Abstract
A planet gear carrier with an annular oil shield that is secured in a region outside the planet wheel spindle to a side wall of the planet wheel carrier formed as a drum member of an adjacent clutch and extends so far radially inward that its inner edge inwardly overlaps the axial lubricating bores in the planet wheel spindles. The oil shield comprises a self-locking cone ring spreadably braced against the inner circumference of the drum member, a plastic molding clipped or welded to the smooth inner circumference of the cone ring, and an O-ring received in a retaining groove of the plastic molding.
