The teeth are cut in the form of a helix about the axis of rotation.

Helical gears

Operate on parallel axes and have teeth of opposite hand.

Parallel helical gears

Operates on crossed axes and may have teeth of the same or of opposite hand.



Used to transmit power between shafts which are not parallel and do not intersect.



Used to drive feed mechanism on machine tools, camshafts, oil pump on small internal combustion engines, and similar inits that require only small amounts of power.

Crossed-helical gears

Has straight teeth which are oblique to the direction of motion.

Helical rack

The contact theoreticaly extends across the entire tooth on a line parallel to the axis of rotation.

When spur gears begin to engage

Contact occurs only at the point of the leading edge of the tooth, gradually extending along a diagonal line across the tooth as the gears rotate.

P is the transverse diametral pitch, commonly called ______.

The pitch

The end thrust of two helical gears having opposite helices is counterbalanced if they are mounted on the same shaft, and if both sets of teeth are cut on single gear blank.
