Yog Torsion Spring Kits Safe rau DIY Installation?
Koj xav kom txuag tau ntau pua nyiaj rau kev kho tus kws tshaj lij. But you've heard that torsion springs are dangerous, thiab ib qho yuam kev tuaj yeem ua rau raug mob hnyav lossis khoom puas tsuaj.
DIY installation yog qhov txaus ntshai heev thiab tsuas yog pom zoo rau cov neeg uas muaj kev paub txog kev siv tshuab. Cov springs ua haujlwm nyob rau hauv lub zog loj heev. Siv cov cuab yeej raug, tshwj xeeb tshaj yog tsim nyog winding tuav, thiab ua raws li cov lus qhia raws nraim yog qhov tseem ceeb los tiv thaiv kev sib tsoo.
Ib zaug kuv tau tham nrog ib tus neeg tuav haujlwm hauv zos uas hu rau peb rau lub caij nplooj ntoo hlav. Nws hais rau kuv txog ib txoj hauj lwm uas nws tau kho lub qhov rooj tsheb uas tus tswv tsev tau sim ua nws tus kheej. Tus tswv tsev siv ob peb lub taub hau loj loj es tsis txhob siv cov hlua khi kom zoo. Ib tug ntawm lawv ntog tawm ntawm lub winding cone nyob rau hauv nruj nreem thiab tua hla lub nkas-las, xuas nrig ntaus ib qhov los ntawm lub phab ntsa ntub dej. Nws muaj hmoo kawg uas nws nco nws. Zaj dab neeg ntawd yeej ib txwm daig nrog kuv. Lub zog khaws cia nyob rau hauv lub qhov txhab torsion caij nplooj ntoos hlav tsis yog ib yam dab tsi rau underestimate.
To taub qhov Risks
Qhov phom sij yog los ntawm qhov loj ntawm lub zog tig (lub zog) khaws cia rau hauv lub qhov txhab lub qhov txhab. Tso lub zog no rau hauv txoj kev tsis tswj hwm yog qhov ua rau muaj xwm txheej.
- Cov cuab yeej zoo yog tsis sib tham: Cov khoom siv kev nyab xeeb tseem ceeb tshaj plaws yog ib khub ntawm cov khoom hlau winding tuav[^ 1] uas haum lub winding cone qhov zoo kawg nkaus. Tsis txhob siv lwm yam.
- Cov cuab yeej tiv thaiv tus kheej (PPE): Ib txwm hnav tsom iav kev nyab xeeb thiab hnab looj tes tuab.
- Ua raws li tus txheej txheem: Tsis txhob sawv ncaj nraim rau hauv txoj kev ntawm lub cones winding. Ua hauj lwm los ntawm sab, thiab ib txwm muaj ib lub bar tag nrho zaum ua ntej koj tshem tawm lwm tus.

Dab tsi Ua Cov Khoom Siv Zoo Tshaj Torsion Spring?
Ntau cov khoom siv zoo ib yam hauv online, tab sis tus nqi sib txawv. You're worried a cheap kit will just fail again in a year, yuam kom koj ua txoj haujlwm txaus ntshai no dua.
A high-quality kit is defined by the spring's material and lub neej voj voog[^2]. Saib rau cov springs ua los ntawm cov roj-tempered steel hlau thiab xyuas kom cov khoom siv muaj xws li cam khwb cia hlau winding cones thiab ib tug tshiab center bearing.
Hauv kuv qhov chaw tsim khoom, kev xaiv ntawm cov hlau yog lub hauv paus ntawm txhua lub caij nplooj ntoos hlav peb ua. Rau cov ntawv thov kev nyuaj siab zoo li lub qhov rooj ntawm chav nres tsheb, roj-tempered hlau yog tus qauv rau ib qho laj thawj. Nws muaj lub zog zoo heev thiab qaug zog ua haujlwm, txhais tau hais tias nws tuaj yeem kho tau raug mob thiab tshem tawm ntau txhiab zaus. Lub caij nplooj ntoos hlav ua los ntawm pheej yig dua, qis-qib xaim tuaj yeem nqa lub qhov rooj, but it won't last. Lub voj voog lub neej tuaj yeem yog ib nrab ntawm lub caij nplooj ntoo hlav zoo. Them me ntsis ntxiv rau cov khoom siv nrog cov ntawv pov thawj 20,000+ lub voj voog ntsuas txhais tau tias koj tab tom yuav kev thaj yeeb ntawm lub siab, tsis yog ib daim hlau xwb.
Cov Cheebtsam tseem ceeb los soj ntsuam
Cov khoom siv zoo yog ntau tshaj li lub caij nplooj ntoos hlav. Cov cuab yeej txhawb nqa tsuas yog ib qho tseem ceeb rau kev kho kom ruaj ntseg thiab kav ntev.
- Caij nplooj ntoos hlav hlau zoo: Cov springs yuav tsum tau teev raws li roj-tempered ASTM A229 hlau. Qhov no yog tus qauv kev lag luam rau lub zog thiab lub neej ntev.
- Voj voog lub neej: Lub caij nplooj ntoos hlav txheem yog ntsuas rau txog 10,000 lub voj voog (ib lub voj voog qhib thiab kaw qhov rooj ib zaug). High-cycle springs tuaj yeem ntsuas rau 25,000 cycles los yog ntau tshaj thiab yog ib qho kev txhim kho tsim nyog.
- Kho vajtse: Lub winding cones yuav tsum tau ua los ntawm cov khoom ruaj khov, nrum hlau, tsis stamped ntawv hlau. Cov khoom siv yuav tsum muaj xws li ib lub nylon center bearing tshiab kom du, ua haujlwm ntsiag to.
| Cheebtsam | Txheem Zoo | Siab Zoo |
|---|---|---|
| Caij nplooj ntoos hlav hlau | Tsis paub meej lossis yooj yim steel. | Roj-Tempered ASTM A229 Hlau. |

Yuav Ua Li Cas Koj Xaiv Qhov Loj Zoo rau Koj Cov Khoom Siv?
You're ready to order, tab sis cov txheej txheem ntsuas tsis meej pem. Koj paub tias kev xaj lub caij nplooj ntoo hlav tsis raug cai yuav tsis nqa koj lub qhov rooj lossis muab qhov txaus ntshai ntawm kev ntxhov siab rau koj lub qhov qhib.
Koj yuav tsum txiav txim plaub qhov kev ntsuas tseeb ntawm koj li laus, tawg caij nplooj ntoos hlav: kab loj, the inside diameter, qhov ntev ntawm lub caij nplooj ntoos hlav, thiab nws wind direction[^3] (sab laug los yog sab xis cua). Ib qho yuam kev hauv ib qho ntawm cov no yuav ua rau muaj kev hloov pauv tsis raug.
Qhov no yog qhov precision yog txhua yam. Qhov feem ntau yuam kev yuam kev kuv pom yog nyob rau hauv ntsuas qhov hlau loj[^4]. Cov neeg yuav siv daim kab xev ntsuas thiab kwv yees, tab sis qhov txawv ntawm ib .250" cev a.262" hlau yog loj heev nyob rau hauv cov nqe lus ntawm lifting zog. Peb siv cov calipers uas ntsuas mus rau txhiab ntawm ib nti, and that's the only tool you should trust for this. Kuv ib txwm qhia cov neeg los ntsuas cov hlau hauv tsawg kawg yog ob lossis peb qhov chaw ntawm qhov tsis sib xws ntawm lub caij nplooj ntoo hlav thiab coj qhov nruab nrab. It's the single most important measurement for getting the right lifting force.
The Four Critical Measurements
Tau txais plaub cov ntsiab lus kom raug yog tsis sib tham. Ntsuas koj lub caij nplooj ntoos hlav tawg, tsis yog lub qhov rooj nws tus kheej.
- Cua Direction: Saib thaum kawg ntawm lub caij nplooj ntoos hlav. Yog hais tias lub coil kab mus rau sab xis, it's a right-hand wind. Yog nws nce mus rau sab laug, it's a left-hand wind. Feem ntau lub qhov rooj muaj ib qho ntawm txhua qhov.
- Inside Diameter (ID): Qhov no feem ntau yog stamped ntawm lub khob hliav qab thiab feem ntau yog 1.75" los yog 2 ".
- Hlau Loj: Siv calipers los ntsuas qhov tuab ntawm cov hlau. Rau ib txoj kev tseeb dua, ntsuas 10 coils nias ua ke thiab faib tus lej los ntawm 10.
- Caij nplooj ntoos hlav ntev: Ntsuas qhov ntev ntawm tag nrho lub cev coil thaum nws so (tsis mob).
| Kev ntsuas | Yuav Txiav Txim Li Cas | Feem ntau yuam kev |
|---|---|---|
| Cua Direction | Ua raws li cov kauj ruam ntawm qhov kawg ntawm lub caij nplooj ntoos hlav. | Guessing based on which side of the door it's on. |
| Inside Diameter | Tshawb xyuas lub cone winding rau ib tus lej stamped. | Ntsuas nrog ib daim kab xev ntsuas es tsis txhob nyeem lub khob hliav qab. |
| Hlau Loj | Siv cov calipers ntawm cov hlau nws tus kheej. | Siv tus pas ntsuas los yog daim kab xev ntsuas, uas tsis meej txaus. |
| Caij nplooj ntoos hlav ntev | Ntsuas lub compressed coil lub cev ntawm lub caij nplooj ntoos hlav tawg. | Ntsuas thaum lub caij nplooj ntoos hlav tseem nyob hauv qhov nro lossis gapped. |
