Abstract (en)
A propulsion system (10) for a marine vessel (100) is provided. The propulsion system (10) is easy to service, as respective components of the same, i.e. an electric motor (26), a thrust bearing (30) and a fluid distribution unit (40), are provided separately and connected to each other by a plurality of couplings (32, 34). Hydraulic fluid is supplied to a propeller (24) via hydraulic conduits formed in shafts (28, 36) of the electric motor (26) and the thrust bearing (30). The propulsion system (10) can be used for marine vessels (100) of different sizes and in applications ranging from light to heavy and extreme duty applications by selecting appropriate components such as an appropriate thrust bearing (30).
