Conic spring from a Topre switch, pictured alongside a standard Topre spacebar spring. The conic spring is essential for the Topre switch to work, but does not significantly alter the feel. The spacebar spring on a small Japanese spacebar sits atop the actual switch, whereas on larger spacebars, two springs are placed at either end where the spacebar is stabilised.
