herringbone gear, a proper term
herringbone gear, a proper term
(OP)
Hi!
I wonder whether there is a conventional term for those single-helix halves of a herringbone gear?
Such a gear includes two helices, doesn't it? Each of the two occupies half the gear. Is it herringbone semi-gear or semi-herrinbone gear or anything else?
OK. I just need to know how you'd term it in English.
Hope somebody knows the answer.
