Abstract: A planet wheel carrier for a planetary gear includes a carrier body for supporting shafts of planet wheels and a slide bearing for rotatably supporting a first end of the carrier body with respect to a frame of the planetary gear. The carrier body includes oil channels for conducting oil to bearings of the planet wheels. The slide bearing includes an oil channel for conducting oil from an oil channel of the frame to the oil channels of the carrier body. The planet wheel carrier includes one or more conical roller bearings for rotatably supporting a second end of the carrier body with respect to the frame. Thus, the slide bearing conducts pressurized oil to the rotating planet wheel carrier whereas the conical roller bearings receive axial forces directed to the planet wheel carrier.
