A flat spring is a spring in general made of flat spring materials by pressing.
Most of them are approximately 1 mm or less in thickness, and can be found in familiar places.
There are various types, shapes, and uses. Typical examples include spring springs, clips, and various types of molded flat spring. In many cases, springs that utilize the reaction force caused by the bending and deformation of plates are used.
They are often used to hold or grip an object by reaction force.
Flat springs are used in the following applications.
Used in tweezers, ballpoint pen clips, etc.
The restoring force of the leaf spring clamps the object.
Used in bow bodies, diving boards, ski boards, snowboards, etc.
The restoring force of the leaf spring is used.
They are used as suspensions for transportation equipment, and are also utilized for off-road vehicles that run on large uneven surfaces.
The restorative force of the leaf spring dampens impact.
The principle of flat springs can be modeled on the "beam calculation" studied in Mechanics of Materials.
When one side of a beam is fixed and stress is applied to the other side, the beam deflects and stress is generated.
For more specific calculation methods, JIS B 2713 (Design formulas and specifications for flat springs) provides descriptions for various types of flat springs.
In practice, there are cases where it is difficult to obtain the results using the classical solution method described above, and efforts to enhance the design system by utilizing finite element analysis (FEM analysis), etc., are generally spreading.
In such cases, the solution obtained is not consistent depending on the material properties, church conditions, and analysis method (non-linear) to be used for the analysis, so a method that suits the purpose is necessary.
In addition, the accuracy of the spring constant and load of an actual flat springs are affected by the processing accuracy of the spring.
Therefore, considering the low material elongation that affects the bend formability, materials whose hardness is tempered by cold working or heat treatment are often used.
