Constant force springs are specialized springs that are used to provide a constant force over a range of motion. This makes them ideal for use in a variety of applications, such as automotive or robotic systems.under we will take a closer look at what constant force springs are and how they can be used. What are constant force springs? A constant force spring is a type of spring that produces a constant force over its entire range of deflection. This type of spring is often used in applications where a stable force is required, such as in the actuation of a valve. Constant force springs don’t have much in common, either in form or function, with standard helically wound springs. For starters, constant force springs are formed from pre-tensioned metal strips, rather than wire. At their most basic level, however, constant force springs do exactly what other springs do. That is, they conform to Hooke’s Law. Hooke’s Law essentially states...

Design steps of constant torque spring
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...
[Qianye precision]Physical design and recoil force of constant force spring
[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.  ...

 How long can the spring last?
How long can the spring last?

Time:2022-9-14

How long can stainless steel springs last? This is a common problem. You might think that as long as it's not stretched beyond the point of recovery, the spring will always return to its original shape. A spring is a mechanical part that uses elasticity to work. Parts made of elastic materials deform under the action of external force, and return to their original shape after the external force is removed. Also known as "spring". Generally made of spring steel, the types of springs are complex and diverse. However, spring life depends on many factors.         1. Spring design Are they properly designed for their intended purpose? Many are not, errors in spring design are the main cause of premature spring failure. When choosing a spring, remember to pay attention to what it is for and how it will be used. Is spring strength more important or elasticity? If you're not sure, experts can help guide your decision.       2. Quality of manufacturing materials       The life of the spring is also related to the quality and modulus of elasticity of the materials used in its manufacture. Make sure your springs are made of the best quality material for the desired application. For example, stainless steel springs have high strength, low stress relaxation, corrosion resistance and heat resistance. However, their performance decreases at sub-zero temperatures.       3. Application pressure and environmental conditions       If the force applied is greater than the spring is designed to withstand, fracture may occur....

Application of springs in industrial doors

Time:2022-9-3

  The constant force spring of the industrial door mainly plays a balancing role and reduces the burden on the motor. The force of the spring is equivalent to the force of the industrial door, which is the most ideal configuration state. If the spring force is too large or too small, it will affect the operation of the industrial door. In severe cases, safety accidents may occur and endanger others.        Constant force springs are often used to provide balance to products, so what is balance?        Constant force springs are most useful in applications that require consistent recoil. Ordinary springs behave according to a mathematical equation called Hooke's law. Hooke's law states that the force of a recoil spring in the direction of recoil is equal to the distance the spring is displaced from equilibrium. Simply put, we look at how far the spring is stretched - multiplied by a mathematical constant, the rate of the spring. The recoil direction of the spring is opposite to the stretch direction.        Hooke's Law does not affect constant force springs because their recoil remains constant throughout their range of motion. Their unique design consists of a thin, coiled steel strip that rests when fully coiled. Constant force springs are loaded when they are partially or fully deployed. When released, the spring springs back, pulling the extended ribbon back and rolling up properly. Since the recoil force is mainly obtained closest to the take-up roll, a constant force is maintained. A constant force spring can be...

When you walk into your office building on your way to work every day, or into your local bank, or any commercial facility, you may open a heavy glass door. When you cross the threshold, the door closes behind you, and you don't think about it. However, the heavy glass door was probably closed by a constant force spring. Constant force springs are widely used in daily applications. From door closers to rope and hose retractors, to sports equipment, toys, motors, etc., constant force springs exert force at an amazing high frequency and consistency. Let's take a closer look at the basic physics behind the constant force spring. In the 17th century, the British physicist Robert Hooke proposed a formula for force and elasticity, which is now called Hooke's law. Hooke's law states that the force (f) required to stretch or compress a spring for a distance (x) varies linearly in proportion to that distance. The formula is f=kx, where k is a constant and represents the stiffness of the spring.   Constant force springs in terms of actual spring performance, Hooke's law is nominal. In the equation, the distance X that the spring moves is a relatively small number. Finally, any elastomer that is stretched or compressed beyond the stress limit of its material composition will show signs of deformation. Therefore, the force properties that depend on the consistent shape and tension state will change in the deformation state. Ideally,constant force springs will exert a consistent force over a given range of motion, repeating without changing. In fact, constant force springs, like all elastomers, are limited...

Time:2022-9-14

Devices for automatically delivering drugs, such as automatic syringes, are known as convenient and safe means of protection for patients to manage different drugs themselves. For safety reasons, many devices for delivering drugs include covers and other devices that protect users before and after use, such as injection needles. Different devices for transporting drugs are different in their overall design settings. They all have a mechanism for automatically transferring the contents of pre filled and pre filled containers, and there is no need to manually force the contents of the containers into the patient through the transmission components, namely needles and nozzles. Automatic delivery mechanisms in devices used to deliver drugs usually include compression coil springs. The challenge in the design of such springs is to balance the need for sufficient force at the end of the stroke and the need for less force during storage that will overload other parts of the device (when the spring is fully compressed).   The problems caused by conventional coil springs in drug delivery devices can be overcome by variable force springs. A novel device for delivering drugs, which includes an elastic member (60), a driving mechanism (50), a holding mechanism (40) and a starting mechanism, the driving mechanism has one end connected to a stop and a second end operably connected to the elastic member, the holding mechanism is used to loosely hold the driving mechanism in the first position, where in the elastic member has accumulated energy, The starting mechanism is operably connected to the holding mechanism for releasing the driving mechanism...
