Conical Springs: Features & Applications
Overview
A conical spring is a conical compression coil spring designed to prevent coil-to-coil contact during compression, allowing for a longer stroke. This type of spring is also known as a bamboo shoot spring.
Features
•Structure: A conical spring is a conical compression coil spring.
•Compression Characteristics: During compression, the larger diameter section deforms first, allowing greater energy absorption per unit volume.
•Applications: Commonly used in heavy vehicle suspensions or shock-absorbing springs. Additionally, conical springs are also used in gardening shears.
•Advantages: Since the coils do not compress against each other, a longer stroke can be achieved.
