Suzhou spring manufacturers say the installation and adjustment method of car springs

Automotive spring is an important component that can absorb shock and alleviate body oscillation, and its accurate installation and adjustment is an indispensable part of vehicle performance and safety. In this article, we will introduce you to the installation and adjustment methods of automotive springs.

First, spring installation

1. Prepare

Before installing the spring, it should be confirmed that the selected spring specifications and models match. If it does not match, it will not only cause damage to the body, but also pose a threat to personnel safety. At the same time, the installation location and method should also be determined. Generally speaking, the spring mainly has two kinds of suspension spring and shock absorber spring, so the installation method is also different.

2. Installation of suspension spring

The installation of suspension springs is generally based on components such as sleeves and brake pads. A proper suspension spring installation consists of five steps: mounting the seat, mounting the sleeve, mounting the holster, mounting the clamp, and mounting the nut. Among them, there are generally two kinds of mounting seats, one is connected to the body by welding, and the other is fixed to the body by bolts. When installing the spring, it is necessary to operate in strict accordance with the installation sequence, while paying attention to adjusting the position of brake pads and sleeves and other components.

3. Installation of shock absorber spring

The installation of the shock absorber spring generally needs to be operated in accordance with the compression mode. When installing the shock absorber spring, it is necessary to compress it to a suitable length for easy installation into the body hole. Then, connect the top of the shock absorber spring to the shock absorber of the body and fix the mounting nut. It is important to ensure that the damping spring is properly installed in the body holes to ensure that there is no movement or shaking.

Second, the adjustment of the spring

When the installation of the spring is completed, it is also necessary to adjust the spring. It mainly includes the following aspects:

1. Load adjustment

When the vehicle has different loads, the support force of the spring on the body is also different, so the hardness of the spring needs to be adjusted according to different loads. When the load is large, several springs should be added accordingly to support the weight and make the center of gravity of the vehicle more stable. When the load is light, it is necessary to reduce the spring to balance the body.

2. Adjust the height

Long time use will cause the height of the body to shorten, at this time you need to adjust the spring to adjust the height of the body. In general, do not remove or replace the spring at will, otherwise it will cause varying degrees of damage to the body.

3. Bias adjustment

In some special cases, the vehicle may have the phenomenon of suspension skew, resulting in instability of the body's center of gravity. At this time, the precision of the spring needs to be adjusted in order to restore the balance of the body.

In SUMMARY:

The spring plays an important role in the vehicle, and the accuracy of its installation and adjustment will directly affect the performance and safety of the vehicle. Only if we adopt the correct method to install and adjust the spring, can the vehicle have better stability, ride comfort and comfort during driving.
