Abstract
The invention relates to a gear arrangement (1), comprising a main gear (2) and a gear (4) that can be rotated relative to the main gear in the circumferential direction (3), wherein the main gear (2) or the rotatable gear (4) has at least one supporting web (12) that protrudes in the axial direction (7) and the rotatable gear (4) or the main gear (2) has at least one opening (16), in which the supporting web (12) is at least partially accommodated, wherein the opening (16) has a dimension in the circumferential direction (3) that is greater than the dimension of the supporting web (12) in the same direction, and comprising at least one spring element (10), which acts in the circumferential direction (3) of the main gear (2) and which is arranged on a lateral surface (13) of the supporting web (12) or on a lateral surface (17) of the opening (16) and at least partially within the opening (16). The spring element (10) is connected to the supporting web (12) or the lateral surface (17) of the opening (16).
