To transmit from 2 counter-rotating shafts into 1 perpendicular shaft?

[QUOTE="Baluncore, post: 6826299, member: 447632"] It is the simplest, but limited solution. The bevel gears would need tooth counts that allowed for a fixed ratio of input shaft speeds. One pinion drives a second pinion on a parallel side shaft, called a counter-shaft, which must then counter-rotate. If your two input shafts are coaxial, then the other shaft will also need to be offset by the same amount. That can be done using two slightly smaller pinions, coupled by an intermediate idler pinion of any convenient size. You might consider using a pancake differential to combine the two axial shafts, followed by a right angle drive to the perpendicular output shaft. [/QUOTE]
