Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to an elastic piece, in particular to a novel wave spring. Background Art

[0002] In the modern industrial field, wave springs are widely used in various precision machinery, automation equipment, automotive parts and electronic devices due to their unique structural advantages, such as compactness, high load-bearing capacity and good force distribution characteristics. Although traditional wave springs perform well in terms of space utilization and load bearing, in certain specific application scenarios, especially when frequent disassembly, maintenance or dynamic load environments are required, the friction, wear and installation stability between the end face and the contact parts become the key factors limiting their performance.

[0003] To solve the above problems, technicians have tried to add gaskets to both ends of the wave spring, hoping to reduce end face wear and improve installation stability by increasing contact area and improving friction interface. However, in the prior art, unfixed gaskets are prone to displacement during long-term use or in a vibrating environment, which not only affects the normal operation of the spring, but may also cause safety issues. At the same time, for application scenarios that require regular inspection or replacement of gaskets, there is a lack of a convenient disassembly and reinstallation mechanism, which increases the difficulty and cost of maintenance.

[0004] Therefore, developing a new structural design that can ensure that the gasket is firmly set on the end face of the wave spring and can be removed and replaced has become a technical challenge that needs to be solved urgently. The ideal solution should take into account the reliability of the gasket's fixation and the flexibility of operation, while maintaining or improving the performance indicators of the original wave spring to meet the growing market demand for high performance, long life and easy maintenance.

On the wave spring coils 11 at both ends of the spring body 1, and the gasket 2 is provided with positioning grooves 21 corresponding to the wave crests 111 of the adjacent wave spring coils 11, and the positioning grooves 21 are used for the wave crests 111 of the wave spring coils 11 to be arranged therein. In addition, a detachable fixing part is provided between the wave crests 111 of the wave spring coils 11 at both ends of the wave spring body 1 and the gasket 2. This structure can ensure that the gasket 2 is firmly set on the two end surfaces of the wave spring body 1 and is easy to disassemble, thereby meeting the growing market demand for high performance, long life and easy maintenance.

[0024] Specifically, as shown in the figure, in this embodiment, the detachable fixing member includes a columnar buckle 3, which is fixedly connected in the positioning groove 21 of the gasket 2, and the wave crests 111 of the wave spring rings 11 at both ends of the wave spring body 1 are provided with insertion holes 113, and the columnar buckle 3 includes a conical fastener 31 for passing through the insertion hole 113 and abutting against the wave spring ring 11, and in order to facilitate the conical fastener 31 to pass through the insertion hole 113, a middle slot 32 penetrating the conical fastener 31 is provided in the middle of the columnar buckle 3, and the middle slot 32 makes it easy for the columnar buckle 3 and the conical fastener 31 to deform toward the middle.
