A horizontal block diagram shows a wind turbine drivetrain from left to right: Rotor hub (3 blades), Main bearing, LSS, Planetary stage, IMS, HSS, and Generator 1,500 rpm, with arrows connecting each block. A dashed bracket labeled Gearbox 1:118.4 spans the Planetary stage, IMS, and HSS, and small labels below indicate 12.7 rpm near the LSS and 1,500 rpm near the gearbox output/generator. The LSS, IMS, and HSS blocks are shaded light blue while the others are white with blue outlines.
