Helical Gears, Bevel Gears and Worm Gears

Helical GearDifferences from Spur Gears
• Tooth profile is still involute when looking from side of gear, but profile twists around according to helix angle.
• Line of contact is at angle.• Initial contact is at point instead of line (gears are quieter).
• Contact ratio is higher (quieter).• Causes sideways (axial) thrust loads.
• Note that meshing gear must have opposite helix direction.

Contact Ratio of Helical Gears
• Contact ratio now also depends on:� helix angle
� gear width

Herringbone Gears
• Avoids axial thrust loads• More expensive to manufacture.
• Need to allow movement of one of the gears to allow alignment.
• Helix angles can be large, since you don’t need to account for large thrust forces.

Crossed-Axis Helical Gears• Normal helical gears can actually be used with non-parallel axes!
• But has point contact (not line contact).
• Must have same pressure angle & normal pitch.
• Helix angles can be different.
• Can be same or opposite hand.

Bevel GearsDifferences from Spur Gears
• Non-parallel axes
• Pitch cone instead of pitch cylinder (and Spherical tooth ends instead of planar)
• Narrowing teeth

Spiral Bevel GearsSpiral bevel gears are to bevel gears as helical gears are to spur gears.
In “hypoid gears,” the axes do not intersect!
