A planet wheel carrier comprises first and second end-sections (102, 103) for supporting shafts of planet wheels (113-114) of a planetary gear. The planet wheel carrier comprises a support structure (104) connected to the first and second end-sections and located between the first and second end-sections in the axial direction of the planet wheels and between the planet wheels in the circumferential direction of the planet wheel carrier. The first end-section is attached to the support structure so that at least part of the first end-section is non-destructively detachable from the support structure. The fact that at least part of the first end-section can be detached from the support structure facilitates the maintenance of the planetary gear because, after removing the first end-section or its detachable part, the planet wheels can be removed and installed substantially easier than in cases where there is a traditional one-piece planet wheel carrier. |
