Disc springs

Disc springs (disc-shaped springs) are conical elastic components in the shape of a disc, intended to act under axial loading. They are designed to transmit forces in a compact space with relatively small deflections.

The functional characteristics of these springs follow from their geometry; deformation of the disc under axial compression generates a restoring force that depends on the shape and arrangement of the spring. Design parameters and the order of components in the assembly affect the resulting mechanical properties.

Disc springs are used in technical implementations in industrial applications where a combination of compactness and high load capacity in a limited space is required. The choice of a specific design depends on the required mechanical parameters and the structural solution of the equipment.
