有些車的轉(zhuǎn)向系角傳動(dòng)比是可變的，這種轉(zhuǎn)向器采用齒輪齒條式，它在中間而不是外部，有不同的齒密度（每寸齒數(shù)）。
The hypoid gear is in common use today due mainly to the fact that the offset pinion allows the propeller shaft to be set below, (for cars) or above, (for commercial vehicles) the crown wheel center.
現(xiàn)在的主減速器普遍使用準(zhǔn)雙曲面圓錐齒輪，這主要是因?yàn)?主動(dòng)錐齒輪的偏移允許轎車上傳動(dòng)軸布置得比從動(dòng)錐齒輪低一些，而商用車上又允許布置得比從動(dòng)錐齒輪高一些。
