<emphasis role="italic"><emphasis role="bold">DESIGN ANALYSIS OF FLAT REINFORCED-PLASTIC SPRINGS</emphasis></emphasis>A large shaker unit in a vibrating screen system is supported on a series of six steel leaf springs, each a cantilever 6 in (15.2 cm) wide by 0.125 in (3.18 mm) thick. How thick should a single epoxy-glass leaf spring of the same width be if it is to replace the composite steel spring? The cantilever is 30 in (76.2 cm) long with a 24-in (60.9-cm) free length; maximum deflection = 0.375 in (9.53 mm); axial load per spring = 2500 lb (11,120.6 N); safety factor = 8; E = 4.5 × 10 6
