Values for calculation

$d$ $\mathrm{mm}$
$r$ $\mathrm{mm}$
$L$ $\mathrm{mm}$
$E$ $\mathrm{GPa}$
$φ$ $\mathrm{°}$
$σ_{adm}$ $\mathrm{MPa}$

Calculation

Spring deflection

$$f=r\cdot φ\cdot\cfrac{π}{180}$$

Tensile stress

$$σ=\cfrac{E\cdot 10^3\cdot d\cdot f}{2\cdot r\cdot L}$$

$$σ\le σ_{adm}$$

Force

$$F=\cfrac{π\cdot d^3}{32\cdot r}\cdot σ$$

Safety factor

$$S_F=\cfrac{σ_{adm}}{σ}$$

Spring stiffness

$$k=\cfrac{F}{f\cdot 10^{-3}}$$
