Question

Which gears can be used in intersecting shafts for power transmission (choose the correct option)

A.

Helical Gear

B.

Worm gear

C.

Bevel Gear

D.

Rack Pinion

Correct option is C


Bevel gears are used for power transmission between intersecting shafts. These gears have conical-shaped teeth and are designed to transmit motion at an angle, typically 90°, though other angles are possible.
Reasons:
· Designed for Angular Transmission:
· Bevel gears allow power transfer between shafts that intersect at a point (mostly at 90°).
· Types of Bevel Gears:
· Straight Bevel Gears – Simple design, used for lower speeds.
· Spiral Bevel Gears – More durable, smoother operation at high speeds.
· Hypoid Gears – A variation used in automotive differentials.
