Abstract:
A gear unit comprising:a gear housing having an essentially cylindrical interior space for the reception of individual gear elements; a housing cover disposed at an axial end of said cylindrical interior space of said housing; a device for the at least indirect resetting of at least one of actuating elements and braking arrangements, said braking arrangement having at least two friction surface-carrying elements, the friction surfaces of which are connectable with one another with friction closure over a further friction surface-carrying intermediate element; at least two bar-form elements extending axially relative to said cylindrical interior space and disposed in recesses connected with said cylindrical interior space, said bar-form elements directly mounting said device for the at least indirect resetting of at least one of actuating elements and braking arrangements; wherein said recesses are disposed in a space outside of a zone of the greatest dimension of the cylindrical interior space; and wherein said housing cover is free from axial force action through said device for the at least indirect resetting of at least one of actuating elements and braking arrangements.
