(SPRING)
SPRINGS

What is Springs?
A spring is an metal wire that has quite good elastic property by which it
compress extends or rotates as the force is applied on the spring
components. A spring mechanism can exert pressure, rotational force or
pulling in some ways. Spring mechanism involvement gives product an
advantage for different application purpose.

The most common spring types


include:
Compression Springs.
Extension Springs.
Torsion Springs.
Constant Force Springs.
Belleville Springs.
Drawbar Springs.
Volute Springs.
Garter Springs.

TYPES OF SPRINGS
SPRINGS

These are the types of mechanical


spring uses very often in
the valves, suspension & even in ball
point pens on the shaft of round hole
where some force to be applied for
spring action. Mechanical spring may
be used to achieve the different
configuration.
SPRINGS

Torsion spring basically work by


placing a torsion spring over the shaft
then fastened their one side legs or
fixed the end with help of plate or the
pin to ensure the other end can rotate
& gives you the rotational force.
Torsion spring rotational force
increase with the rotation in radial
direction.
SPRINGS

They are the wire types mechanical spring


used in garage door, pull levers etc. or any
place where pulling force comes into play (
to be applied).

Extension spring are equipped with a hook


provision that purpose is to place them on
to the shaft over a pin or through hole.
Hook provision can be modified as per the
requirement of application. They can also
be comes without hook instead of that
come with threaded screw or bolt into the
internal diameter of spring so that one end
can be fastened with the help of bolting.
SPRINGS

These are the mechanical rounded shape


formed spring. Basically these are coil
spring form in continuous circle. Garter
spring are often used in rubber seal while
oil spring & spring belt requires the
provision non slip belting (slip resistant).
These spring gives an outside force
exerted ( in radial direction) when
expanding the circular spring the force will
generate and contracted spring in position
to back to original diameter as earlier.
That’s why garter spring are greater when
they are to used in rubber seals or
urethane seals.
