What Are Locking Gas Springs
Locking gas springs are designed to support movement and hold a component at the required position during adjustment. Compared with standard gas springs, they provide controlled positioning through a locking mechanism that can be released when needed.
At TieYing, we manufacture locking gas springs for customers who need dependable position control, smooth operation and application based customization. Our solutions are widely used in seating systems, medical equipment, ergonomic furniture, vehicle interiors and industrial assemblies.
Whether you need a standard locking gas spring for repeat wholesale supply or a custom design for a new OEM project, we can support the development from technical review to mass production.
Structure of a Lockable Gas Spring
A lockable gas spring shares the same core structure as a compression gas spring, with the key distinction being the addition of a locking mechanism.
This locking mechanism typically consists of a pin that connects to a release valve (also known as a valve tappet). When the pin or plunger is activated, it halts the movement of the gas spring, preventing it from compressing or extending, thus locking it securely in place.
Benefits of TieYing Locking Gas Springs
- Position Control
- Lockable gas springs offer exact position control by locking at a predetermined point, removing the requirement for extra support or mechanisms.
- Effortless Use
- Locking gas springs provide convenience by enabling smooth position adjustments and securing at any chosen point with ease.
- Safety
- Locking gas springs enhance safety by firmly maintaining the position, preventing unintended shifts or potential accidents.
Locking Gas Spring Size Chart
TieYing is a leading manufacturer of locking gas springs based in China, with years of expertise in the industry. We provide three distinct types of locking gas springs, available in various force options and sizes. Our production facility is located in mainland China, and we have service branches across the USA, Europe, South America, and Asia. Additionally, we offer OEM customization with a minimum order quantity of 100 units.
| Series | Tube (mm) | Rod (mm) | Stroke (mm) | Force(N) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10/22*1 | 22 | 10 | 20-500 | 50-1000 |
| 10/26*1 | 26 | 10 | 20-500 | 50-1000 |
| 10/27*1.5 | 27 | 10 | 20-500 | 50-1000 |
| 10/28*1.5 | 28 | 10 | 20-500 | 50-1000 |
Elastic Locking and Rigid Locking Options
Choosing the right locking type depends on the real application, load direction, mounting angle, motion range and user expectations. Our team can help evaluate the suitable option based on your project.
Elastic Locking
Elastic locking gas springs allow a slight elastic movement after locking. This type is often suitable for applications where light cushioning, improved comfort or better tolerance under variable load is preferred.
Rigid in Extension
The rod stays firm when extended, though it may exhibit some flexibility when compressed. Our Rigid in Extension Locking gas springs enable the user to lock the rod at any position along its path. Once locked, the springs remain completely rigid under tension, but they can bend when exposed to compressive forces beyond certain thresholds. These limits are determined by the rod size, body size, and P1 force.
Rigid in Compression
This works in contrast to the “rigid in extension” type. The rod stays stiff when compressed, but may show slight flexibility when extended.
Our Rigid in Compression Locking gas springs feature a locking system that lets users secure the rod at any desired point along its movement. Once locked, the springs are completely rigid under compressive forces, but can bend when subjected to tensile forces that go beyond specific limits. These limits are influenced by factors such as rod size, body size, and P1 force.
Our technical and sales teams are available to assist you in choosing the ideal product for your needs.
| Elastic | RIGID IN EXTENSION | RIGID IN COMPRESSION | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rigidity in Tension | Good | Fully Rigid | High |
| Rigidity in Compression | Good | High | Fully Rigid |
| Release Valve Option | Yes | Yes | No |
| Typical Applications | Applications include chair backs, seat height adjusters, and equipment for individuals with physical disabilities, where the flexing provides a comfortable, "bouncy" sensation. Additional uses include situations where minimal or no extra force is needed once the gas spring is locked, such as in VDU height adjustments. | Rigid in extension gas springs are used in various applications, including hospital beds, aircraft, coach and rail seat back reclining mechanisms, as well as wheelchair recline and support systems. | This type of locking gas spring is used in applications such as operating, massage, and veterinary tables, as well as wheelchair recline and support systems. It is specifically designed for situations where any movement is not allowed once the device is locked in position. |
