Planetary gear mechanism with clearance adjustment mechanism

摘要

The planetary gear arrangement has a first (38) and second (39) planet carrier rotatably supporting a first and second planet wheel respectively. The two planet carriers are screwed together after turning relatively to each other in order to adjust the clearance of the two planet carriers in relation to a sun wheel (45) and internally toothed hollow wheel (32). The two planet carriers are juxtaposed axially. A planet wheel shaft of the first or second planet wheel passes through the two planet carriers from the side of an outer end surface (39c) of the second planet carrier. The two planet carriers are rotatably mounted by means of a shared mounting element (40) on an inner peripheral surface of a housing (2)
