Abstract

A pinion cage for supporting at least one spiral gear planet wheel in a spiral gear planetary gear train for an adjustment device for adjusting two structural components which can be adjusted relative to one another, wherein the spiral gear planet wheel comprises a planet wheel axle which comprises a first axial section extending over the spiral gear planet wheel and comprises a second axial section extending over the spiral gear planet wheel, and the pinion cage comprises a tubular base body which defines a pinion cage axis, at least one perforation arranged in the base body and penetrating through it, a first support section starting from the perforation, a second support section starting from the perforation, wherein the first and the second support sections are constructed for rotatably receiving the first and the second axial sections and are arranged in such a manner that the planet wheel axle runs in a twisted manner to the pinion cage axis if the axial sections are received in the support sections, and the pinion cage comprises a first fixing means connected to the base body for fixing the first axial section in the base body and a spiral gear planetary gear train with such…
