ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a gearbox arrangement for driving a first multi-bladed rotor and a second coaxial multi-bladed rotor in opposite directions.
The gearbox assembly comprises a first epicyclic gear arrangement and a coaxial second epicyclic gear arrangement. The first epicyclic gear arrangement is driven by a first input shaft, and the second epicyclic gear has a static second input shaft. The first epicyclic gear arrangement is drivingly connected to the first multi-bladed rotor and the second epicyclic gear arrangement is drivingly connected to the second multi-bladed rotor. The first epicyclic gear arrangement is interconnected to the second epicyclic gear arrangement so that the first and second multi-bladed rotors are driven in opposite directions. It is preferred that the first and second epicyclic gear arrangements are dimensioned and configured to drive the first and second multi-bladed rotors with equal and opposite torques, so that the static carrying structure can be of reduced strength and weight.
