Shock Absorber
Global business circumstances needs bigger production capacity with high speed. On the contrary, by industrial acceleration impact mass is become heavy and vibration makes tough working conditions, and fatigue energy accumulated on the production facilities. Without proper machines can be damaged easily.
- Rubber & Spring
- When decelerating moving object by rubber or spring, the compressed force is not constant and the resistance force is increased gradually, due to that characteristics, impact energy is not absorbed and rather stored, and it transfers impact energy with less absorption to the object.
- Hydraulic & Pneumatics Devices
- At deceleration moment, single orifice devices like hydraulic cylinder, dashpot, deceleration valve, etc produce big resistance force in initial stage. Rather if pneumatic device is used, gradually the resistance force is increased and maximum the force become biggest at the end of stroke.
- IZMAC Shock Absorber
- IZMAC Shock Absorbers absorb impact energy at constant resistance through all the stroke sections by using multiple orifices to minimize the impact force when moving object is stopped. Thus, IZMAC shock absorber can stop moving object softly by minimized impact force.
Shock Absorber’s Overview Structure and Function
- Shock Absorber consists of body, bumper head, piston rod, adjustment dial, and lock nut.
- Thanks to full threaded body it is easy to be installed and precise location fixing is possible.
And surface area is increased to dissipate thermal energy fast to atmosphere. - Bumper head has a role of stopper.
- Piston rod transfers the Impact energy of bumper head to piston.
- Adjustment dial is useful that damping force can be adjusted to impact weight and velocity according to damping conditions.
- Lock nut is useful for installing and fixing shock absorber tightly with body tread installation.
Shock Absorber’s Inner view Structure and Working principle
Inside of shock absorber consists of piston, check valve, accumulator, Inner tube, multiple orifice, return spring, oil, etc. On impacting, the piston rod is inserted into Inner tube and check valve is closed. And it forces oil in the chamber to flow through orifices. At the same time, damping force is generated into piston. Compressed oil which flowed into accumulator is compensating same volume of piston inside. Return process is made by return spring and check valve is opened then piston rod is returned to its original position.
Principal of Energy Absorption
After impacting, compressed oil by piston is to be forced out of Inner tube through orifices. The impact energy is changed into thermal energy then dissipated to atmosphere through threaded body.
