MUMBAI, India, June 20 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202517050057 A) filed by Flender Gmbh, Bocholt, Germany, on May 24, for 'powertrain mounting for planetary transmission.'

Inventor(s) include Hambrecht, Ralf.

The application for the patent was published on June 20, under issue no. 25/2025.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The invention relates to a powertrain (102) for a wind turbine (100) comprising a planetary transmission (10) for a wind turbine (100) which is driven via a rotor (106), comprising at least one planetary stage (14) which rotates about a rotational axis AD in a transmission housing (12), wherein the at least one planetary stage (14) has a planet carrier (16) and a ring gear (20), and the planet carrier (16) or the ring gear (20) is at least indirectly drivingly connected to the rotor (106). The planet carrier (16) has a plurality of planet gears (18) which rotate in the planet carrier (16), are radially mounted on plain bearings, and mesh with the ring gear (20) and a sun gear (22) in a reciprocal manner. Guide elements (24) are provided between the transmission housing (12) and the planet carrier (16). By virtue of the guide elements (24), the self-centering function of the toothed elements, i.e. planet gears (18) and sun gear (22), is facilitated in the planetary stage (14) in a controlled manner and is supported so as to reduce the weight."

The patent application was internationally filed on Dec. 07, 2023, under International application No.PCT/EP2023/084685.
