7.3.3.1. Belleville Washer Design

This method is taken from  (NASA TM X-, ) and is a relatively simple method.

Belleville springs are used where space requirements dictate a short range of motion.

The design depends on the following parameters:

M, C1 and C2 are constants which can be calculated from the formulas below:

The deflection load formula using these constants is:

The stress formula is as follows:

In the stress formula, it is possible for the term

to become negative when δ is large.

 When this occurs the term inside the bracket should be changed to read

Note that the load deflection curve for Belleville washers is not linear.

This is shown in Figure 7.3.3&#;1.

Figure 7.3.3&#;1: Load Deflection Characteristics of a 0.40in Thick Washer for Various h/t Ratios. (NASA TM X-, )

Belleville washers can be stacked to obtain the desired load-deflection characteristics; the accepted methods are shown in the figure below:

As the number of washers increases so does the friction in the stacks. This may not be uniform and can result in springs which are erratic and difficult to predict.

Should we lube the Belleville washers or the Spring inside ...

Hi big tin
I use imperial sizing die WAX an invisible smear,its one of the best lubes there is ,i shoot a lot of centre fire rifle and i use it for lubing my cases and its main use is for necking down cases to form smaller cases/necks ,its one of the most slippiest substance out there
And ive never ever had a case stuck in a resizing die since ive bees using it,not expesive ab £ 7in the uk
