a) It adopts a double helical tooth design, and usually has a retraction groove in the middle (or a seamless continuous structure).
b) The contact line on the tooth surface is in the shape of a "V", and the meshing process is smooth with no axial thrust.
3)Advantages of Herringbone Gear
a) Eliminate axial force: The axial forces of the left and right helical gears cancel each other out, reducing the load on the bearings and making the system more stable.
b) High load-bearing capacity: The double helix structure ensures a more even distribution of the load, making it suitable for high-power transmissions.
