<p>The invention relates to a helical bevel gear for a rack-and-pinion steering system. The helical bevel gear comprises a pinion (1), which meshes on the drive side with a toothed rack and a bevel gear (2, 3, 4) which is arranged on the drive side on the pinion (1) in a fixed manner, whereon torque induced by steering and/or steering auxiliary force engages. The bevel gear (2, 3, 4) is embodied as an assembled toothed wheel and consists of a gear rim (2) which is arranged between two flanges (3, 4) in relation to the axial direction of the gear and/or the pinion thereof (1). The gear rim (2) pushed back onto a hub (5) embodied on one of the flanges and interacts with the flanges (3, 4) in a positive fit. According to the invention, not all of the components forming the assembled bevel gear are only pushed into the press fit on the pinion (1). Rather, one of the flanges (3), i.e. the flange (3) comprising the hub (5) for the gear rim (2), is configured as one piece with the pinion (1).</p> |
