In this paper, we improved the reliability of a spiral spring in semi-auto sliding mechanism of mobile phones. In an semi-auto opening mechanism of mobile phone, the spring must have sufficient reliability such that the spring force does not reduce under a half of initial value after 100000 operations. Since the inner space of the mechanism is very small, it is difficult to design a spring having sufficient reliability. We designed a spiral spring satisfying such conditions and analyzed its elastic performances using finite element method.

In this paper, two different electromagnetic energy harvesters using bulk micromachined silicon spiral springs and Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) packaging technique have been fabricated, characterized, and compared to generate electrical energy from ultra-low ambient vibrations under 0.3g. The proposed energy harvesters were comprised of a highly miniaturized Neodymium Iron Boron (NdFeB) magnet, silicon spiral spring, multi-turned copper coil, and PDMS housing in order to improve the electrical output powers and reduce their sizes/volumes. When an external vibration moves directly the magnet mounted as a seismic mass at the center of the spiral spring, the mechanical energy of the moving mass is transformed to electrical energy through the 183 turns of solenoid copper coils. The silicon spiral springs were applied to generate high electrical output power by maximizing the deflection of the movable mass at the low level vibrations. The fabricated energy harvesters using these two different spiral springs exhibited the resonant frequencies of 36Hz and 63Hz and the optimal load resistances of $99{\Omega}$ and $55{\Omega}$, respectively. In particular, the energy harvester using the spiral spring with two links exhibited much better linearity characteristics than the one with four links. It generated $29.02{\mu}W$ of output power and 107.3mV of load voltage at the vibration acceleration of 0.3g. It also exhibited power density and normalized power density of $48.37{\mu}W{\cdot}cm-3$ and $537.41{\mu}W{\cdot}cm-3{\cdot}g-2$, respectively. The total volume of the fabricated energy harvesters was $1cm{\times}1cm{\times}0.6cm$ (height).

The development of the solar and the wind power energy is necessary since the future alternative energies should have no pollution and no limitation. currently power generation system of MW scale has been developed, but it still has a few faults that its operation depends on with the weather condition. In order to solve these existing problems. combined generation system of photovoltaic(400W) and wind power generation system(400W) was suggested. It combines wind power and solar energy to have the supporting effect from each other. However. since the combined generation system cannot always generate stable output with ever-changing weather condition, power compensation device that uses elastic energy of spiral spring was added. In an experiment. when output of system gets lower than 12V(charging voltage), additional power was from the stored rotational energy of spiral spring.

This paper is concerned with the analysis of natural vibration characteristics of an accelerometer used in power plant. The malfunction of the accelerometer in high-temperature environment may produce erroneous sensor signal and the erroneous signal may cause unpredicted accidents in power plants. Hence, the accelerometer which endures high temperature needs to be developed. In this study, the natural vibration characteristics of the accelerometer were investigated prior to the development of the high-temperature accelerometer. The main mechanical part of the accelerometer is a spiral spring. In this study, the dynamic characteristics of the spiral spring were investigated first by using a commercial finite element code. Numerical results show that the thickness of the spiral spring affects the dynamic characteristics. Numerical investigation on the effect of temperature on the performance of the accelerometer will follow.

It is well known that mobile phones have been a indispensable communication tool for human life. The spiral springs are used as the main component of the semi-auto sliding mechanism of mobile phones. The characteristic of axiomatic approach is scientific and analytical method, and axiomatic approach is different from other design methods in offering the systematic method at an early stage of design. The axiomatic approach could determine design parameter and arrange the order of design and estimate the optimum design in good order. In axiomatic approach, the composition is divided by customer requirement, functional requirement, design parameter, and design matrix in large portion. This paper presents design in sliding mechanism for mobile phones by finite element method and axiomatic design.

Photovoltaic energy and wind energy are highly dependent on the season, time and extremely intermittent energy sources. Because of these reasons, in view of the reliability the photovoltaic and the wind power generation system have many problems(energy conversion, energy storage, load control etc.) comparing with conventional power plant. In order to solve these existing problems, hybrid generation system composed of photovoltaic(500W) and wind power system(400W) was suggested But, hybrid generation system cannot always generate stable output due to the varying weather condition So, the auxiliary power compensation unit that uses elastic energy of spiral spring was added to hybrid generation system for the present study. It was partly confirmed that hybrid generation system was generated a stable outputs by spiral spring was continuously provided to load.

본 연구에서는 새로운 후방요추간체의 고정재로서 뼈에 나사를 삽입고정하지 않고 후방요추간체에 걸어 시술하는 형상기억합금을 이용한 오메가형 스프링 유동적 고정재의 기계적 변형특성을 평가하였다. 사용된 오메가와형 스프링 고정재에 대해 인장, 압축, 동적피로시험을 실시하였다. 또한, 기존에 시판 중인 후방요추간체에 나사를 삽입하여 시술되는 나선형 스프링 유동적 고정재와 함께 유한요소방법을 이용하여 허리를 굽힐 때 가해지는 굽힘에 대한 변형해석을 실시하였다. 오메가형 스프링 고정재의 양단 고리중심간 거리가 60 mm인 시편의 평균 극한 인장하중은 3981.7 N, 평균 극한 압축하중은 535.6 N으로 나타났으며, 5 Hz의 반복주기로 10 N/1N의 압축피로하중을 가할 경우 5백만회 반복하는 동안 파단 없이 8~9 mm의 압축변위가 발생하였다. FEA 결과에서 보면 오메가형 스프링 고정재가 나선형 스프링 고정재보다 허리 굽힘에 대해 유연한 변형특성을 보였다.
