Definitions
- the present invention relates to a modified cross-section coil spring, and more particularly to a modified cross-section coil spring obtained by coiling a coil wire having a modified cross section and then applying a fatigue strength improvement treatment.
- a coil spring is made of a coil wire having a circular cross section.
- the surface stress generated on the circumference of the cross section of the coil wire becomes larger on the inner peripheral side than on the outer peripheral side of the coil. This is because the surface stress generated on the cross-sectional circumference of the coil wire is generated under the influence of the shearing force in addition to the influence (torsional force) that the coil wire is curved. For this reason, in this type of coil spring, cracks that cause breakage are likely to occur on the inner circumference side of the coil where the surface stress increases.
- the cross-section of the coil wire is an odd-shaped cross section that is close to an oval cross section.
- a coil spring is known (for example, see Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 59-190528).
- this irregular cross-section coil spring has an oval portion 81 on the inner peripheral side of the coil and a flat portion 82 on the outer peripheral side of the coil in the longitudinal cross section along the coil axial direction of the coil wire 80.
- the vertical cross-sectional outline of the coil wire 80 is composed of a curved portion (CBADE) and a straight portion (CD).
- shaft among the longitudinal cross-sectional outlines of the coil strand 80 is made into the innermost end A of a deformed cross-section coil spring.
- the “coil inner peripheral side” means the coil inner peripheral side (center side of the coil spring) in the longitudinal section along the coil axial direction of the coil wire unless otherwise specified.
- the “circumferential side” is the coil inner peripheral side (center side of the coil spring) in the longitudinal section along the coil axis direction of the coil wire,
- this modified cross-section coil spring by providing the flat portion 82 at the outermost part of the coil spring, the stress sharing when the axial load is applied can be increased on the outer periphery side of the coil, and as a result, the axial load is applied. It is described that the surface stress can be equalized on the cross-sectional circumference of the coil wire 80.
- a coil spring (including a modified cross-section spring) is generally subjected to a fatigue strength improving process such as a shot peening process in order to improve the fatigue strength.
- the coil spring has a three-dimensional structure (coil wire overlapping condition, etc.) that is easy to shoot shot peening (for example, near the innermost end A shown in FIG. 8) and difficult to process (for example, FIG. 8 and the vicinity of the B end or the E end) from the part on the way from the innermost end A to the B end or the E end.
- the degree of improvement in the fatigue strength of the coil spring by shot peening or the like cannot be equivalent in the circumferential direction of the cross section of the coil wire.
- Fig. 9 shows the distribution of the fatigue strength ratio on the inner peripheral side of the coil (from the A end to the vicinity of the B end) when a general coil spring is subjected to a fatigue strength reduction process such as shot peening.
- the position (A end) where the deviation angle ⁇ is 0 ° is the closest position to the central axis of the coil.
- the B end is at a position where the declination ⁇ is 90 °
- the E end is at a position where the declination ⁇ is 270 °.
- the fatigue strength ratio is the ratio of the fatigue strength at the position where the deflection angle is each angle when the fatigue strength at the position (A end) where the deflection angle ⁇ is 0 ° is 1.0 (100%). It is.
- the fatigue strength improvement treatment when applied to a general coil spring, the fatigue strength ratio is changed from the A side (innermost end) to the B end (or E end) side of the coil spring. It decreases toward. That is, in the circumferential direction of the coil strand, the shot peening process becomes more difficult from the portion closest to the coil central axis (A end side, near 0 °) toward the B end or E end along the circumferential direction of the cross section. As the degree increases, the degree of improvement in fatigue strength decreases. This also applies to the conventional modified cross-section coil spring.
- the bias of the surface stress distribution when an axial load is applied is improved by making the vertical cross-sectional outline (cross-sectional shape) of the coil wire 80 a predetermined abnormal shape.
- the fatigue strength after the fatigue crack strength improvement treatment such as shot peening treatment is not taken into consideration.
- the iso-stress design cross-sectional outline in the conventional modified cross-section coil spring cannot be an iso-fatigue strength cross-section line. That is, in the circumferential direction of the cross section of the coil wire 80, there is a portion with low fatigue strength on the inner circumferential side of the coil.
- the conventional irregular cross-section coil is designed with a vertical cross-sectional outline of the coil wire 80 with a small number of drawing parameters. If the number of drawing parameters is small, the design cannot be made while finely adjusting the profile of the longitudinal section. For this reason, in the conventional modified cross-section coil, even if an attempt is made to finely adjust the vertical cross-sectional contour line in consideration of the circumferential distribution of the degree of fatigue strength improvement by the fatigue strength improvement processing, it cannot sufficiently cope with it.

Abstract
Description
本明細書において、「コイル内周側」とは、特に断らない限り、コイル素線のコイル軸方向に沿う縦断面におけるコイル内周側(コイルばねの中心側)のことであり、「コイル内周側」とは、特に断らない限り、コイル素線のコイル軸方向に沿う縦断面におけるコイル内周側(コイルばねの中心側)のことであり、
この異形断面コイルばねでは、コイルばねの最外側部に扁平部82を設けることで、軸方向荷重が作用したときの応力分担をコイル外周側で大きくすることができ、その結果軸方向荷重が作用したときの表面応力をコイル素線80の断面周上において均等化できると、記載されている。
x=(LR-Δb)cosnxrθ+Δb …(1)
y=SRsinnyrθ …(2)
(ただし、前記(1)式及び(2)式において、θは前記極座標系の偏角であり、かつ、0°≦θ<90°、270°≦θ<360°、0.7≦nxr≦0.9、0.8≦nyr≦1.0、0.1SR≦Δb≦0.3SRである。)
(2)前記直交座標系において、外側x軸係数をnxl、外側y軸係数をnylとしたとき、前記縦断面輪郭線のコイル外周側部分が下記(3)式及び(4)式で表されることが好ましい。
x=-{(LR-Δb)|cosnxlθ|-Δb} …(3)
y=SRsinnylθ …(4)
(ただし、前記(3)式及び(4)式において、90°≦θ<270°、0.8≦nxl≦1.6、0.3≦nyl≦0.6であり、Δbは前記(1)式及び(2)式におけるΔbの値に等しい。)
一方、図9にも示したように、一般のコイルばねでは、ショット ピーニング等の疲労強度改善処理を実施した場合、コイル素線のコイル内周側における疲労強度割合は、偏角θが約10°以上になると減少し、特に偏角θが10°から45°付近の間では、疲労強度割合が急激に減少している。この結果、図2に示すように、従来の異形断面コイルばねでは、表面応力を加味した疲労強度割合の低下は、偏角θが10°付近から60°付近までの部分に集中しやすく、特に偏角θが10°付近から45°までの範囲には急激な低下傾向が見られる(図2に点線で示す)。
本実施例の異形断面コイルばねのコイル素線1の 縦断面輪郭線(断面形状)10は、図1に示す極座標系において、前記(1)式~(4)式で表される。
実施例1~6では、前記(1)式~(4)式において、外側x軸係数nxl、外側y軸係数nyl及び中心オフセット係数Δbを固定し、内側x軸係数nxr、内側y軸係数nyrを表1に示すように変化させて、異形断面コイルばねのコイル素線1の(内周側部分101)の 表面応力分布をパソコンでシミュレーションした(図4に示す)。なお、図4は、実施例1~6のコイル素線1の縦断面輪郭線10(内周側部分101)における、シミュレーションされた表面応力分布を示す。この表面応力分布は、コイリング加工した時点(ショットピーニング処理前)でのコイル素線1についてのものである。
以下、比較例として、内側x軸係数nxr、内側y軸係数nyrを所定範囲外に設定した場合に、これらがコイル素線の断面周方向に沿った表面応力の分布に及ぼす影響について検討した。
実施例7~9は、基本的に実施例1と同様であり、更に内側x軸係数nxr、内側y軸係数nyrを0.75、1.0にそれぞれ固定し、中心オフセット係数Δbの設定を変更した例である。
以下、Δbを所定範囲外に設定してシミュレーションを行った比較例について説明する。
実施例10~18では、前記(1)式~(4)式において、内側x軸係数nxr、内側y軸係数nyr及び中心オフセット係数Δbを固定し、外側x軸係数nxl、外側y軸係数nylを表5に示すように変化させて、異形断面コイルばねの表面応力分布をパソコンでシミュレーションした(図7に示す)。なお、図7は、実施例10~18の異形断面コイルばねの縦断面輪郭線10の外周側部分102における、シミュレーションされた表面応力 分布を示す。
