Straight Bevel Gears
Straight Bevel Gears come with straight teeth that are parallel to generators of cone and are of simplest of bevel gear options. Resembling spur gears, the difference here is, that these are conical in straight bevel gears with teeth having no helix angles.
The available finish types include equal size gears with 90 degrees shaft angle as well as shaft angle that are present in other angles other than 90 degree. Further, the straight bevel angle can also be provided with one gear flat with pitch angle of 90 degrees.
Features
- Straight bevel gears are simplest of bevel gears
- Manufactured on precision generating machines using indexing process
- Teeth having tapered depth and thickness
- Teeth cut on outside of cones and having straight tooth geometry and in case of extension also pass through intersection of its axis
- Can be available with one gear flat with pitch angle of 90 degrees
- Featuring conical pith surfaces operating on intersecting axes
- Can also be constructed to operate on defined shaft angle
- Gears are recommended for usage in areas having less operational speeds
- Gears also recommended where there is light load
- These also form important function in bevel gear differential
