Abstract

Experiments on the load carrying characteristics of hypoid gears with various oil viscosities and concentrations of anti-wear agent were carried out. As the result, it was found that there are some general tendencies about the limiting load for scoring and friction loss of the hypoid gears. The limiting load for scoring is quite dependent upon the viscosity of base oil and the concentration of anti-wear agent but the frictional loss mainly dependent upon only the oil viscosity but independent upon the concentration of anti-wear agent. Furthermore the friction loss of the hypoid gears was compared with that of the spur gears.
