Answer:
Spur gear- Spur gears transmit power through shafts that are parallel. The teeth of the spur gears are parallel to the shaft axis. This causes the gears to produce radial reaction loads on the shaft, but not axial loads. Spur gears tend to be noisier than helical gears because they operate with a single line of contact between teeth.
Helical gears- Helical gears have teeth that are oriented at an angle to the shaft, unlike spur gears which are parallel. This causes more than one tooth to be in contact during operation and helical gears are capable of carrying more load than spur gears. Due to the load sharing between teeth, this arrangement also allows helical gears to operate smoother and quieter than spur gears.
Double Helical gear- Double helical gears are a variation of helical gears in which two helical faces are placed next to each other with a gap separating them. Each face has identical, but opposite, helix angles. Employing a double helical set of gears eliminates thrust loads and offers the possibility of even greater tooth overlap and smoother operation.
Herringbone gear- Herringbone gears are very similar to the double helical gear, but they do not have a gap separating the two helical faces. Herringbone gears are typically smaller than the comparable double helical, and are ideally suited for high shock and vibration applications.
Worm gear- Worm gears transmit power through right angles on non-intersecting shafts. Worm gears produce thrust load and are good for high shock load applications but offer very low efficiency in comparison to the other gears. Due to this low efficiency, they are often used in lower horsepower applications.
