Abstract

A transmission turbo machine integrates drive units and/or driven units into a machine train via a transmission. The integrated transmission substantially comprises a central large wheel with a shaft and a plurality of pinions with pinion shafts. The large wheel is operatively connected to the pinions, and the ends of the pinion shafts are operatively connected to a drive unit and/or driven unit. The shaft of the large wheel is operatively connected to a drive unit and/or driven unit. The invention is characterized in that the drive unit and/or driven unit is an axial expander which is mounted in a cantilevering manner in one or more stages.

Dependent claims

A transmission turbo machine (1) which integrates drive units and/or driven units (A1, A2, A3, A4, A5, A7) into a machine train via a transmission (2), the transmission (2) comprising:

a central large wheel (9) with a shaft (13);
a plurality of pinions (10, 14, 15) with pinion shafts (11, 16, 17);
and
a transmission housing (7) in which the central large wheel (9) and the plurality of pinions (10, 14, 15) are arranged,
wherein the central large wheel (9) is operatively connected to the pinions (10, 14, 15), and each of the pinion shafts (11, 16, 17) has an end operatively connected to a respective drive unit and/or driven unit (A1, A2, A3, A4, A5), the shaft (13) of the central large wheel (9) being operatively connected to a drive unit and/or driven unit (A7), wherein at least one of the drive units and/or driven units (A1) is an axial expander mounted in a cantilevering manner in one or more stages.
