Springs

Springs are mechanical devices that store and release energy, allowing them to absorb shock, resist force, and return to their original shape after being compressed, stretched, or twisted. There are different types of springs available, each designed to serve a specific purpose.

Compression Spring: Compression springs are designed to resist compression and can be found in faucets, valves, and other plumbing fixtures where there is a need for a tight seal. Compression springs are used in equipment such as refrigerators, ovens, and deep fryers. For example, they can be used in the hinges of oven doors to keep them securely closed, ensuring that heat is retained inside the oven.

The design of a compression spring consists of a cylindrical shape with an open-coil structure. When force is applied to the spring, it compresses, and when the force is removed, it returns to its original shape. The strength of the spring is determined by its wire diameter, coil diameter, and the number of coils it contains.

Door Spring: Door springs are typically used to control the opening and closing of doors, ensuring that they remain securely closed when not in use. Door springs can be found in equipment such as refrigerators, freezers, and storage cabinets. For example, they can be used in the hinges of a refrigerator door to keep it closed, ensuring that the cold air is retained inside the refrigerator.

The design of a door spring typically consists of a coiled wire that is mounted on a hinge. When the door is opened, the spring stretches, and when it is released, it returns to its original position, closing the door. Door springs are available in different strengths, depending on the weight and size of the door.
