F F T F F T F F Stresses in Helical Springs Spring Index C=D/d
Curvature Stress Inner part of spring is a stress concentration • under static loading, local yielding eliminates stress concentration, so use Ks • under dynamic loading, failure happens below Sy: use Ks for mean, Kw for alternating (see Chapter 4) Kw includes both the direct shear factor and the stress concentration factor
Spring Rate k=F/y
Helical Springs • Compression • Nomenclature • Stress • Deflection and Spring Constant • Static Design • Fatigue Design • Extension • Torsion
Static Spring Design • Inherently iterative • Some values must be set to calculate stresses, deflections, etc. • Truly Design • there is not one “correct” answer • must synthesize (a little bit) in addition to analyze
Material Properties • Sutultimate tensile strength • Figure 13-3 • Table 13-4 with Sut=Adb • Systorsional yield strength • Table 13-6 – a function of Sut and set
Spring/Material Treatments • Setting • overstress material in same direction as applied load • increase static load capacity 45-65% • increase energy storage by 100% • use Ks, not Kw (stress concentration relieved) • Load Reversal with Springs • Shot Peening • What type of failure would this be most effective against?

*maintain units (in. or mm) for A, b **see Example 13-4A on MathCad CD Fatigue Design:Wire Diameter as before, you can iterate to find d, or you can use an equation derived from relationships that we already know: use Table 13-2 to select standard d near calculated d • Two things to know: • shortcut to finding d • how to check frequency
Natural Frequency: Surge Surge == longitudinal resonance for fixed/fixed end conditions: (Hz) ideally, fn will be at least 13x more than fforcing… it should definitely be multiple times bigger • Two things to know: • shortcut to finding d • how to check frequency …see pages 814-815 for more

Helical Springs • Compression • Nomenclature • Stress • Deflection and Spring Constant • Static Design • Fatigue Design • Extension • Torsion
Extension Springs As before, 4 < C < 12 surge check is same as before However, no peening, no setting, no concern about buckling Lb=d(Na+1)
“preloading” Fi F=Fi+ky Difference 1: Initial Force force F deflection y
Difference 2: Initial Stress take initial stress as the average stress between these lines, then find Fi
Difference 3: Ends!: Bending standard end
Difference 3a: Ends: Torsion C2=2R2/d pick a value >4
Materials • Sut – Same • Sys, Sfw, Sew – same for body • Sys, Sfw, Sew – see Tables 13-10 and 13-11 for ends
Strategy similar to compression + end stresses - buckling
Helical Springs • Compression • Nomenclature • Stress • Deflection and Spring Constant • Static Design • Fatigue Design • Extension • Torsion
Torsion Springs • close-wound, always load to close Deflection & Spring Rate
For Fatigue – Slightly lower Outside Tensile Stress – Outside of Coil Stresses Compressive is Max – Use for Static – Inside of Coil
Materials see Tables 13-13 and 13-14, page 850 follow book on Sewb=Sew/0.577… for now
Strategy Select C, d • fit over pin (if there is one) • don’t exceed stresses M K
