- Mass ready-made toolings in stock(For tail details), greatly save your time and cost.
- Special techniques like high-temperature baking and oil-soaking make our springs more lubricated and anti-rust.
Constant Force Spring Mounting
There are two ways of mounting constant force springs, one is drum mounting, the spring is fixed to the axis, and when the tension is forced in the spring, the drum axis will be rotating with the spring.
Another mounting way is cavity mounting like the illustration below, normally, it will add some lubricating oil in it, which can decrease the friction during the operational process.

Constant Force Spring Design of Multiple Load
Constant force spring can provide tension force, we can get ideal tensile force across the different constant force spring designs of mounting.
Multiply load can supply stronger force, there are three types of multiply load ways as the illustration below, coiled in tandem, back to back parallel, multi-layer laminated load.
Multiply loaded constant force springs can supply stronger tension force in the same distance, it is usually applied in lifting, window balance, etc.
Tandem
back to back parallel

Constant Force Spring Mechanism
According to the mechanism of constant force spring, which normally provides tension, counterbalance, retrieving funcitons. We adopt these functions in our applications.
Different applications determine the different mounting and multiply load styles, you’d better inquiry our expert before putting it into practice.
Partner with professional manufacturing master know-how will make the work more fluently.
Constant Force Spring Applications
Constant force springs are wildly used in various fields, such as position-adjusting in the home appliance like monitor, electric fan, pushing in shelf pusher, position movement in medical tables. Constant force window balance spring is used in the cordless shades.

FAQ
Based on the special constant force tension feature, constant force springs are wildly used in many applications like point of purchase displays, home appliances, medical devices, windows, etc.
Based on the special constant force tension feature, constant force springs need well mechanical performance and high fatigue.
We can manufacture constant force springs by using high yield stainless steel, high carbon steel, and Inconel.
Constant force springs belong to flat coil springs, they are made of steel strip, which be shaped by the coil machine and tightly wrapped around the shaft.
Constant force springs feature constant retractable tension force, which make it widly used in smooth counterbalancing, tensioning, retracting places.
Normally, there are 2 ways of mounting a constant force spring as mentioned above, one is drum mounting, Another mounting way is cavity mounting.
How to choose one depending on your product, it involves many factors like load force, case room, width, thickness, length, the diameter of coil springs and so on.
You’d better inquiry our expert before deploying it, we will supply you the most suitable design based on our decade’s experience.
Want to know how does a constant force spring work, We must know the constant force spring mechanism first.
Constant force spring is made of flat stainless steel strip or carbon steel strip, it will be winded when through the springs forming machine, once the extort extension force in the terminal end, it will generate a counterbalance retractable effect.
People utilize this counterbalance retractable feature to the different applications, such as home appliances up and down function, auto facing in the front of shelf pusher.
For one constant force spring, We can use the equation to get the tension force of constant force spring directly, the equation is as below:
Tension Force =19400*thickness³*width/6.6/diameter²/1.2 (mm).
If apply the multiple loads, we need to get the summation of each spring’s tension force.
Example: there are 3 constant force springs for retractable function, they are Spring1, Spring2, Spring3, the tension force is as below:
Spring1 Tension = 19400*thickness³*width/6.6/diameter²/1.2 (mm)
Spring2 Tension = 19400*thickness³*width/6.6/diameter²/1.2 (mm)
Spring3 Tension = 19400*thickness³*width/6.6/diameter²/1.2 (mm)
Tension Force = Spring1 Tension + Spring2 Tension + Spring3 Tension
First of all, we need to confirm the raw material, different material has a different making technique. Normally, we use the high yield stainless steel strip or carbon steel strip.
Secondly, different width of springs determines which springs forming machine we will use, there are many types of spring forming machines in YongSheng, usually we take the 35mm as the critical point, above it we will use the special large forming machine, if not, we will apply the normal size forming machines.
Thirdly, some special techniques are necessary during springs making like the oil-soaking and high-temperature baking, it will make the springs more lubricating and anti-rust.
All of the above, actually it is a very long way to make the springs by mass production, YongSheng can supply all kinds of flat coil springs with high quality & competitive prices.
Life-cycle of the springs depends on many factors, such as the spring’s thickness, width, raw materials, load force, work temperature, and so on.
Normally, the larger springs, bigger load force, higher work temperature will have a shorter life-cycle.
Yes, we can, Heavy-duty constant force spring usually is used in big equipment for retractable function.
YongSheng can produce various of big constant force spring with our special springs forming equipment, the width of heavy-duty springs is up to 50mm, thickness up to 0.6mm, Our springs products go through a complete testing process before shipment, different environment and application will have the different requirements, inquiry our expert with your application right now!
Constant load spring means it has a constant load force, with this feature, sometimes we also called it constant force spring.
In other filed, we also called some kind steel flat spring as the constant load spring, coz it generates the constant load, like the loaded truck filed.
YongSheng can produces small constant force springs, the minimum dimension of width is up to 1.5mm, the minimum dimension of thickness is up to 0.06mm.
Normally, We use the small constant force springs based on the limited room, and the small constant force springs will have less tension than large. Therefore, we can use the laminated mounting or multiple loads of assembly to get bigger tension.
large constant force springs are similar to the heavy-duty constant force springs.
Yongsheng can manufacture all kinds of stainless steel large constant force springs. The maximum width dimension of large constant force spring is up to 50mm, the maximum thickness is up to 0.6mm.
Large constant force springs can generate bigger tension than small constant force springs, we increase the tension through laminate mounting or multiply load of assembly.
