What Are The Three Types Of Bevel Gears?

Bevel gears are divided into several types, including straight bevel gears, helical bevel gears, and curved bevel gears. Straight bevel gears have low axial force and high noise, and are used for low-speed transmission (<5m/s); The helical bevel gear has a high degree of overlap and low noise; Curved bevel gear transmission is stable, with low noise and high load-bearing capacity. It is used in high-speed and heavy-duty situations, with a transmission power of up to 3700 kW and a circumferential speed of over 40 meters per second. Umbrella gears are widely used in the transmission of intersecting axes in automobiles, machine tools, tractors, and other machinery. At present, powder metallurgy can only produce spur bevel gears, which has advantages such as low cost and good wear resistance.
