Design and Function of Twin Spring or Motor Brush Spring
Design and Function of Twin Spring or Motor Brush Spring
 One of the most unique spring designs is called a twin spring.  Its name is derived from the characteristic of having two springs formed from the same strip of stainless steel material.  These custom springs are intended to work together, in unison, doubling the force of a single spring.  Twin springs are a version of a constant force spring, providing constant force throughout the travel length.     The area between the two coils is referred to as the saddle area, which is formed to fit over the part or component that is being pushed.  The saddle can also be cut-out to provide access to the component and is best designed when assigned a dimension to fit over that specific part.  It can be located at different heights between the coils for ease of assembly or as an indicator for direction.     Twin springs are used in a wide range of applications where available space is limited and a relatively strong...
Small spring has great effect
Small spring has great effect
The reason why the world we live in is so orderly is that there are precise links between large and small objects. So many things in life are crucial. Whether they are large or small, they are indispensable to our life, but some small parts in life are unknown, but there are tens of thousands of them. The spring I know is also one of them. It always exists in a position that people can't see and does their own thing silently. Moreover, he exists everywhere in life, even if we don't know it. Today, I will explain the functions of these small springs. Spring is a kind of mechanical part that uses elasticity to work. Generally made of spring steel. Although the spring is small, as a general basic part, it has large quantity, wide range and complex varieties. It is used to control the movement of mechanical parts, mitigate impact or vibration, store energy, measure the size of...

[Qianye Precision]Advantages of constant force spring
 The unique quality of constant force spring makes it a perfect balance for heavy moving parts. If your equipment requires springs, consider constant force springs. This is a kind of tension spring. They do not obey Hooke's law, so their force remains unchanged, even when deflected. Constant force spring can be used in almost all kinds of products. Some of the largest consumers are medical device manufacturers. Machines, dental X-ray equipment - and almost any articulated and heavy equipment - are equipped with constant force springs. Smaller constant force springs for medical devices are also part of syringes and drug injectors. We can also find a large number of constant force springs in daily necessities, such as retractable key chain, retractable dog rope, vacuum cleaner, thread winder, safety belt, window balance system, indoor shutter and monitor lifting and so on. Due to the flat force curve of constant force spring, constant force spring is suitable for applications requiring stable motion range and constant load. To...
Design and manufacturing method of constant force spring
Design and manufacturing method of constant force spring
 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:...
3 types of springs and some common applications
3 types of springs and some common applications
Smooth Range of Motion: Constant Force Springs Constant force springs provide a smooth range of motion and constant load, meaning they do not follow Hooke’s law. They are uniform in length and coiled into a permanent diameter. Constant force springs are frequently used for applications that require counterbalancing, including windows. In fact, window balance springs are one of our most successful products. In addition, the springs we manufacture are often designed for medical devices and aerospace applications. Their smooth range and steady motion control enhance instrument articulation.   High Torque with Little Rotation: Spiral Torsion Springs Spiral torsion springs are another popular product we manufacture.These springs are ideal for applications that require high torque and less than 360 degrees of rotation. (270 degrees maximum is preferred). Spiral torsion springs are commonly used in applications that require a “return to center” function, like a medical instrument joystick. They’re also ideal for electric motors and automotive applications. If your application requires this “return to center” function, developing a...
Design cordless curtain springs
Design cordless curtain springs
There are many types of curtains on the market today, such as Venetian blinds, Roman blinds and honeycomb blinds. When the curtains are lowered, the windows can be shaded to reduce light entering the house and improve privacy. Generally speaking, curtains are provided with control ropes, which can drive the bottom rail of the curtain to rise or fall. In particular, the bottom rail is raised by a roller take-up hanger, and the hanger can be extended from the roller so that the bottom rail can be lowered.        However, the problem that the control cord may restrain children has been noted, so a cordless curtain has been developed. This cordless curtain can raise and lower the bottom rail by means of a coil spring box. Coil spring boxes used in window blinds usually consist of multiple springs that provide torsion to maintain the bottom rail at the desired height. However, the assembly of such a coil spring...

What factors will directly affect the use of power springs?

Time:2022-9-14

A power 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 "winding spring". The production process of the clockwork spring manufacturer can be completed at one time from simple procedures to complex procedures, and it is equipped with online testing equipment to produce high and stable products. Generally made of spring steel. The types of clockwork springs are complex and diverse. According to the shape, there are mainly spiral clockwork springs, clockwork springs, plate clockwork springs, special-shaped clockwork springs, etc.    Power Spring Application:    The application category is generally used in clocks, recording instruments, motor toys, tape measures, car starter     motors, storage wire boxes, etc.     Power spring classification:     The plane power springs are classified according to whether they are in contact with the adjacent working parts:        ① non-contact plane power springs, ② contact plane power springs.     The fixing methods of the fixed end of the plane power spring are:     ① hinged fixing, ② pin fixing, ③ v-shaped fixing, ④ lining fixing.     1. The main factor affecting the strength of the spring is its material. The higher the yield degree of the material, the higher the fatigue strength of the spring. Therefore, to ensure the fatigue strength of the spring, the material of the spring should be studied first.    2. The quality of the spring surface has a great...

 The constant force spring is made of stainless steel strip. The high-strength steel strip is shaped by specific spring production equipment. When it is straightened by external force, the spring will naturally roll back and produce elastic force. However, when our goal is achieved, it can return to the starting point specified by us after displacement. Constant force spring has the characteristic of maintaining constant force in long stroke, and can be applied to products requiring linear movement such as round-trip, sliding, stretching, homing, balancing or labor-saving. For example, we go to the common fan lifting, store display shelves, tape measure, lifting doors and windows and computer monitor lifting. So if you choose a constant force spring suitable for your product, the design has the following 8 steps. 1. Material selection - most flat steel springs produced by Qianye precision are made of type 301 stainless steel. This material is the most readily available and predictable. Thousands of industry engineers can assist in selecting standard sizes to speed up the process. 2. Estimated life cycle - the life of constant force spring is very predictable, making it one of the most important considerations. Being realistic is important because it is estimated that a longer life cycle will lead to larger and more expensive designs. Underestimating the life cycle of constant force springs may lead to premature failure. Common life cycles range from 4000 to about 25000 life cycles. If a longer life cycle is required, the tolerance of increasing spring diameter and force due to low stress levels and small differences in materials...
 How long can constant force spring be used ?
How long can constant force spring be used ?

Time:2022-9-15

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 things behind the design ; improper consideration may lead the design to a wrong direction ; properly considered, the design will be easier to succeed. It is very important to determine the number of spring stretching before designing the constant force bar. Spring stretching times explanation : a refers to the spring in any part of a stretch and roll back process. Since the constant force spring provides force through the bending of the spring, any part used belongs to the spring body. In other words, a spring with a total design length of 25 ’ uses the length of...

Time:2022-9-14

No matter how small the shower room is, it is also recommended that you install a bath stool directly on the wall, which is stable and convenient! I've seen a social news before. It's about a pregnant woman who took a bath at home and slipped and had an accident. To be honest, no one wants this to happen, but because many detailed problems were not paid attention to during the decoration, it led to a series of problems! In fact, when decorating the shower room, we must take safety measures. Not only families with elderly, children and pregnant women, but also ordinary people need a safe environment for bathing. After all, the shower room is a place with large water consumption. It doesn't pay to fall and hurt! The first step of safety measures is to choose anti-skid bricks on the ground. Secondly, for families with elderly, children and pregnant women, it is best to install a bathing stool. Don't think the bath stool takes up space. It has many functions! And only one square meter of space can also be installed, directly installed on the wall, stable and convenient! At ordinary times, the bath is standing and washing. It is inevitable that there will be tired and uncomfortable after a long time. If there is a place in the shower room where you can sit and rest, it is absolutely convenient and comfortable. You can not only sit and rest, but also sit in the bath. For example, when rubbing your legs, you don't have to bend down...

In the process of skin incision suture in surgery, chest surgery, abdominal surgery and skin grafting in the burn department, manual suture was generally used in the past, but now skin stapler is generally used. The appearance of skin stapler can be regarded as a reform of traditional suture methods and an important reform of modern suture technology, which has given surgeons a good help. In clinical medicine, skin stapler is also listed as one of the medical products worth promoting. Compared with traditional suture surgery, the stapler can be used at a very fast speed, which can greatly reduce the operation time, easy operation and reduce the labor intensity of the medical staff, because the medical staff themselves are a busy group. The stapling eye of the skin stapler is close and orderly, painless nail removal and beautiful appearance. There are few side effects and surgical complications, so the skin stapler is very popular in the market and medical staff. The principle of skin suture device is actually very simple, it is a baffle plate and a push nail plate, nail box inside a spring. In fact, similar to stapler, each press is a suture, the molding nail out of the front gap, the rest of the nail box is pushed forward by the spring behind, you can continue the next suture, until the completion of the suture, completely loosen the handle, and then the stapler out of the skin. The spring inside the stapler is used with a constant force spring, so the constant force spring in line...
 Application of constant torque spring in 3D printer
Application of constant torque spring in 3D printer

Time:2022-9-14

3D printing, also known as three-dimensional printing, is a kind of rapid prototyping technology. It uses adhesive materials such as powdered metal or plastic to construct zero objects through multi-layer printing layer by layer. Mold making, industrial design is used to build models, and is now developing into product manufacturing, forming "direct digital manufacturing". Some high-value applications (such as hips or teeth, or aircraft parts) already have printed parts. The constant torque spring is applied to the 3D printer. This innovative case is a spring motor drive system. Like the common design, it is impossible for a spring to achieve the torque we need. As you can see we are using three constant torque springs in one mechanism with an output drum in the middle connecting the three springs. Therefore, it can generate three times the output torque of only one spring, and this design can achieve the purpose of providing maximum torque in a limited space. This connection method is easier to assemble than using screw connections.        When it comes to spring design, design engineers must consider many factors. These factors include not only part function and mechanism design, but also detailed material selection, part connection installation method and size. It's all about manufacturability. Feasibility analysis is required to ensure the functionality meets the customer's needs.        From the initial design stage of the spring set to production and final assembly, Qianye can save customers product development time, find optimized solutions beyond your expectations, no manufacturability constraints in product design, and the best product...
 Constant force spring responsible for pushing nails in a nail gun
Constant force spring responsible for pushing nails in a nail gun

Time:2022-9-14

At present, the nail gun is frequently used in the construction industry or wood industry. The nail gun is a commonly used hand-held tool with a wide variety of types. According to the power source nail gun can be divided into pneumatic and electric two categories. When users are working, they often need to change different tools in their hands. Therefore, in order to facilitate the work, a hook is set up in the nail gun, so that users can hang the nail gun in the waist at work. When using the nail gun, you should pay attention not to face people, because the power of this product is still relatively strong and the risk is relatively high. If you are not careful, you will hurt others, and the consequences are still serious. You should also take protective measures when using it yourself. The driving device of the nail gun uses a constant force spring, because the constant force spring has the characteristic of maintaining constant force in a long stroke. In a very small device space, it can achieve a very high elastic output, which is suitable for the nail gun. It is often seen that the nail gun on the market has such a problem. The nail gun can't hit the nail because the constant force spring pushing the nail has no tension, so it can't hit the nail naturally. Therefore, in the selection of constant force spring, we should choose the spring manufacturer with qualified quality. The mechanical equipment and production process used by each spring manufacturer are different. Different equipment and production...
 Design steps of constant torque spring
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...
