2 Pinion Cage for Supporting at Least One Planet Wheel in a Spiral Gear Planetary Gear Train for an Adjustment Device for Adjusting Two Structural Components Which Can Be Adjusted Relative to One Another Spiral Gear Planetary Gear Train with Such a Pinion Cage and Engine Transmission Unit with Such a Spiral Gear Planetary Gear Train

摘要

The present invention relates to a pinion cage for supporting one or more helical gear planetary wheels (26) in a helical gear planetary gear train for an adjustment device for adjusting two structural components that are mutually adjustable, wherein the helical gear planetary wheel (26) includes a first shaft direction portion (29) extending over the helical gear planetary wheel (26) and includes a planetary wheel shaft (28) including a second shaft direction portion (31) extending over the helical gear planetary wheel (26), the pinion cage (10) includes a tubular base body (12) defining a pinion cage shaft (AP), one or more perforations (24) disposed in the base body (12) and penetrating the same, a first support portion (33) starting from the perforation (24), and a second support portion (35) starting from the perforation (24), the first and second support portions (33, 35) are configured to rotatably receive the first and second shaft direction portions (29, 31), the planetary gear shaft (28) is arranged to move in a twisted manner on the pinion cage shaft (AP) when the shaft direction portions (29, 31) are received in the support portions (33, 35), and the pinion cage includes a first fixing means (32) connected to the base body (12) for fixing the first shaft direction portion (29) to the base body (12). The present invention also relates to a helical gear planetary gear train (58) having the pinion cage, and an engine transmission (56) having the helical gear planetary gear train (58).
