Design & Development of Helical Compression Spring Using Composite Material
Abstract: The paper embodies the manufacturing of a helical compression spring using composite material. The main motive for the use of composite material spring is its low density and greater stiffness to that of a steel spring. The composite material spring has greater stiffness to weight ratio as compared to the steel spring. We have manufactured carbon fibre and glass fibre spring using filament winding technique as less as possible economical …

Application of Full Factorial Design for Optimizing Variables of Hydraulic Plunger Spring
Abstract: Compression Helical Spring has various applications in automobile. Spring stores the energy of deformation due to applied load and remains its original position, shape or size after the load is removed. Springs are further classified as leaf springs, springs. The design parameters of spring manufacturing consists of spring rate, pitch, free length, wire diameter, flat/round ends, circular ends, number of turns etc. Various researchers have conduct observations on springs with …

Design and Development of Experimental Test Rig for Fatigue Life Estimation of Freewheel One-Way Clutch Used in Switchgear Applications at High Overrunning Speeds
Abstract: Freewheel one-way clutch (OWC) is a critical component used in industrial circuit breakers/switchgear to facilitate quick disengagement of the drive when an electrical circuit trips under overcurrent. The clutch acts as a safety device to endure high overrunning speeds and allows the drive shaft to rotate at normal operating speeds during each tripping cycle. The trip mechanism utilizes the stored potential energy of the helical compression spring, which is the …
