11、cope This Part of BS 1726 provides guidance on the specification, tolerancing and testing of parallel sided helical torsion springs manufactured from round wire and bar. It applies to springs which may or may not be stress relieved after forming (hereinafter referred to as group A springs) and to sp

12、rings the material of which has undergone a structural change by heat treatment after forming (hereinafter referred to as group B springs). This standard gives two methods of specifying springs for general purposes and one method of testing springs. NOTE It is not recommended that torsion springs be

13、 loaded in the opposite direction to that of coiling. If this is necessary then discussions should take place between purchaser and supplier. 2 Normative references The following normative documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this British Stand

19、r 2002 4 Specifying springs for general purposes 4.1 General There are two methods by which a customer may specify a spring. In the first method the customer presents the supplier with a complete design and indicates what manufacturing processes, such as stress relieving, prestressing and shot peeni

20、ng, should be carried out. In this case the information should be supplied on Data Sheet 1 (Figure 1). When the customer does not have the information to complete Data Sheet 1, the customer should complete Data Sheet 2 (Figure 5). This is an application for a spring design in which the customer shou

21、ld specify the requirements from an operational point of view, giving such information as dimensional constraints, forcelength parameters, fatigue life, resistance to corrosion, in order that the supplier can produce a spring design to meet these requirements. When the spring supplier has prepared a

22、 design from the information on Data Sheet 2, the supplier will complete Data Sheet 1 and submit it to the customer for approval. 4.2 Method one (customer design) 4.2.1 Use of Data Sheet 1 Details of the required spring should be supplied on Data Sheet 1 (Figure 1) using standard nomenclature. Only

23、the essential dimensions and properties, for which the spring is to be inspected, should be toleranced, although other features may be included for information. n number of active coils in spring n change in number of active coils during loading N total number of coils in spring p pitch mm R min. mi

30、A detailed drawing is not necessary where the required spring conforms to the standard types, as shown in Figure 2. Only for those springs that require special leg geometry is a detailed drawing necessary. Figure 2 Form of legsBS 1726-3:2002 BSI 25 September 2002 5 Before completing Data Sheet 1, th

31、e designer should determine whether torque testing is a requirement. This decision affects tolerances for certain parameters (see 5.2 and 5.3), which boxes are to be completed, and the need or otherwise for a torque testing layout. If torque testing is a requirement then a test layout should be pres

32、ented either on, or as a supplement to, Data Sheet 1. Complete the data sheet in accordance with 4.2.9.1. The designer should be fully aware of the aforementioned guidelines and comply with the following. a) Specify only those particulars which are of functional importance by marking the appropriate

33、 squares and/or by entering the relevant values in each box. NOTE Box 8 is only to be completed if torque testing is required. b) Avoid redundant dimensioning. c) Refer to BS EN 13906-3 for the methods of calculation used to determine values for rate, torque, stress, etc. d) If space is insufficient

34、 in any box, details should be entered on a supplementary sheet and attention drawn to this fact in the appropriate box. 4.2.2 Material Complete box 1, by giving the material type and specification code quoting the relevant British Standard wherever possible. In cases where torsion springs are produ

35、ced from annealed material or are manufactured by a hot coiling method, they may require subsequent heat treatment (group B). If this is the case, specify the final hardness required and the process to be used, e.g. austemper, harden and temper. 4.2.3 Direction of coiling The action of the spring is

36、 dependent on the direction of coiling. Enter the direction of coiling in box 2. Figure 3 shows the convention for defining direction of coiling. 4.2.4 Form and lengths of legs Where the legs are of a standard form (see Figure 4), indicate the form in box 3 together with the appropriate lengths. Alt

37、ernatively, provide a detailed drawing on Data Sheet 1 or attach a supplementary drawing sheet. A fully dimensional drawing showing clearly the shape of the legs with their relationship to the body should be provided and attached to Data Sheet 1 or 2. In view of the wide variety of leg forms it is i

38、mpractical to give tolerances for these dimensions in this standard, but some guidelines are suggested in Clause 6. Figure 3 Direction of coilingBS 1726-3:2002 6 BSI 25 September 2002 4.2.5 Nominal dimensions The dimensions to be entered in box 4 are for information only unless a corresponding toler

39、ance is to be applied in box 7 and, in the case of relative leg orientation when torque testing is required, when entries should be made in box 8. 4.2.5.1 Outside diameter, D o Enter the outside diameter of the coil. 4.2.5.2 Mandrel diameter Enter the maximum diameter over which the spring is to ope

40、rate. This is also the size of mandrel that will be used for testing the spring if torque testing is a requirement. Due allowance should be made for a reduction in inside diameter during loading. 4.2.5.3 Free body length, L o Enter the free body length. Group B springs cannot generally be produced w

41、ith completely closed coils and account of this should be taken when stating free body length. 4.2.5.4 Number of coils, N Only enter the number of full coils. NOTE A fully dimensioned drawing showing clearly the shape of the legs with their relationship to the body should be provided and attached to

42、 data sheet 1 or 2. In view of the wide variety of leg forms it is impractical to give tolerances for these dimensions in this standard, but some guidelines are suggested in Clause 5 Figure 4 Conventions for describing relative leg orientationBS 1726-3:2002 BSI 25 September 2002 7 4.2.5.5 Relative l

43、eg orientation, o The convention for the description of relative leg orientation is directly related to the number of part coils in the spring. Examples of this are shown in Figure 4. 4.2.6 Thermal treatment 4.2.6.1 If stress relieving is required for group A springs, the duration and temperature sh

44、ould be given in box 5(a). 4.2.6.2 Heat treatment and hardness requirements for group B springs should be given in box 5(b). 4.2.7 Maximum deflection Indicate in box 6 the maximum elastic deflection, in revolutions and degrees, through which the legs have to move relative to each other. A degree of

45、prestressing is automatically present in a cold coiled torsion spring as a result of winding the coils. Consequently, it is rarely necessary to carry out a secondary prestressing operation. Springs that are hot coiled or hardened and tempered after coiling do not contain an element of prestress. If

46、prestressing is required this should be stated in box 11. 4.2.8 Dimensional tolerances The tolerances to be entered in box 7 will depend on whether torque testing is a requirement. 4.2.8.1 Outside diameter Refer to either 5.2.2 or 5.3.1 for the appropriate tolerance. 4.2.8.2 Free body length Refer t

47、o 5.2.3 for tolerance on free body length. This tolerance is only to be stated if torque testing is not required. 4.2.8.3 Leg length Refer to 5.4.4 for leg length tolerances. 4.2.8.4 Relative leg orientation Refer to 5.2.4 or 5.3.3 for the relative leg orientation tolerance. This is only to be enter

48、ed if torque testing is not required. 4.2.9 Properties 4.2.9.1 Torque testing Only complete box 8 if torque testing is required. However, to avoid over-dimensioning the spring it is necessary to be aware that no more than two parameters are needed to define torque performance. In addition to the det

49、ails in box 8 a torque testing layout should also be provided either on or as a supplement to Data Sheet 1. The example in Figure 6 indicates the information that should be included, in accordance with the following. a) Test angles and radii should be shown relative to the anchorage points and test mandrel, not relative to the spring (except in the case of nominal prewind from the nom
