The special-shaped spring is a kind of spring with different shapes, different functions and special uses. In recent years, the development and demand of the industry have increased the requirements for various springs (special-shaped springs), and the complexity has also increased.
Generally speaking, special-shaped springs are wound by high-precision advanced spring equipment. The spring material is mainly spring strip or spring plate. The process is processed on special equipment or general-purpose pressure processing machine tools using corresponding molds. Because the material thickness of leaf spring, wave spring and light spring is relatively thin, they are widely used in industry.
In the design process of the spring, the optimization design is also introduced. The structure of the spring is relatively simple, the function is simple, and the parameter variables affecting the structure and performance are saved. Therefore, the designer used the analytical method, the graphic method or the graphic analysis method to seek the better design scheme very early, and achieved certain results. With the development of the calculation technology, the optimization design of the nonlinear programming by using the computer has achieved results.
One difference between the special-shaped spring and the traditional spring is that the spring itself is irregular and has no obvious working shape compared with the compression spring, torsion spring and tension spring. The special-shaped spring has bending and a large number of complicated angle designs, and the manufacturing and processing technology also has very high requirements for the equipment.
