ABSTRACT:
In a shuttlecar wheel end, the wheel unit on which the wheel is mounted is driven by a right angle drive and incorporates first and second planetary gear reduction stages acting sequentially to supply a twice reduced drive to the wheel. Each gear reduction stage has a sun gear meshing with planet gears meshing in turn with a fixed ring gear. The planet gears in each case are carried by a rotatable planet carrier, with the planet carrier of the first reduction stage carrying the sun gear of the second reduction stage. The resulting wheel end is compact in design and does away with the need for an external speed reduction stage.
