摘要:
A transmission-hub unit (1) for a wind energy installation includes transmission (3) including a single piece rotatably supported transmission part (12, 27) which comprises the input gear wheel (1 1) of the transmission (3) as well as the blade-hub (2). Preferably, only two radial bearings (16, 18) for the support of the blade-hub (2) and the gear wheel (11) are provided. Additionally, axial bearings may be provided. A particularly compact, short, and light-weight arrangement for the transmission (3) and the blade-hub (2) is obtained thereby. The concept is particularly suitable for large wind energy installations.
摘要:
A braking and/or clutch arrangement has a cooling system which is sealed off with respect to excess pressure. Liquid coolant is fed under pressure to friction elements and first comes in contact with the surface areas of the friction elements whose relative speed is the highest. The operating device required for operating the friction elements is connected with the clutch half which in the operation is subjected to lower rotational accelerations to reduce heat formation.
