Abstract

A planet carrier arrangement includes a bearing assembly having first and second roller bearings and a traction element having a first end supported by the bearing assembly such as to enable the traction element to oscillate. A planet carrier is mounted in a suspended manner to the traction element, wherein one of the roller bearings of the bearing assembly is configured to absorb an axial force seeking to lift the planet carrier.
