What’s the internal structure and function of gas spring?

In modern industry and daily life, gas springs are an important mechanical component widely used in fields such as automobiles, furniture, aerospace, etc. With their unique design and superior performance, they have become an indispensable component in many devices. This article will delve into the internal structure and function of gas springs.

Basic structure of gas spring
Gas springs are mainly composed of the following parts:
1.  Cylinder: The cylinder is the main part of the gas spring, usually made of high-strength steel, with good pressure resistance and corrosion resistance. The cylinder is filled with gas, usually nitrogen, which can generate pressure inside the cylinder.
2.  Piston : The piston is located inside the cylinder and is responsible for converting the pressure of the gas into mechanical force. The design of the piston usually includes a sealing ring to prevent gas leakage and ensure the stability of the gas spring performance.
3. Piston Rod *: The piston rod connects the piston to external loads and is responsible for transmitting force. The surface of the piston rod has been specially treated to reduce friction and wear, extending its service life.
4.  Sealing device *: The sealing device is used to prevent gas leakage and ensure stable pressure of the gas spring during operation. Common sealing materials include rubber and polyurethane.
5. Valve *: Some gas springs are equipped with regulating valves that can adjust the pressure of the internal gas as needed, thereby changing the elasticity of the gas spring.

The function of gas spring
The main function of a gas spring is to provide stable support and buffering force, which is reflected in the following aspects:
1.Support Function : Gas springs can provide stable support at specific positions, widely used in car trunk, seat adjustment and other occasions, helping users easily open and close heavy objects.
2.Buffer effect: In some mechanical equipment, gas springs can effectively absorb impact force, reduce vibration, and protect the safety of equipment and operators.
3.Adjustment Function: By adjusting the gas pressure inside the cylinder, the gas spring can achieve different elasticity requirements and adapt to various working environments and load conditions.
4. Automated Control: In some high-end equipment, gas springs can be combined with electronic control systems to achieve automatic opening and closing, height adjustment, and other functions, improving the intelligence level of the equipment.
