An impact wrench includes a brushless motor, a sun gear rotatable by the brushless motor, a planetary gear meshing with the sun gear, an internal gear meshing with the planetary gear and having a first recess on an outer circumference, a gear case holding the internal gear and having a second recess on an inner circumference, a spindle holding the planetary gear, and a pin disposed in the first recess and in the second recess.
Planetary gearbox having a ring gear accommodated in a housing part
A planetary gearbox includes a ring gear accommodated in a housing part, the ring gear particularly has on its radially outer surface, in particular its radially outer side, an annular groove, the annular groove, in particular a circumferential annular groove in the circumferential direction, and a spring element is accommodated in the annular groove, which projects at least partially into an annular groove introduced into the housing part.
Diameter saving ring gear flexure
A ring gear assembly includes a ring gear, a gear box case, and a set of bolts. The ring gear includes a set of gear teeth inside the ring gear and arranged in a circle around the ring gear axis. The ring gear further includes a set of flanges arranged along at least one side of the ring gear. Each flange has a respective flange bolt hole therethrough, and each flange bolt hole has a respective bolt axis that is oriented perpendicular to the ring gear axis. The gear box case has a set of gear box bolt holes therethrough, each gear box bolt hole corresponding to a respective one of the flange bolt holes. Each of the bolts passes through a respective one of the gear box bolt holes and its corresponding flange bolt hole to fasten the ring gear to the gear box case.

MECHANICAL REDUCTION GEAR OF AN AIRCRAFT TURBOMACHINE
A mechanical reduction gear of a turbomachine, in particular of an aircraft. The reduction gear includes a sun gear, a ring gear surrounded by a ring gear carrier, and planet gears meshed with the sun gear and the ring gear. The ring gear carrier includes an axial abutment on which the ring gear is configured to bear, and helical external splines which are engaged in complementary internal splines of the ring gear carrier and which are configured to cooperate by sliding with the internal splines so as to force the ring gear to be held against the abutment in operation.
FAN DRIVE GEAR SYSTEM WITH IMPROVED MISALIGNMENT CAPABILITY
An epicyclic gear assembly includes a carrier that includes a first plate axially spaced from a second plate. At least one epicyclic gear set is located between the first plate and the second plate. The first plate is configured to rotate with an output of the epicyclic gear assembly. A first bearing race is attached to the first plate for supporting a first bearing. A second bearing race is attached to the second plate for supporting a second bearing.
ACTUATOR AND PLANETARY GEAR APPARATUS WITH UNEVEN CROWNING
Disclosed herein are actuator, planetary-gear apparatus, and structural-unit embodiments configured to reduce noise and vibration caused by operation of planetary gears. An embodiment may include a ring gear having an outer peripheral surface that extends in the axial direction. A first raised portion may be formed on said outer peripheral surface; and a housing having an inner peripheral surface that is provided facing, and with a gap from, the outer peripheral surface of the ring gear. A second raised portion may be formed on said inner peripheral surface. Movement of the ring gear in the circumferential direction is limited by linear contact or point contact between the first raised portion and the second raised portion, for example. The outer peripheral surface and/or the inner peripheral surface may be a surface of a crowned shape that is bowed in the outer radial direction, according to some further embodiments.
Vehicle driveline component having spring sets disposed between a housing and a ring gear of a transmission to mitigate noise generated from torque reversal
A vehicle driveline component with a housing, a ring gear of a transmission, and a plurality of spring sets. The housing defines a bore and a plurality of grooves that are spaced circumferentially about the bore. The ring gear includes an internally-toothed ring gear body and a plurality of mounting teeth that project radially from the ring gear body. The first mounting teeth are received into the grooves in the housing. Each of the spring sets has a first spring, which is disposed between a first side of an associated one of the mounting teeth and a first wall of an associated one of the grooves into which the associated one of the mounting teeth is received, and a second spring that is disposed between a second side of the associated one of the mounting teeth and a second wall of the associated one of the grooves.
