Principle of Operation
It is possible to stop at any position and be locked by movement of inner oil(gas).
1) In case of having Free Piston
-
Locking
Because oil of A and B room is shut off by O/C/Pin, Piston is locked. -
Unlocking
When Valve Pin (Push Rod) is pushed, O/C/Pin is opened and oil of A and B room comes to move through Orifice pipe, therefore Lock is released. Piston Rod is expanded by pressure of C room gas but it is reduced by pushing force. -
Relocking
When force is removed from Valve Pin(Push Rod), O/C/Pin is locked and a state of (1) comes again.
2) In case of no Free Piston
-
Locking
O/C/Pin shuts off Oil+Gas and Piston is locked. -
Unlocking
When Valve Pin(Push Rod) is pushed, Oil+Gas can move through Orifice pipe by opened O/C/Pin and Lock is released. Piston Rod is expanded by pressure of Gas but it is reduced by pushing force. -
Relocking
When force is removed from Valve Pin(push Rod), O/C/Pin is locked and a state of (1) comes again.
