Bonnet Strut for Land Rover Discovery III Lr009106 Auto Accessories Suspension Part Vehicle Part

What is the Electric Gas Strut？

Automobile gas spring is an industrial accessory that uses compressed gas (such as nitrogen) to provide power. It has functions such as support, buffering, braking, height adjustment, and angle adjustment.

The working principle of automotive gas springs is to fill a closed cylinder with compressed gas, and use gas pressure to generate thrust or tension, thereby achieving the movement of the piston rod. The characteristic of this type of spring is that the slope of the force displacement curve is small, and the force value remains basically unchanged throughout the entire motion stroke. The main types of automotive gas springs include free type, self-locking type, random stop type, traction type, and damper, which are suitable for different application scenarios, such as support, locking, and adjustment.

In addition, automotive gas springs have a wide range of applications in the automotive field, such as body accessories used for support and assistance, such as the front hood or rear luggage compartment lid, which can provide support when the hood is opened and return to a compressed state when the hood is closed.

What is the advantages for gas springs?

-Comfort

Air suspension has typical nonlinear stiffness, which has a significant buffering effect on vibration and impact. It can effectively isolate vehicle vibrations from the ground. Vehicles equipped with air suspension have good curve passing ability (i.e., the speed during turning can be higher than that of vehicles with steel plate springs), shorter braking distance (uniform distribution of braking force, high effective braking power), clearer and more stable rearview mirror images, and more comfortable drivers, Not easily fatigued, more focused.

-Economy

The air spring suspension system can improve the reliability of vehicles, reduce the failure rate of on-board electrical systems by 30-40%, extend the service life of tires and brake pads, reduce maintenance techniques for electrical, air conditioning, exhaust systems, axles, body and chassis, extend the service life of vehicles, and increase depreciation.

-Security

For multi axle vehicles, air suspension ensures that the load on each axle is evenly distributed, avoiding the possibility of a single axle bearing all the load in a steel plate spring suspension; For a single axle, air suspension basically ensures equal distribution of force on both sides of the wheels. The air spring suspension system considers the safety of the system. In emergency situations, such as airbag rupture or pipeline leakage, the air spring suspension system can ensure that the frame is stable on the cushion inside the airbag, or the axle reaches the limit quickly. The vehicle can be driven to a repair station for repair in low-quality conditions. Air spring suspension has higher safety than steel plate spring suspension.

-Reliability

The nodes of the air spring suspension that rotate relative to each other are all equipped with rubber bushings or high-quality insulation grease. It overcomes rigid contact and friction, which not only eases the impact between components but also greatly improves the reliability of the system. The key components of air spring suspension undergo rigorous fatigue tests in the laboratory or reliability tests in harsh environments, and have been verified through multiple tests.

-Material quality

Our product is made of PA66 polymer material, with a tensile strength of ≥ 5000N and no fracture. It has undergone 20000 high and low temperature durability tests (10000 times at room temperature -5000 times at low temperature -40 ° C, and 5000 times at high temperature -80 ° C).
