I've not been able to find any straightforward ressource about involute bevel gear modeling.
So I went take a look at
deling. So I went take a look at my engineering handbooks and found the equations, made a model on solidworks under Tregold del on solidworks under Tregold's approximation (which suits perfectly any usual gear modeling) and made a little test assembly and made a little test assembly. The gears mate perfectly and all the "reasonable" gear combinations work flawlessly (you can m ions work flawlessly (you can make the model crash if you put some fancy parameters of course, but it's pretty stable). I've dec , but it's pretty stable). I've decided to make a video tutorial for any person who's interested in designing their own bevel gears ( signing their own bevel gears (solidworks tool box ones are not involute and limited to 90° shaft angle only). angle only).
