Abstract: A transmission, especially for wind power installations includes a planetary stage on the input side that is mounted upstream of at least one gear stage. The planetary stage includes at least two power-splitting planetary gears that are mounted in parallel. A differential gear that is mounted downstream of the power-splitting planetary gears compensates for an unequal load distribution between the individual planetary gears caused by their parallel disposition.

Abstract: An electric drive unit for a vehicle is disclosed which has two electric machines axially aligned and connected with each other in mirror image. Each electric machine has a casing (3), a rotor (2) having a wheel body (16), an inner annular stator (4) including stator windings (5), having an axial, substantially cylindrical recess (11). The stator is attached to the casing (3), a rotor shaft (7) is attached to the wheel body (16) and extends into the substantially cylindrical axial recess (11) of the stator (4). There are first mounting means (20) rotatably mounted within the housing and relative thereto for mounting the rotor shaft (7); and an output coupling means (8, 9, 19, 25, 26) having a connecting flange (25, 26) for detachably connecting an output shaft thereto, the output coupling means (8, 9, 19, 25, 2 86) being disposed substantially within the axial cylindrical recess (11).

Abstract: A ship's drive with two counterturning propellers, the rear propeller of which is fastened to an inner shaft and the front propeller of which is fastened to the head end of a hollow shaft, which runs concentrically with the inner shaft. The hollow shaft is connected to a gearing and the inner shaft is connected to a propulsion unit. A gearwheel is disposed at the foot end of the hollow shaft which engages a further gearwheel which is fastened to an input shaft running parallel to the inner shaft. The input shaft can be connected with the output of a second engine.

Abstract: A coordinate measuring machine has supporting members movable in a plurality of coordinate directions which are each made of welded steel construction. Surfaces of the supporting members are covered by sheet metal shells which are spaced by a small distance away from the supporting members and form an air space thereover. This reduces the adverse influences of temperature induced expansions and contractions.

Abstract: The invention relates to a quill for coordinate measuring machines of square cross-section and guided by a total of eight bearing parts within a guiding part. Three bearing parts which bear against quill surfaces are located adjacent the upper and in the lower ends of the guide surfaces in the guiding part. Two more bearing parts are provided in a Z direction approximately between the upper and lower bearing parts. Due to the special configuration of the bearing parts relative to each other and the horizontally acting springs inserted in certain bearing parts the twisting of the quill is determined and also the specified quill twisting accuracy of two angular seconds max. is obtained.
