With the leaf spring or flat spring clamped on one side, the maximum bending stress, spring force, spring deflection (deflection), spring leaf thickness and spring rate can be calculated as follows. The bending stress increases linearly with the leaf spring
Non-positive connection with spring force
What are frictional connections? One frictional connection through the use of spring force. During the entire period of operation, a force field is built up between the connection partners by means of a suitable preload. Examples of this include pressure
Spring washers and clamping washers
What are spring washers and clamping washers? Spring washers and clamping washers are just as much part of the securing elements as snap rings, spring cotters, fokern needles or flat springs. They can be found in many different designs. As
Made-to-measure screw locking
Screw connections that loosen unnoticed can cause serious accidents and disasters. So that are suitable Screw locks in the form of individually corrugated Spring washers and finger spring washers to maintain a frictional connection very important. It is true that
Lock washers for shafts and axles
The function of lock washers is to fix and limit components in the axial direction on shafts, axles or within bores. Such frictional connection assumes a normal force on the surfaces to be connected. If the opposing force caused by
