Gears
• Bevel gears are used to transmit motion between two
intersecting axes shafts.
• The teeth of the bevel gears may be straight or
spiral.
• Although the bevel gears are usually made for a shaft angle
of 90 degree, they can be produced for almost any shaft
angle.
DESIGN PROCEDURE FOR BEVEL
GEARS
• From the requirements choose suitable materials for
pinion and gear, tooth profile and pressure angle are
selected.
• Minimum cone distance,R can be determined by
using equation,
DESIGN PROCEDURE FOR BEVEL
GEARS
• Average module mav can be calculated
based on the beam strength using the
equation,
DESIGN PROCEDURE FOR BEVEL
GEARS
Diameter of pinion,
Checking conditions:
Check for surface compressive stress using the equation,
