A compression coil spring includes a steel wire material containing, hereinafter in weight %, 0.5 to 0.7% of C, 1.2 to 3.0% of Si, 0.3 to 1.2% of Mn, 0.5 to 1.9% of Cr and 0.05 to 0.5% of V as necessary components, one or more kinds selected from not more than 1.5% of Ni, not more than 1.5% of Mo and not more than 0.5% of W as freely selected components, and iron and inevitable impurities as the remainder; the C-condensed layer which exceeds the average concentration of C contained in the steel wire material exists at a surface layer part, and the thickness of the C-condensed layer is within 0.01 to 0.05 mm along the entire circumference of the steel wire material.

A spring manufacturing machine comprises a coiling mandrel fixed to a wall and protruding from the wall, and a cutting device that has a slider movable in a direction inclined with respect to the axis of the coiling mandrel and a blade attached to the slider, and cuts a bent wire in cooperation with the coiling mandrel. Preferably, the coiling mandrel protrudes orthogonally to the wall, and the cutting device is attached to the wall in a posture inclined with respect to the wall.

A method for producing a flat spiral spring formed as an annular disk-shaped segment, wherein a strip-shaped material is supplied in a tangential alignment to the lateral surface of the drum such that a lateral wall which determines the thickness of the strip-shaped material rests against some sections of a contact surface on the lateral surface of the drum. The contact surface of the drum has a radius which substantially corresponds to an internal radius of the strip-shaped material, and at least one deflecting device is aligned at a distance to the drum such that the strip-shaped material is guided in a forced manner between the drum and the deflecting device, and the strip-shaped material is bent so as to follow the drum by means of the deflecting device.

A coil spring manufacturing device includes a mandrel around which a wire is wound, a feed mechanism which feeds the wire toward the mandrel, guide members which guide the wire, a chuck which fixes a distal end of the wire, and a clamp mechanism. The clamp mechanism sandwiches the wire from both sides before the distal end of the wire reaches the mandrel. Further, the clamp mechanism can be rotated about a fulcrum by rotation actuator, and can also be slid in a direction along an axis of the mandrel by sliding actuator. In a state in which the wire is sandwiched by the clamp mechanism, the clamp mechanism is rotated, and if necessary, is slid. Thereby, a bent portion for a negative pitch portion of a coil spring is formed at a part of the wire.
