Study on Helical Cylindrical Spring and Presentment of a New Design Method

Abstract:

Studied the main theory about helical cylindrical spring design, based on the existing theory,found the parameters that affect helical spring's stiffness, size, stroke, and also how much they effect the parameters. Draw the curve which can be a reference for helical cylindrical spring design, put forward a method of cylindrical helical spring design, which is according to the installation dimensions and working stroke and applicable to the design of cylindrical helical spring when is given workspace and stroke. Provided a new reference for the design of cylindrical helical spring, with important significance to engineering design.
