Abstract
A transmission series has a first transmission and a second transmission. The first transmission and the second transmission each have a respective input shaft, a housing, a supporting structure fixed in the housing, and at least two bearings by means of which the input shaft is mounted rotatably in the respective supporting structure. The at least two bearings of the first transmission are of the same first design and the at least two bearings of the second transmission are of the same second design that is different from the first design. The supporting structures of the first and second transmissions are designed identically.

A transmission series comprising:
- a first transmission and a second transmission, wherein the first transmission and the second transmission each have a respective input shaft, a housing, a supporting structure fixed in the housing, and at least two bearings by means of which the input shaft is mounted rotatably in the supporting structure;
- wherein each of the at least two bearings of the first transmission are of a first design;
- wherein each of the at least two bearings of the second transmission are of a second design different from the first design;
- and
- wherein the supporting structure of the first transmission and the supporting structure of the second transmission are of identical design;
- and
- wherein the at least two bearings of the first transmission are configured as roller bearings inclined to the input shaft in an X-arrangement and the at least two bearings of the second transmission are configured as ball bearings in an O-arrangement.
