Abstract (en)

The spring (10) consists of a spiral plate (11) with terminating curve (13) which is made in one piece with a central collar (12). The central collar has an axial slot (14) which allows it to be press fitted on to a shaft and the terminating curve may be furnished with a fastening eye. The spring is fabricated by techniques such as galvanic micromoulding, metal projection and cutting by liquid under pressure.
