EN 13298:2003 (E)104 Classification of the productHelical springs covered by this standard are divided into two categories (see Table 2). The category of the springhas to be defined in the technical specification. The classification is the responsibility of the mechanical systemdesigner.Table 2 — Classification of the springsCategory ACategory BAxial and transversal stiffness and/orbowing definedOnly axial stiffness defined5 Requirements5.1 Service conditionsThe service conditions shall be defined by the customer to enable the suspension designer and the springmanufacturer to provide an effective and safe product (service conditions, climatic conditions, environmentalconditions, etc.).5.2 Functional requirements5.2.1 GeneralThe following product requirements shall be defined by the suspension designer (see Table 3).SIST EN 13298:2004

EN 13298:2003 (E)125.2.2.2 Reference lengthThe reference length is the length LA at load condition ”ready to run” FA (i.e. tare load), unless otherwise stated inthe technical specification. On this length a tolerance is applied to ensure a defined height of the total suspensionsystem.In default a tolerance of 1 % of the nominal value of LA is applied.5.2.3 Mechanical conditions5.2.3.1 Axial stiffnessThe axial stiffness is defined in the Z-axis¾ either by the value KS (gradient of the force-deflection line) (see Figures 2 and 3);vuuvsLLFFK--=¾ or by a force-deflection diagram (see Figure 4).NOTEIt is permitted to define the axial flexibility instead of stiffness, where flexibility is the inverse of the stiffness (1/KS).For single load case conditions (e.g. FA) the stiffness can be defined as shown in Figure 2.The definition of a stiffness value over a force range (e.g. FU to FV) (see Figure 3) shall take into account any non-linearity of the stiffness value or increase in the permitted tolerance.The definition of a force-deflection diagram with envelope-curves shall also take into account the stiffening effect bythe end coil geometry. On springs with other than constant inclination of windings a distinct increase of stiffnessmay be realised.Tolerances for the stiffness shall be defined. Unless a different tolerance is indicated in the technical specification,the static axial stiffness shall be within ± 5 %. It is known that the tolerance for the springs as defined in 3.3 isrelatively high with a small number of coils (less than 5 coils). A recognised method to determine the tolerance as afunction of the number of coils is by the formula as shown below:The requirements shall be specified. The different definitions of the axial stiffness are depicted in Figures 2 to 4.100505,0××±=nRAin %SIST EN 13298:2004
EN 13298:2003 (E)13Figure 2 — Axial stiffness at force FAFigure 3 — Axial stiffness between FU and FVIn case of a stiffness defined by a force displacement curve, theenvelope-curves (tolerances) are derived from the definition (nominal)curve, for a given force, by a displacement variation equal to thechosen tolerance.In the technical specification, the envelope curves shall be definedbetween FU and FV forces, where FU < FA < FV £ FB.Figure 4 — Force-deflection diagramSIST EN 13298:2004
EN 13298:2003 (E)145.2.3.2 Transverse stiffnessThis item shall be specified only if a defined behaviour in the transverse direction is essential for the operation ofthe suspension system.The transverse stiffness is defined in the X-Y-plane by the valueKQrtjj=at the axial force Fj
(for Qj and rj , see Table 1)This characteristic shall be measured in a plane which is parallel to the support bases (force surface) of the spring.It is defined by the relation between a force variation and the corresponding displacement variation for a givenstatic axial force Fj, applied to the spring.NOTEThe transverse stiffness is not an independent value but it is cross related to the axial stiffness and other springcharacteristics and shall be defined with this in mind.The technical specification shall define the nominal value of the transverse static stiffness Kt (with its tolerance)together with relative axial force Fj to be taken into account.In addition to that, the direction in which is defined the transverse stiffness of the spring shall be specified.Unless a different tolerance is indicated in the technical specification, the transverse static stiffness shall lie within atolerance of ± 15 % versus the specified value.It is possible to define the transverse static flexibility instead of the transverse static stiffness, whereby flexibility isthe inversion of stiffness (1/Kt ).5.2.3.3 Free transverse deflection or bowingThis item shall be specified only if a defined behaviour of the free transverse deflection is essential for the operationof the suspension system.The value and direction of free deflection depend on the axial force applied and exhibit similar scatter to thetransverse stiffness value.The direction of bowing is defined by the AB straight line (see Figure 5) which is the projection to the straight linebetween the two loading surface centres of the spring.The direction of bowing of a spring submitted to a static axial force FCO shall be marked on the spring by apermanently visible system. The FC0 value shall be defined in the technical specification. The position of markingtowards the spring centre shall indicate the direction of bowing.Any limitation of the bowing force FC, when the spring undergoes an axial Force FC0 shall be stipulated in thetechnical specification. Due to the requirements in connection with the installation of the spring on the vehicle (towhich it belongs) it can be necessary to specify the FC force figure on the spring. If the case arises, thisrequirement shall be stipulated in the technical specification under the specific marking conditions (see clause 9).The maximum permissible angle qC between bowing directions of a spring which undergoes an axial force FC0 onthe one hand, and an axial force FC1 on the other hand (see example, Figure 5) shall be defined in the technicalspecification, together with the values of FC0 and FC1.SIST EN 13298:2004

vehicle to which it belongs, (see definitions in 3.2).Figure 5 — Bowing of a spring (example)While the spring is submitted to a static axial force FC0, the value of the bowing force FC shall lie within the limitsindicated in the technical specification. Unless a different value is indicated in the technical specification, the angleqC between the bowing directions of a spring submitted to an axial force FC0 on one hand and to an axial force FC1on the other hand shall be £ 30°.5.2.3.4 EnduranceTh
