How do we calculate the cone angle of straight bevel gears?

How do we calculate the cone angle of straight bevel gears?

Answer:

3, when the angle is more than 90 degree (i.e. two obtuse angle intersection)Cone angle, delta 1 (omitted)
2, when the angle is less than 90 degrees (i.e. two into acute angle)Sub cone angle Delta 1=arctan[sin sigma / (U+cos sigma)]
1, when the angle is equal to 90 degrees (i.e. vertical axis)Cone angle (cone angle), Delta 1=arctan (z1/z2)
