  • Drive gearbox on a turbomachine, consisting of a drive train with gear lines extending into non-parallel planes
    Patent number: 9803556
    Abstract: A gearbox to be mounted on a turbomachine and driven by a radial drive shaft of the latter. The gearbox has a three-dimensional or sinuous shape, which can house a large quantity of equipment to be driven, without occupying a large amount of space in any dimension, since the gearbox remains close to the turbomachine and the equipment can be distributed over a large surface. The drive train of gears successively extends into several non-parallel planes and comprises an axial branch on the turbomachine and a branch forming an arc of circle around the turbomachine.
