What is a Bevel gear?

Bevel gear is a type of gear used to transmit power between shafts that are set at an angle, typically 90 degrees. It has a conical shape that allows it to efficiently transfer rotational force between intersecting shafts. Bevel gears come in various types, including straight bevel gears and spiral bevel gears, each offering different performance characteristics. Straight bevel gears are simple and cost-effective but can be noisy, whereas spiral bevel gears are quieter and handle higher loads more smoothly.

Structure and Function:
Bevel gears are designed to change the direction of power transmission, typically at a 90-degree angle. Spiral bevel gears are often used where quiet operation and smoothness are required, while straight bevel gears are used in applications that prioritize simplicity and cost-efficiency.

Features:
・Efficient power transmission: They transmit power effectively at 90 degrees or other angles.
・High strength: They can withstand high loads and stresses depending on the design.
・Versatile applications: Used in automotive, industrial machinery, and many other sectors.
・Variety of tooth designs: Available in straight or spiral tooth configurations, depending on the application.

Application of Bevel gear

１．Automobiles: Used in the differential gears and drive mechanisms of cars.
２．Industrial machinery: Employed in robotics, manufacturing systems, and other power transmission applications.
３．Aerospace: Used in aircraft for transmitting power between engines and components.
４．Power tools: Found in drills, grinders, and other tools for transferring power.
