The larger the lid, the more unpleasant the consequences if it should start moving on its own and fall shut.
In addition to force assist, the LIFT-O-MAT gas spring with end position lock also provides a safe mechanical lock of the application in the open position.
Function
Two versions are available for end position lock in the extended position.
The gas spring with the lock on the outside features a support tube at the end of the piston rod that folds out automatically when the gas spring is fully extended. During closing, the support tube must be folded down by hand.
The locking of a gas spring with the lock on the inside is comparable to the mechanics of a ball point pen: when the gas spring is pushed in lightly, it will catch. If pushed briefly in the extension direction, the locking mechanism will be released.
