ANNULARLY RESILIENT, CONICALLY SHAPED COMPONENT

摘要

An annularly resilient component used as a cup spring or the like has inner and outer walls of conical configuration and an annular inner and outer rim. A tab extends generally radially from one of the rims. A wall portion disposed generally at the transitional area between the tab and the rim extends generally transversely of the tab, such wall portion forming an annular continuation of the rim, thereby providing a reduction in stress concentration and prolonging the usable life of such component.
