The winch torsion spring, or torsion spring, is a specially designed helical spring that can withstand torsion deformation. The working part is tightly wound into a spiral shape, while the end forms a twisting arm of various shapes for connection and transmission of torque. Compared with other types of coil springs, winch torsion springs have higher torque bearing capacity and more stable performance.

The torque spring of the winch uses the lever principle to accumulate force by twisting or rotating the elastic material which is soft and tough, so that the launched object or the driving part has certain mechanical energy. When an external force acts on the twisted arm, the spring twists and deforms and stores energy. When the external force disappears, the spring releases energy and drives the component back to its original position. And drive the winch drum or other transmission components to rotate, so as to achieve the lifting, traction or movement of goods and other functions.

Winch Torsion Spring

The winch torsion spring is usually divided into two types: single and double body. The single torsion spring consists of a spiral spring and one or more torsion arms, while the double body torsion spring consists of two interconnected spiral spring bodies.

The structural design of winch torsion spring needs to consider many factors, including spring material, wire diameter, outside diameter, inside diameter, torsion force, maximum deflection and end form. These factors together determine the performance and service life of the spring.

Application and function of winch torque spring:

  • Application: Winch torsion spring is widely used in various winch equipment, such as hydraulic winch, electric winch and so on. They are usually used to drive the drum or transmission components of the winch to achieve functions such as lifting, hauling or moving the goods.
  • Function: The main function of the winch torque spring is to store and release energy, as well as to provide a stable driving force. They ensure stable performance and operational reliability of the winch under all working conditions.

Maintenance and maintenance of winch torque spring:

  • Regular inspection: Check the torque spring of the winch regularly, including checking the deformation of the spring, wear and tightening of the connecting parts. Make sure the spring is in good working condition.
  • Cleaning and lubrication: keep the winch torque spring clean and lubricated to prevent dust, dirt and other impurities into the spring resulting in wear or damage. At the same time, lubrication can also reduce the friction and resistance of the spring during the movement, and improve the service life.
  • Avoid overloading: Avoid overloading the winch torque spring, overloading will lead to excessive deformation and wear of the spring, thereby shortening the service life.
  • Replacement and maintenance: If the winch torque spring is found to be seriously deformed, worn or damaged, it should be replaced or repaired in time. Ensure the normal operation and safety of the winch.

Winch torque spring is an important part of winch, which has the function of storing and releasing energy and providing stable driving force. In the process of use, it is necessary to carry out regular inspection, cleaning and lubrication as well as the necessary replacement and maintenance work to ensure the normal work and safety of the winch.
