What factors will directly affect the use of power springs?

source:Qianye Precision time:2022-9-14

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 influence on the fatigue strength of the spring. The cracks and scars caused by the spring material in the production process of defect-free manufacturing are often the root cause of the fracture of the spring due to fatigue.

    3. The second is the production size of the spring. The larger the size of the material, the higher the possibility of causing defects. Therefore, the relevant spring manufacturers should pay attention to the spring production size when calculating the fatigue strength of the spring.

   4. The influence of the use and storage environment of the spring, the influence of the corrosive medium on the fatigue of the spring is very important. When the spring is used in the corrosive medium, the pitting corrosion on the surface or the corrosion of the surface grain boundary becomes the cause of the spring. The source of fatigue; at the same time, when spring manufacturers are producing, they should also pay attention to the various influences caused by springs working in different environments.
