Constant Torque Springs
Constant torque springs (or constant force springs) get their name because they are a spring with which the force of motion is at constant exertion. The tightly wound roll works in a linear movement and does not obey Hooke’s law (F=kX) but this allows it to constantly produce force throughout its deflection.
Constant torque springs have practically no limit on their extension speed or acceleration of use because as the spring is unrolled, the restoring force resides in the portion of the ribbon nearest the roll. Constant force springs can be fitted in a number of ways and extended partly or completely, giving a wide range of uses through the lack of limitations on extension speed and acceleration.
