本标准规定了确保碟形弹簧正常工作的一系列要求。这些包括与材料和制造过程有关的要求，尺寸和弹簧力的公差，以及这种弹簧的应力松弛和疲劳寿命作为应力的函数。 这里规定的所有要求都是最低要求。 本标准涵盖三维碟形弹簧系列。 注意在本标准中，碟形弹簧分为三组和三维系列。基于制造过程的分类是基于材料厚度的函数。碟形弹簧到尺寸系列的分配由h0/t比率决定

This standard specifies the set of requirements that ensure the correct functioning of disc spring. These include requirements relating to the materials and manufacturing process, tolerances on dimensions and spring forces, and also the permissible relaxation and fatigue life of such springs as a function of stress. All requirements specified here are minimum requirements. This standard covers three dimensional series of disc springs. NOTE In this standard, disc springs are divided into three groups and three dimensional series. Classification into groups is based on the manufacturing process, which is a function of the material thickness. The assignment of disc springs to dimensional series is governed by the h0 /t ratio.
