Abstract: A gearbox arrangement includes a gearbox housing, a first shaft supported in bearings in the housing, the first shaft containing a cavity which extends eccentrically to the axis of rotation of the first shaft, a second shaft supported in the cavity for rotation and having an end region projecting from the cavity and being provided with gear teeth, and a third shaft supported in the gear box housing for rotation, with the axis of rotation of the third shaft cooperating with the axis of rotation of the first shaft to define a plane. Leakage of lubricant from the housing is prevented by fastening a plate to the first shaft so as to prevent axial movement of the second shaft while containing an opening for the end region of the second shaft. Sealing devices are provided for all of the openings of the gearbox housing as well as for the opening in the plate in order to prevent the escape of lubricant from the gearbox housing.
