Abstract: A gearwheel arrangement (1) for the quieter transmission of a mechanical rotary power, the gearwheel arrangement (1) having a first intermediate gearwheel (2) and a second intermediate gearwheel (3), where the first intermediate gearwheel (2) and the second intermediate gearwheel (3) can rotate together about a common rotation axis (10), where at least one of the intermediate gearwheels (2, 3) has helical teeth (14, 15), the intermediate gearwheels (2, 3) can move axially relative to one another to a limited extent, and at least one of the intermediate gearwheels (2, 3) is acted upon axially by a spring force. Also disclosed is an auxiliary power take-off module for a vehicle transmission having an input gearwheel (12) and a gearwheel arrangement (1) of the above type, and a vehicle transmission with an auxiliary output gearwheel (13) and a gearwheel arrangement (1) of the said type.
