| 1. | Oils for hypoid gear lubrication will contain high content of EP additives.
|
| 2. | Hypoid gears are still common in larger trucks because they can transmit higher torque.
|
| 3. | The rear axle has a hypoid gear set.
|
| 4. | This hypoid gear is a bevel gear that changes the direction of the drive rotation.
|
| 5. | In older automotive designs, hypoid gears were typically used in rear-drive automobile efficiency.
|
| 6. | A hypoid gear incorporates some sliding and can be considered halfway between a straight-cut gear and a worm gear.
|
| 7. | Special gear oils are required for hypoid gears because the sliding action requires effective lubrication under extreme pressure between the teeth.
|
| 8. | Another advantage of hypoid gear is that the ring gear of the differential and the input pinion gear are both hypoid.
|
| 9. | This allows the table feed to be synchronized to a rotary fixture, enabling the milling of spiral features such as hypoid gears.
|
| 10. | Final drive was by hypoid gears, replacing the worm drive that had been used on final drives in Daimler cars since 1910.
