How to choose double torsion springs suppliers, what is double torsion springs

A torsion spring is a coil spring that stores and releases angular energy or holds a mechanism in place. They feature two legs extending from each end of the coil and are used in applications requiring torque or rotational force. This is accomplished by attaching the legs to external components. Then, as the elements rotate around the spring, the spring tries to push them back to their original position. Torsion springs come in a variety of different shapes and sizes, with different leg configurations and lengths, for a wide range of applications. Typical uses include automotive door handles, garage doors, clothespins, bulldog clips and hinges. In some cases, a single torsion spring cannot exert enough force. In these cases, a double torsion spring may be required.     What is a double torsion spring? As the name implies, a double torsion spring is characterized by two torsion spring coils joined at the center to form one spring. The two coils...

How to get the most out of your device with Variable Force Spring

If you're looking for ways to get the most out of your variable force spring, you've come to the right place! We will take you to understand. What is a variable force spring and what are its uses? A variable force spring is a device that allows a user to adjust the amount of force applied to a plunger. This type of spring is often used in medical devices, such as syringes, to ensure a consistent level of force is applied with each use. How do you maximize the performance of your variable force spring? There are a few things you can do to maximize the performance of your variable force spring. First, make sure that the spring is properly aligned with the moving parts it is supposed to be interacting with. Also, make sure that there is no debris or other obstructions in the way. Finally, make sure that the spring is properly lubricated. What are some of the...

Analysis on the causes of carbon brush fault of generator set

In recent years, several safety briefings have successively reported shutdown accidents caused by carbon brush or rotor collector ring failure of large generator units, resulting in great economic losses to the enterprise.Carbon brushes are motor brushes. Improper maintenance and use of the carbon brush of the generator set during operation will cause accident load reduction or even shutdown.        Factors leading to carbon brush fault      Electromagnetic factors : when reactive or excitation current is adjusted, the spark of carbon brush has obvious change. When the exciter commutates, the contact between the carbon brush and the commutator is not good, and the contact resistance is too large ; the uneven thickness of the oxide film of the rectifier or slip ring causes the unbalanced distribution of carbon brush current ; or sudden change of load and sudden short circuit lead to abnormal voltage distribution between commutators ; unit overload and imbalance ; carbon brush selection is unreasonable, carbon brush spacing...

How long can constant force spring be used ?

Constant force spring, also known as hair spring, is made of stainless steel strip. The force added to the spring determines the diameter, force and life of the spring. The action of constant force spring is similar to that of stretching ribbon. The spring stretches and rolls back, and the working part is tangent to the spring ' s own circle. As long as the diameter of the spring is certain, the force of the spring is constant. According to the application principle of constant force spring, constant force spring can be divided into linear constant force spring and rotational constant torque spring. When linear stretching force units are : kg, Newton, pounds, etc.     Then how long can the constant force bar be used ? The life of the constant force bar is limited, and the life requirement of the spring should be considered when designing the constant force bar. This step is important because it affects the...

Design steps of constant torque spring

Constant torque spring is a constant force spring with special force moving between two spools. The spring is stored on the storage spool and wound reversely on the output spool. When released, torque is obtained from the output spool when the spring returns to its natural curvature on the storage spool. The spring does not need to be connected to the storage spool. The spring can be installed in a cavity without storing the spool at all. However, friction will then be introduced and torque requirements will change. The torque generated by the constant torque spring will increase slightly after several revolutions. Constant torque, even negative torque, is also possible. Negative gradients of up to 50% can be achieved in some applications. As for the design of constant torque spring, when considering the use of constant torque spring, it is strongly recommended that you talk with Qianye engineers and study various design parameters. Some initial design calculations can be carried out...

7 tips for maximizing spring cycle life

Spring is a kind of mechanical part that uses elasticity to work. The parts made of elastic materials deform under the action of external force, and return to the original state after removing the external force. Also known as "spring". It is generally made of spring steel, and the types of springs are complex and diverse. The following tips to maximize the service life of the spring are also of great concern to you!     1. Lower Stress, The Better! In the early design stages of a spring, try designing with a larger wire diameter or a lower final load to allow more room for the spring to improve cycle life.     2. Shot Peening A shot peened spring can handle more stressful conditions than unpeened springs. This process can greatly improve performance and sustainability.     3. Keep Cool Spring relaxation or loss in spring load occurs faster in high temperature applications due to stress over time....

[Qianye precision]Physical design and recoil force of constant force spring

 In most types of springs, when the spring is compressed and then relaxed, the force applied is proportional to the distance the spring is stretched. Unlike ordinary springs, constant force springs do not comply with this rule. Due to the physical design of constant force spring, its return force remains constant. Therefore, constant force springs are useful in many applications that require consistent recoil.     The behavior of ordinary springs can be described by a mathematical equation called Hooke's law. The law points out that the force of the recoil spring in the recoil direction is equal to the distance between the spring displacement and the equilibrium point. In other words, it is how much the spring is elongated and multiplied by the mathematical constant, that is, the spring stiffness. The spring recoils in the direction opposite to the stretching direction. Because many elastic materials work in this way, Hooke's law has a wide range of applications in the field of physics.  ...

What is passivation? Does my product need it?

 "My new stainless steel product specification requires' passivation '. Do I need it?" Our answer is that you may not. That's why. Passivation is the process of protecting stainless steel from corrosion by adding an oxide layer on its outer surface. Although some stainless steel product specifications require passivation to reduce corrosion risk, most of them are unnecessary and expensive, and may damage some metal products, including flat bar springs, such as constant force, variable force and constant torque springs, all of which are uncommon products manufactured by Qianye precision.     The reason passivation is not a good idea for flat bar springs is because passivation involves the use of acids and harsh chemicals to initially clean the metal as part of the process. The geometry of these spring types means that many small cracks can form between the coil layers. The acid used in passivation can become trapped in these crevices. This resulted in longer-than-expected exposure of the...
