Constant Force Springs from Lee Spring offer an excellent mechanism for applications where a constant load is required. Some of the many applications of constant force springs are in counterbalances, ...
Forces may change the shape of an object. An elastic object, such as a spring, stores elastic potential energy when stretched or squashed. The extension of an elastic object is directly proportional ...
The spring constant, k, is a measure of the stiffness of the spring. It is different for different springs and materials. The larger the spring constant, the stiffer the spring and the more difficult ...
