Constant force spring, or “clock” spring, is a roll of prestressed strip which exerts a nearly constant restraining force to resist uncoiling.
The force is constant because the change in the radius of curvature is constant.
Such applications as brush springs for motors, counterbalance springs for window sashes and carriage return springs for typewriters.
Constant force motor springs are used to drive mechanisms for timers, movie cameras and cable retractors.
Constant force spring also known as coil spring helix in a plane of the spring,
Spring is the material wound into a plane of the spiral of a spring, the spring is fixed at one end, the other end of the material after acting torque bending torque, bending elastic deformation, so the spring in its own plane to produce torsion.
The deformation Angle is proportional to the torque, and has a high torque and a torque distance of multiple angles, so it is used in the mechanism of long time work, and has the characteristics of not easy to fatigue, and its application is similar to torsion spring.
Use category general application, tape measure, automotive starting motor, storage box, etc.
Spring material: 55SiMnVB, 55SiMnMoV, 60CrMn, 60CrMnB, 302, 316 and other grades of flat steel belt.
