  • Patent number: 11536362
    Abstract: A transmission includes a fan assembly having a fan wheel, a cover, and a grating. The fan wheel is connected in a torsionally fixed manner to the input shaft of the transmission, and the fan cover is fixed in place on a holding frame, which, for example, includes multiple parts and is fastened to the housing of the transmission. The grating is formed by two grating parts, whose first separating line is a straight segment or is formed by two mutually aligned straight segments, and the cover includes two cover parts, whose second separating line is a plane curve, made up of straight segment sections.

  • Patent number: 10718353
    Abstract: A gear unit having a shaft, in particular an input shaft, a fan impeller being connected to the shaft in a torsionally fixed manner, a fan hood being connected to the gear unit housing, which at least partially encloses the fan impeller, a separation plate for separating the pressure chamber of the fan from the suction chamber of the fan being connected to the fan hood, where the separation plate has an air intake opening for the fan impeller and is situated on the side of the fan impeller facing axially away from the gear unit, the fan impeller has an upper and a lower cover disk, which are axially set apart from each other, and fan blades are disposed between the cover disks, so that channels are formed, the radial clearance of the air intake opening being disposed within, especially centrally within, the radial clearance region covered by the upper cover disk, and the air intake opening is disposed axially within, especially centrally within, the axial region covered by the upper cover disk.
