BAR-SHAPED COMPONENT LOADED IN TORSION

A torsion spring may be formed as a bar spring or helical spring comprising a spring wire of fiber composite material. In some examples, the torsion spring comprises a number of layers of fiber reinforcement, which are impregnated with a matrix material. The layers may comprise tensile-loaded fibers...

Summary:A torsion spring may be formed as a bar spring or helical spring comprising a spring wire of fiber composite material. In some examples, the torsion spring comprises a number of layers of fiber reinforcement, which are impregnated with a matrix material. The layers may comprise tensile-loaded fibers and compression-loaded fibers. Groups of layers of the same loading direction may exist and, seen from an inside to an outside, the group stiffness of at least two groups may differ. Likewise, methods for making such torsion springs of fiber composite material are disclosed.
