If the range of use of the compression spring is extended to the extension area, will the spring constant of the compression spring be maintained even in the extension area?
Spring Newbie, thank you for posting!!!
Is it correct that the compression coil spring is extended to the extension region when it is used in both the compressive and extension directions from the free state? In the case of compression and tension, it is necessary to design with consideration of stress evaluation. In the case of compression, the range is 30-70% of the solid deflection, and in the case of extension, it is in the range of plastic deformation (elasticity).
In this case, the change in the spring constant is considered to be slight and almost constant.
