Ultra-Compact Orthoplanar Spring via Euler-Spiral Flexures

Orthoplanar springs are single-component compliant mechanisms that can be fabricated from sheet material and undergo deflection orthogonal to the plane of the mechanism. They are useful in applications where spatial constraints are significant. An Euler spiral is a curve whose curvature is linearly...
