  2. Garage door - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garage_door

    The most common causes of injury from garage door systems include falling doors, pinch points, improperly adjusted opener force settings, and safety eyes, attempts at do-it-yourself repair without the proper knowledge or tools, and uncontrolled release of spring tension (on torsion spring systems). A garage door with a broken spring or the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torsion_spring

    Garage Door Sectional Torsion Spring A mousetrap powered by a helical torsion spring Video of a model torsion pendulum oscillating. A torsion spring is a spring that works by twisting its end along its axis; that is, a flexible elastic object that stores mechanical energy when it is twisted.

  4. Garter spring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garter_spring

    A garter spring inside a rubber seal. A garter spring is a coiled steel spring that is connected at each end to create a circular shape, and is used in oil seals, shaft seals, belt-driven motors, and electrical connectors. Compression garter springs exert outward radial forces, while extension garter springs exert inward radial forces.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Switch

    Movement of the switch control lever applies tension to a spring until a tipping point is reached, and the contacts suddenly snap open or closed as the spring tension is released. As the power being switched increases, other methods are used to minimize or prevent arc formation. A plasma is hot and will rise due to convection air currents. The ...

  6. Spring scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spring_scale

    A spring scale, spring balance or newton meter is a type of mechanical force gauge or weighing scale. It consists of a spring fixed at one end with a hook to attach an object at the other. [ 1 ] It works in accordance with Hooke's Law , which states that the force needed to extend or compress a spring by some distance scales linearly with ...

  7. Coil spring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coil_spring

    A tension coil spring A coil spring is a mechanical device that is typically used to store energy and subsequently release it, to absorb shock, or to maintain a force between contacting surfaces. They are made of an elastic material formed into the shape of a helix that returns to its natural length when unloaded.
