Design and Functionality of a Constant Force Compression Spring

извор:Киание Прецисион време:2023-5-31

Compression springs are mechanical devices that are widely used in various industries. They are designed to store energy by compressing when a force is applied to them and then releasing this energy when the force is removed. One particular type of compression spring that has gained popularity in recent years is the constant force compression spring. In this article, we will explore the design and functionality of this type of spring.

Design

The design of a constant force compression spring is based on the principle of a coil spring that has a constant diameter and a varying pitch. The pitch is the distance between each coil of the spring. In a constant force spring, the pitch is designed to decrease as the spring is compressed. This results in a linear increase in the force required to compress the spring.

The pitch of the spring is determined by the spring rate, which is the amount of force required to compress the spring a certain distance. The spring rate is calculated based on the material, wire diameter, and number of coils in the spring. The same factors also determine the maximum load capacity of the spring.

Functionality

A constant force compression spring operates by evenly distributing the load on the spring coils. This results in a consistent force output throughout the entire range of compression. As the spring is compressed, the coils unwind from the inner diameter and wind onto the outer diameter of the spring. This causes the pitch to decrease and the force to increase.

The constant force output of the spring is particularly useful in applications where a constant force is required regardless of the compression distance. This is in contrast to standard compression springs, which have a non-linear force output that varies with the compression distance.

 

 

 

Applications

The constant force compression spring has a wide range of applications in various industries. Some of the most common applications include:

1. Automotive industry – used in seat belt retractors, steering column locks, and suspension systems.

2. Medical industry – used in surgical instruments, orthopedic devices, and prosthetics.

3. Aerospace industry – used in landing gear systems, control surfaces, and actuation systems.

4. Industrial machinery – used in conveyors, presses, and automatic doors.

Conclusion

In conclusion, the constant force compression spring is a unique type of spring that offers a consistent force output throughout the entire range of compression. Its design is based on a coil spring with a varying pitch that decreases as the spring is compressed. This results in a linear increase in force output. The constant force compression spring has a wide range of applications in various industries, including automotive, medical, aerospace, and industrial machinery.
