Publication number: 20240328500Abstract: An arrangement includes a drive-side transmission with an output shaft of the transmission, which extends along an axis. A work machine with a drive shaft is connected in a rotationally fixed manner to the output shaft. To improve stability and to save space, the transmission on the work machine, by the connection between the output shaft and the drive shaft and a torque arm, is supported to the extent of at least 90% of the forces arising during operation. The connection of the output shaft and the drive shaft is configured to be flexurally stiff to support transverse forces. The axial end of the drive shaft is embodied as a hollow shaft. The axial end of the output shaft has a stub which is disposed at least partially in the hollow shaft of the drive shaft.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 26, 2021Publication date: October 3, 2024Applicant: Flender GmbHInventors: Volker Düvel, DIRK SCHROER, SIMON BECKA

Patent number: 10626978Abstract: A transmission includes a transmission housing with an oil reservoir and a transmission housing cover to close an opening of the transmission housing. A transmission shaft receives a toothed wheel and which can be driven by way of a motor. A cooler is arranged on the outside of the transmission housing, with a fan arranged on the outside of the transmission housing feeding cooling air to the cooler. An oil delivery pump pumps oil through oil delivery lines from the oil reservoir to the cooler, with an oil return line routing oil from the cooler back to the transmission housing. A separate drive motor drives the fan and the oil delivery pump independently of the transmission shaft, with the drive motor, the fan, the cooler and the oil delivery pump being fastened to the transmission housing cover.Type: GrantFiled: September 19, 2018Date of Patent: April 21, 2020Assignee: FLENDER GMBHInventor: Simon Becka
