SGspringSpiralbolt

creates the shaft-axis combination for a commercial windup motor spring (80% fillin)
Description
Really usefull with 80% fillin. Ugly code for an commercial coil spring but very powerful for windup motors with free wheel. In general it is possible to print also a coil spring using SGspringSpiral. Nevertheless a commercial coil spring from spring steel (60Si2Mn) is much better. Try also ">> productcode spring"
In case of overload at 80% infill the slot works like a spring and will let the socket wrench jump. In case of 20% infill the bold will be destroyed

Syntax
[SGall,CPLN,CPLB,CPLS,CPLA]=SGspringSpiralbolt([Db,FA,LA,HS,"STL","ccw"])
Input Parameter
Db: | | [center height strength; default is [12 6 0.7] |
FA: | | [Wrench size; edges; axis diameter edges]; default is [6.4 6 4.5 0] |
LA: | | shaft-below-spring shaft-above-spring axis above upper shaft]; default is 10 5 25] |
HS: | | [x-size y-size hook-size distance hook-to center; default is [41 37 6 19]] for 35mm coil |
"STL": | | if used, the bolt is written as STL file |
"ccw": | | if used the housing is for ccw spring loading |
Output Parameter
SGall: | | {Bolt Housing Spring} print bolt with 80% infill |
CPLN: | | Inner Contour of Housing |
CPLB: | | Contour of Bolt to fix the hook |
CPLS: | | Contour of shaft to remove |
CPLA: | | contour of axis to remove |
