Abstract: A rotor pivoting system (1) for setting a rotor (2) upright, for the purpose of maintenance and/or repair work: a turning pedestal (9) having a pivoting device (10), and at least one bearing pedestal (11) for supporting the rotor when not upright; a heavy-duty stand (3) with a multiplicity of vertically extendable supporting feet (4, 5) which receive the turning pedestal and the bearing pedestal and is transportable and introduces forces occurring when a rotor arranged on the turning pedestal (9) and the bearing pedestal (11) is being set upright, via the supporting feet (4, 5), into a base on which said stand is positioned. Also, a method for carrying out maintenance and/or repair work on a rotor (2) of a machine using a rotor pivoting system (1) according to the invention.

Abstract: A transmission for a system, in which a directed force is introduced eccentrically with respect to a main shaft of the transmission, comprising the main shaft which is rotatably mounted in relation to a stationary housing by a main shaft bearing, a sun gear which is fixedly connected to the housing being arranged concentrically around the main shaft, and at least one control housing that rotates around the housing, wherein the first section thereof acts on the main shaft in a rotationally fixed manner and a planetary wheel is rotatably mounted by a first rotary bearing on the second section thereof, said planetary gear meshing with the sun gear. According to the invention, a force transmission means is fastened to the control housing and a drive crank rigidly engages the first end on the planetary wheel, wherein a second end of the drive crank is mounted in an articulated manner on a crank arm, said crank arm being supported in relation to the control housing by a movable coupling means.
