Table of contents
No headersThe compression spring is a helical spring with permanent clearance between active coils capable of carrying the outer opposing forces actuating in its axis.
Dimensions
d | wire diameter [mm, in] |
D | mean spring diameter [mm, in] |
outside spring diameter [mm, in] | |
inside spring diameter [mm, in] | |
H | working deflection [mm, in] |
t | pitch of active coils in free state [mm, in] |
a | space between active coils in free state [mm, in] |
spring deflection [mm, in] | |
spring length [mm, in] | |
working force exerted by the spring [N, lb] | |
deformation energy [J, ft lb] | |
x | index responding with the spring state |
Coiling
- Right (usually)
- Left (must be notified in words)
States
- Free: the spring is not loaded (index 0)
- Pre loaded: smallest working load is applied to the spring (index 1)
- Fully loaded: maximum working load is applied to the spring (index 8)
- Limit: the spring is depressed up to coil touching (index 9)
