Flat coil spiral spring

The Flat coil spiral spring is made of metal sheet or wire through a special process, and its shape is similar to a flat disk or a conical disk. The main characteristics of this spring are that it has a high load capacity and a small amount of deformation, which can provide a large elasticity in a small space.

How it works:

  • The working principle of the Flat coil spiral spring is similar to that of the ordinary coil spring, which is based on the elastic deformation of the material to store and release energy. When the external force acts on the spring, the spring will deform, and the energy will be stored in the form of elastic potential energy. When the external force is removed, the spring will return to its original state and release the stored energy.

As a special form of helical spring, the Flat coil spiral spring has the following advantages:

  • Good elasticity: Flat coil spiral spring is made of elastic metal, has good elastic characteristics, when the external force, it can produce deformation, and quickly return to the original state after the external force disappears.
  • Strong load capacity: due to its structural characteristics, the Flat coil spiral spring can withstand a large load, which depends on the strength and cross-section shape of the material, usually made of high-strength metal materials, such as carbon steel, alloy steel, etc.
  • Simple structure: The structure of Flat coil spiral spring is relatively simple, there are no complex parts, and the manufacturing cost is relatively low, which makes it widely used in various application fields.
  • Easy to manufacture and use: The manufacturing process of Flat coil spiral spring is relatively simple, usually completed by a series of cold working processes. At the same time, it is also relatively convenient to use, and only needs to be installed in the corresponding device or machinery.
  • Small space occupancy: Compared with other types of springs, Flat coil spiral spring have advantages in occupying space, especially in occasions where compact design is required.

Flat coil spiral spring have a variety of specifications and models, including different diameters, thicknesses, turns, etc. The choice of these specifications and models depends on the specific application scenario and requirements.

Flat coil spiral spring have a variety of specifications and models, including the diameter, thickness, number of turns, etc., and the choice of these specifications and models depends on the specific application scenario and needs. For example, in the automotive suspension system, the specifications and models of the flat disc coil spring need to be accurately calculated and designed according to the weight of the vehicle, the speed of travel, road conditions and other factors.

flat spiral spring have the following advantages over other types of springs:

  • High bearing capacity: can provide greater elasticity in a small space;
  • Small deformation: When subjected to external force, the deformation is relatively small, which is conducive to maintaining the stability and accuracy of the equipment.
  • Long life: Due to the optimization of materials and processes, the service life of flat spiral spring is relatively long.

As an important mechanical elastic element, spiral flat spring has been widely used in various fields. Its unique shape and excellent performance make it an indispensable part of many mechanical equipment and systems. With the continuous progress of science and technology and the continuous optimization of the process, the performance and application range of the spiral flat spring will continue to expand and improve.
