a loading table of the cutting apparatus, the clearing blade being guided by a first guiding mechanism to allow a free movement of the clearing blade in a first direction.
Tractor with improved clutch housing
There is provided a tractor with an improved clutch housing structure, which includes a hydro-static transmission (HST) positioned between a clutch and a secondary transmission, to transmit power. The tractor comprises: a clutch housing with the clutch and the HST positioned inside; a partition to separate the clutch from the HST formed inside the clutch housing; and a heat-radiating opening formed in the partition.
CUTTING APPARATUS
A cutting apparatus suitable for creating tunnels and subterranean roadways includes independently pivoting supports that each carry a respective independently pivoting arm and a rotatable cutting head. Each cutting head via the supports and arms, is configured to slew laterally outward in a sideways direction and to pivot in a vertical upward and downward direction. The supports and arms are mounted on a linear moving sled carried by a main frame.
PLANETARY GEAR WITH IMPROVED PLANET GEAR CARRIER SUPPORT
A planetary gear includes a housing, a first gear stage having a first planet gear carrier, a bearing disposed on a wall of the housing, and a first shaft connected to the first planet gear carrier for torque transmission and supported in the bearing. The planetary gear further includes a second gear stage having a second planet gear carrier connected to a sun gear shaft of the first gear stage for torque transmission. The second planet gear carrier is supported in at least one of two ways, a first way in which the second planet gear carrier is supported in an axially inner bearing arranged on the first planet gear carrier, a second way in which the second planet gear carrier is supported in an axially outer bearing arranged in the wall of the housing.
Differential device and method of assembling the same
A differential device includes: a differential gear mechanism; and an integrated differential case housing the mechanism, the differential case including bearing bosses formed integrally on one and other side portions thereof and aligned on a same axis to be rotatably supported by a transmission case; a work window being provided in the differential case; sleeves rotatably supported by the bosses and connected to side gears of the mechanism liquid-tightly. The sleeves can be passed through an inside of the differential case from the window and fitted and inserted to inner peripheries of the bosses, falling-off prevention devices are provided between the sleeves and the bosses, and seal devices for preventing lubricating oil in the differential case from flowing out are provided between the side gears and the sleeves. Accordingly, when drive shafts are removed from the differential device, the oil in the transmission and differential cases does not flow out.
Side-by-side utility vehicle
A utility vehicle (2) comprises a plurality of ground engaging members (6, 8) and a frame (4) supported by the plurality of ground engaging members. The utility vehicle includes a front seating area (24) and a rear seating area (26). A rear cargo bed (20) is reconfigurable from a configuration where it is rearward of the rear seating area to a second configuration where it includes the rear seating area space. The vehicle includes a transmission (254) having a final drive portion (258) and a plurality of transmission shafts (672, 690, 702) housed in a common housing (650), the final drive portion being forward of an end of the plurality of transmission shafts. The vehicle also includes a front suspension (72) and a rear suspension (74).
Rotational decoupling for assembly and disassembly of a gearbox-integrated mounted generator rotor
An arrangement including a transmission and a generator is disclosed. The generator includes a generator rotor being non-rotatably connected to an output shaft of the transmission or configured to be connectable to the output shaft of the transmission. An assembly bearing that supports the generator rotor in the output shaft is also disclosed.
Rotary mechanical system and maintenance method of rotary mechanical system
A rotary mechanical system includes a driving machine, a transmission unit that includes a main shaft, a main gear, an auxiliary gear meshing with the main gear, an auxiliary shaft, and a first gear, a gearbox that includes a second gear meshing with the first gear, an input shaft with the second gear fixed, and an output shaft that shifts a rotation speed of the input shaft, and a rotary machine that includes a rotary machine shaft connected to the output shaft. The first gear is a spur gear having a plurality of first tooth portions which are spur teeth whose teeth traces are parallel to the central axis. The second gear has a plurality of second tooth portions which are spur teeth whose teeth traces are parallel to the central axis, and each of which is disposed between the adjacent first tooth portions.
