This paper describes that study which construct a theoretic and experimental algorithm in order to make the automatic correction system od detent spring, and when load for correction pressed at spring, it can be found elastic and plastic deformation quantities by Finite Element Analysis. As a result, it has been found that the simulation datas are in good agreement with experimental results.

A thin metal plate such as detent spring has the shape deformation due to the phenomenon of spring back after press machining and heat treatment process. This requires the correction of spring shape and force in final inspection process. To do correction of the shape deformation the impact force is manually applied to the bended part of detent spring after measuring the shape deformation and spring force. To develop the automatic spring force correction system, applied force of occurring plastic deformation must be derived from the experimental method. But frequent change of spring shape and material makes it difficult to accomplish the experimental method to be applied. This paper describes the analytical method for detent spring force correction system is to be substituted for the experimental method. FEM(Finite Element Method) is used to find the boundary value between elastic and plastic deformation in the analytical method. To confirm the validity of the analytical method, the result of two methods is compared each other at various applied force conditions. It shows that the simulation result of the analytical method is consistent with the result of the experimental method within the error bound ${\pm}$5%. The result of this paper is useful for development of the automatic spring correction system and reduction of the complicated and tedious processes involved in experimental method.

This paper explores the optimal design methodology for auto lever using a genetic algorithm. Component of auto lever has been designed sequentially in the industry, but this study presents the novel design method to consider the design parameters of components simultaneously. The genetic algorithm approach is described to determine a set of design parameters for auto lever. The authors have attempted to model the design problem with the objective of minimizing the angle variation of detent spring subject to constraints such as modulus of elasticity of steel, geometry of shift pipe, and stiffness of spring. This method can give the better alternative.

This paper deals with an optimal design methodology for an automatic transmission lever using a genetic algorithm. A component of an automatic transmission lever has been designed sequentially in the industry, but the study presents a new design method to consider the design parameters of components simultaneously. A genetic algorithm approach is described to determine a set of design parameters for an automatic transmission lever. We have attempted to model the design problem with the objective of minimizing the angle variation of detent spring subject to constraints such as modulus of elasticity of steel, geometry of shift pipe. and stiffness of spring. The proposed method can give the better design alternative.
