2. Coil spring - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coil_spring

   Metal coil springs are made by winding a wire around a shaped former – a cylinder is used to form cylindrical coil springs. Illustration of various arc springs and arc spring systems (systems consisting of inner and outer arc springs). Coil springs for vehicles are typically made of hardened steel. A machine called an auto-coiler takes spring ...

3. 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.

4. Arc spring - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arc_spring

   The arc spring (also known as - bow spring, curved spring, circular spring or "banana" spring) is a special form of coil spring which was originally developed for use in the dual-mass flywheel of internal combustion engine drive trains. The term "arc spring" is used to describe pre-curved or arc-shaped helical compression springs.

5. Spring (device) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spring_(device)

   In everyday use, the term most often refers to coil springs, but there are many different spring designs. Modern springs are typically manufactured from spring steel . An example of a non-metallic spring is the bow , made traditionally of flexible yew wood, which when drawn stores energy to propel an arrow .

6. End-face mechanical seal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/End-face_mechanical_seal

   By definition, the seal ring is the axially flexible member of the end-face mechanical seal. The design of the seal ring must allow for minimizing distortion and maximizing heat transfer while considering the secondary sealing element, drive mechanism, spring and ease of assembly.

7. Belleville washer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belleville_washer

   The downside, though, is weight, and they are severely travel limited compared to a conventional coil spring when free length is not an issue. A wave washer also acts as a spring, but wave washers of comparable size do not produce as much force as Belleville washers, nor can they be stacked in series.
