[Qianye precision]Spring on motor car curtain

Time:2022-9-14

When taking the high-speed railway, everyone should like to look at the scenery outside the window. I don't know if you have paid attention to the curtains on the bullet train. When I take the bullet train, I often find that there is no buckle on the curtain slide rail on the bullet train, but I can still go up and down freely and won't fall or bounce back. That is to say, when I pull down 1 / 3, it will stop at 1 / 3, and when I pull down half, it will stop at half; If you want to put it away, just push it up and stop where you push it? It's different from the curtains I usually see at home. Isn't it affected by gravity? With this curiosity, let me show you that the bullet train should be a spring roller shutter. The elasticity of the spring roller shutter can adjust the rise and fall of the fabric within a certain range and can stop at any position. Gently pull down and let go. The fabric can bounce back to the top of the curtain leisurely and freely. The operation is light, the operation time is short, and the stay position is arbitrary. Compact structure, flexible and convenient operation. Because the addition of variable force spring makes the roller shutter achieve this effect, many variable force springs on the market can not achieve the effect that the force is changing in any section, so many electric roller blinds will add some components (deceleration device, damping device, this...

Congratulations on the return of Shenzhou 13 spacecraft

Time:2022-9-14

At about 10 am on the 16th, the "Shenzhou 13" manned spacecraft landed smoothly, and the three astronauts who had been on a business trip for half a year also returned safely, and the hearts of many people also fell to the ground. At the same time, Yang Liwei's voice that appeared in the live broadcast room also made many people's soul wear 2003. Recalling that when the "Shenzhou V" was successfully launched in 2003, the first batch of post-90s generation was just thirteen years old. "Shenzhou No. 5" may already be a term with a sense of age for the late-born children of Generation Z and Generation Alpha. Mankind's curiosity and desire to conquer space have never stopped. What does the vast universe look like with human naked eyes? Is it really romantic and exciting to be in space as outlined in science fiction films? Is space really desolate and silent?      Because outer space is full of all kinds of mysteries, human beings may be afraid to see the deep universe in outer space, especially when they float in outer space when they get out of the cabin. Therefore, when the astronauts leave the cabin, they are tied to the astronauts with an 18 meter long rope and connected with an oxygen pipe to provide life support for the astronauts. If the astronauts do not grasp and drift, they can use this rope to return to the space station. Fortunately, our Qianye precision has also made a small contribution to the national aerospace industry. We are mainly involved in...

Types of Springs in Medical Devices

Time:2022-9-14

Springs are integral components in the manufacture of many medical devices. Whether it’s for a surgical stapler or a medical monitor, the types of springs in medical devices are defined by a specific action or movement required for the application. Though relatively simple in its design, springs store the mechanical energy necessary for a wide range of medical devices, machinery, and equipment to function properly. Any type of surgical instrument, medical equipment or device that has a mechanism undoubtedly has a spring component. Spring material must be medical grade, and the design and function of any device must adhere to stringent regulatory requirements and guidelines as defined by the FDA. Booms, table and bed lifts, fluid control devices, wheelchairs, medical testing and monitoring equipment either fixed or mobile, MRI and X-ray machinery, dental x-ray with articulated arms, medical equipment drawer closing mechanisms, anesthetic infusion devices, sterilization valves, various implants, and shunt valves are all examples of medical devices that require springs to function. Manufacturers of medical devices and devices subsequently relied heavily on springs in a variety of applications. The medical industry relies on the same types of springs that most industries rely on—constant force springs, constant torsion springs, power springs. Constant force spring Constant force springs are coiled with stainless steel tape so that when coiled relative to being stretched, the spring relaxes in a low stress state. When it is unrolled, the restoring force comes mainly from the portion close to the unwinding spring coil. The resultant force is almost constant. The actuators that operate in the surgical...

Variable force spring in drug delivery device

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...

Design and manufacturing method of constant force spring

Time:2022-9-14

 Design and manufacture a complete set of constant force springs for a variety of applications in almost all industries, from medical care to aerospace and general household products. The constant force spring is different from the traditional spiral wound spring. They are made of pre tensioned high-yield metal strips (usually stainless steel) rather than wires. Constant force springs are classified as "tension springs". When winding, the metal strip resists uncoiling with nearly constant resistance. When extended, the internal stress of the metal resists any load force at a nearly constant rate. Once the spring extends to a length of 1.25 times its diameter, it reaches full load and produces a nearly constant force. According to the size of the spring and the load it supports, the fatigue life cycle of the constant force spring is between 2500 and 1000000 times.     Constant force springs are commonly used in automotive engineering, aerospace engineering, medical and retail. Some common applications are: Cable retractor, motor, spacecraft, fitness equipment, door closer, hose retriever, nuclear magnetic resonance scanner, X-ray machine, point of sale display, toys, furniture accessories, retractable tape measure or dog line, retractable vacuum cleaner line, etc.     If you choose a constant force spring for an application, you must first consider several factors. Material selection is important, as is the thickness and width of the metal strip. The most commonly used metal is grade 301 stainless steel because it can make consistent high-quality and strong constant force springs. Other materials are available, such as high carbon steel, Inconel, etc., which may...

Design steps of constant torque spring

Time:2022-9-15

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 according to the following eight steps. 1. Select materials Most of the springs we produce are made of type 301 stainless steel. This material is readily available and predictable. Thousands of industry engineers can assist in selecting standard sizes to speed up the process. We also use high carbon steel, Inconel and Elgiloy in various designs as needed. 2. Life expectancy This is one of the most important considerations because the life of constant torque springs is very predictable. Practical is important because it is estimated that high life cycle requirements may lead to larger and more expensive designs. Of...

7 tips for maximizing spring cycle life

Time:2022-9-15

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. Reducing operating temperatures can reduce the chances of spring relaxation.     4. Using The Right Material Material selection of a spring is key to good spring design. Consult with a Lee Spring Engineer to determine if upgrading to a higher tensile range or quality grade material can improve cycle life for a particular application.     5. Minimize Shock Loading Shock loading occurs when a load is applied with sufficient speed for the first coils of the spring to take up more of the load than what would be calculated for a static situation. The more times a spring...
