Questions about helical bevel gear drives
Thread Content
For helical bevel gear drives, why is the axial force directed outward when the pinion is under load (this must be taken into account during design)? Tip: This does not include the axial component caused by the conical surface.

Helical bevel gear transmission: it features a high rotational speed and a large starting torque (the helical bevels allow for gradual increase in torque), and it enables the change of the output direction. Since the spiral bevel is the input shaft and the tooth surfaces push against the gears of the output shaft as they rotate, the axial force is directed outward.
The axial force must be directed outward, right? We really want to know why as well. I’ve encountered this issue at work recently as well: the input shaft of the reducer produces a knocking sound when it’s idle, but the knocking sound disappears when the load is applied.
It has been read, so why does it still show as unread? There’s something wrong with this post, right?
