Abstract
A planetary transmission for a wind turbine includes a transmission housing, a central sun gear which has an outer toothing, a ring gear which has an inner toothing, a one-sided planetary carrier, and multiple planetary gears mounted on the planet carrier via a planetary gear bearing configured as a sliding bearing such that they can rotate about planetary gear rotational axes and that have outer toothings that engage with the inner toothing of the ring gear and the outer toothing of the sun gear, where every planetary gear bearing has two annular bearing bodies penetrated by a planetary gear shaft and rotationally fixed thereon and have conical sliding surfaces on the outer circumferential surfaces thereof such that tapered ends of the bearing bodies point towards one another, and where surfaces corresponding to the sliding surfaces of the planetary gear bearing are formed on inner circumferential surfaces of the planetary gear.
