In the first part of this two-part series has Gutekunst feathers about the Basics of spring design informed. In this second part you will find the specific calculation data for the design of Compression springs , Tension springs and Leg
Below is the summary of the basics about Spring design of Compression springs , Tension springs and Leg springs . Technical springs are still one of the most important machine elements today and are used successfully in vehicles, precision mechanical
Before interpreting the Compression spring It should basically be clarified whether the intended type of stress is static, quasi-static or dynamic. Static or quasi-static stress Time-constant (resting) load or time-changing load with less than 10,000 strokes in total or small
Whether spring steel, bronze or brass wire – everyone Spring material has a specific strength. This determines the degree of mechanical resistance, for example if it comes to plastic deformation or separation. The characteristic values for the strength can with
Safety elements are small, almost inconspicuous machine components that are used in almost every construction. The form-fitting components act as guide elements to protect and limit other machine parts against axial play. The security elements are available in many designs.
Hookesche’s law describes the elastic deformation of solids in a linear special case of the Elasticity Act. In this process, the elastic force of the body changes with stretching or squeezing. When applying compression springs, extension springs and torsion springs
List of the most important spring steels with material description, operating temperature, modulus of elasticity (E-modulus) and sliding modulus (G-modulus) as well as price index. Compared to other steels, spring steel has a higher strength and can be deformed up
Leg springs, also known as torsion springs, are mechanical energy stores that absorb a torque when the legs are angularly / rotationally moved, which they release again when they are released. Gutekunst Federn offers quick selection and procurement of torsion
With conical compression springs, the diameter of the changes Design towards the ends, that is, gets bigger or smaller. They are mainly used when the installation space is limited in the axial direction. The specialty: the coils of conical compression
Metal springs are used in various designs. In addition to the cylindrical design, which is most commonly used, there is also the conical, barrel-shaped design or for special ones dynamic Compression spring applications the beehive spring. Each design has a
