Do You Know About Hypoid Gears As An Enthusiast Of Used Cars Such As Ford Kuga 2014 For Sale


Either you are the prospective owner of ford Kuga 2014 for sale or not; you should know that in hypoid gears, the teeth are bent along the hyperboloid. This allows the axis of one of the gears to be moved while improving the mechanical and ergonomic parameters of the transfer. However, hypoid gears require high production precision, adaptation and strict observance of the operating rules.

Oblique Shaped

The transmission of hypoid gears differs from the usual, with straight or oblique teeth, the fact that its teeth are curved. They are curves along a special geometric curve - the hyperboloid; hence the name hypoid is the abbreviation of the hyperboloid. The main features of hypoid transmission are two. First of all, it can only be applied to nodes with intersecting axes of gears. There is no point in trying to build a hypoid gear with parallel shafts; it will block it immediately. Secondly, the shafts of the trees should be moved further with respect to each other, otherwise, it locks again. The magnitude of the displacement must be exactly matched to the mathematical parameters of the hypoid, this is the so-called hypoid shift. To be precise, there should be no doubt to state that when a buyer starts to search a reasonable ford Kuga 2014 price, the discussed aspects should help as key to unlock a happy deal. 

Speed Coordination

The main gear transmits torque from the crankshaft to the drive wheel differential. It is always performed downwards to coordinate the speed of the engine with those needed for the wheels and at the same time increase the torque on them. First, the crankshaft is sunk by the amount of hypoid movement. This allowed him to reduce the height of the tunnel in the cab and at the same time lower the center of gravity of the car, thus improving its stability. The second, the hypoid transmission torque transmits more easily than the helical gear, not to mention the toothed wheel. And finally, the hypoid gear produces less noise and can transmit more torque than the normal one; it has a large load capacity.  All this, taken together, increases both the comfort of the car and its duration. Therefore, the main hypoid gear is an indispensable attribute of sufficiently high-class cars. However, hypoid transmission has significant drawbacks, in addition to the complexity of production and, consequently, at a high cost. When gears are rotated, due to the fact that the teeth are curved, the force acts along the axis of the small pinion. 

Sensitive To Wear

Consequently, the hypoid gear is very sensitive to wear, to the processing not only of the gears but also of all its parts, in particular, the bearings. When it is inaccurate to adjust, it attaches easily, especially when changing the direction of rotation, when reverse gear is engaged. The tendency of the hypoid gear to seize is used in Thorsen type central self-locking differentials (axles). They are used in cars with fully automatic traction). The teeth of the hypoid gear adapt very closely than normal. The oil in the hypoid gear housing should only be filled with a special hypoid, with anti-wear and extreme pressure additives. And you have to fill in a strictly defined amount. However, all the disadvantages of the hypoid are more than offset by its advantages and technologically they are completely overcome. With the development of the automotive industry and the general culture of production, ‘hypoid’ switched to the transmission of consumer-level machines. Now it can already be seen in the low prices cars, as well.
