HELICAL GEAR
Elements of teeth are
twisted or helical.
Used for connecting shaft
at an angle in same or
different planes.
Smooth acting gearing.
MITRE GEARING
Teeth element
parallel to rotating
shafts are known as
spur gear.
Used to transmit
power and motion
through parallel
shafts.
HERRINGBONE GEAR
It’s equivalent to
two helical
gears,one having a
right hand and
other a left hand
helix.
It’s used in heavy
duty machines like
steel roll mills.
BEVEL GEAR
When two shafts are in
same plane but at
another,bevel gears an
angle with one are used.
It’s a frustum of a cone
having all elements of
teeth intersecting at a
point.
HYPOID GEARS
Modification of a
bevel gear where
the shaft are at
right angle but they
don’t intersect as
do the shaft for
bevel gears.
RACK GEARS
Rack gears are
straight and have
no curvature.
Used for feeding
mechanism and
reciprocating
drives.
