Abstract
A transmission in particular for wind power generators, with an epicyclic planetary gear arrangement having a sun gear, a ring gear, multiple planet gears and a planet carrier. The planet gears have planet gear teeth in mesh with sun gear teeth and ring gear teeth. Each planet gear is rotatably mounted via a radial slide bearing on a planet pin that is non-rotatably connected to the planet carrier. Each slide bearing includes a bearing hub positioned between the planet pin and the planet gear, which is non-rotatably connected to the planet pin. Between the bearing hub and the planet pin an annular support is formed, which seen in the axial direction has a smaller dimension than the bearing hub and/or a smaller dimension than the planet gear teeth of the planet gear.
