Ngaba iTshati yoMbala woLwandiso lweNtwasahlobo yonke into oyiFuna ngokwenene?

Ucango lwakho lwegaraji lwaphukile, kunye netshathi yombala ibonakala njengento elula yokulungisa. Kodwa ukuthembela kuphela kumbala kunokukhokelela ekukhetheni intwasahlobo engafanelekanga, ukudala ingozi enkulu yokhuseleko kusapho lwakho.

An extension spring color chart is a guide that links your garage door's weight to a specific spring strength, ichongwe ngombala. Le nkqubo ikunceda ukuba ufumane indawo eya kulungelelanisa ngokufanelekileyo umnyango, but it's only accurate if you know your door's true weight.

I've been manufacturing springs for over 14 iminyaka, kwaye ndinokuxelela ukuba itshathi yombala sisixhobo, ayisosisombululo. Ndakha ndasebenza nenkampani yofakelo lwamacango egaraji eyayifumana izikhalazo rhoqo malunga nokungavaleki kakuhle kweengcango. Kuye kwafumaniseka ukuba amagcisa abo angqamanisa nje nombala wentwasahlobo yakudala xa betshintsha. They weren't weighing the doors. Emva kweminyaka yokuvezwa kweempawu kunye needyasi ezimbalwa zepeyinti, ezininzi iingcango zazinjalo 20-30 iiponti ezinzima kunaxa zazisentsha. Imithombo emidala yayisele isilela phantsi koxinzelelo, kwaye endaweni yazo "umbala" yayiphinda ingxaki. That's why you have to look beyond the color and start with the facts.

Why Is Your Door's Weight More Important Than the Color Code?

Ufumene umbala kwintwasahlobo yakho endala, kodwa kuthekani ukuba ibisele ingalunganga? Ukuthelekisa nje loo mbala kuthetha ukuba unokufaka intwasahlobo encinci, okukhokelela kwenye ukusilela kunye nomnyango ongakhuselekanga.

The color code is just a label for a spring's lifting power, which must match your door's actual weight. Iingcango ziba nzima ngokuhamba kwexesha. Ukulinganisa ucango lwakho kuphela kwendlela yokuqinisekisa ukuba ukhetha intwasahlobo echanekileyo yokusebenza ngokukhuselekileyo nangokulungeleleneyo.

Kumzi-mveliso wethu, yonke intwasahlobo esiyivelisayo ilinganiswe ngokweenkcukacha zamandla ezichanekileyo, ethi ke imelwe ngumbala. Kodwa loo mbala awunantsingiselo ngaphandle kwenombolo yokuqala echanekileyo: the door's weight. Abantu badla ngokulitsiba inyathelo lokukala kuba libonakala liyingxaki. Bacinga ukuba umntu wokugqibela wenze kakuhle. But I've seen homeowners add heavy insulation panels or even decorative hardware, ukongeza ubunzima obubalulekileyo emnyango. Imithombo yokuqala ayizange yenzelwe loo mthwalo. Ngaphandle kokulinganisa umnyango, uphaphazela uyimfama. Ukuthatha 15 imizuzu yokufumana ubunzima obuchanekileyo lelona nyathelo libalulekileyo ekuqinisekiseni ukuba ukulungiswa kwenziwa ngokukhuselekileyo nangokuchanekileyo. Isusa yonke ingqikelelo kwaye isisiseko senkqubo elungelelanisiweyo ngokufanelekileyo.

Inkqubo echanekileyo yokuWayisha

Le yinkqubo ebaluleke kakhulu kukhuseleko ekufuneka yenziwe ngononophelo.

• Inyathelo 1: Nqamula Amandla. Elona nyathelo lokuqala kukukhulula isivuli socango lwegaraji kwindawo yombane.
• Inyathelo 2: Khulula ucango. Tsala intambo ebomvu yokukhupha intambo ukuze ukhuphe isivuli emnyango.
• Inyathelo 3: Viyisha ucango. Nocango luvalwe ngokupheleleyo, beka isikali esiqhelekileyo sokuhlambela phantsi kwecala lasekhohlo kunye nelinye phantsi kwecala lasekunene. You may need small blocks of wood to lift the scales up to the door's bottom seal. Ukufundwa okudibeneyo kwezikali zombini bunzima bokwenene bomnyango wakho wegaraji. Eli linani oya kulisebenzisa kunye netshathi yombala.

Uyifunda njani eneneni itshathi yoMbala weGarage Door yaseNtwasahlobo?

You have your door's weight, kodwa itshati ibonisa imibala elishumi elinambini. Choosing one that's "close enough" iyakushiya umnyango wakho ungalingani, ukuhluza isivuli kwaye kubangele ukuguga kwangaphambili kwiirola kunye neehenjisi.

You match your door's accurate weight to the corresponding color on the chart. It's crucial to understand that the weight listed is for a pair of springs. Ucango lweeponti ezili-140 lufuna imithombo emibini ephakathi kwe-140 yeeponti (Lubhelu), njengoko intwasahlobo nganye yenzelwe ukuphakamisa isiqingatha somthwalo opheleleyo.

I ikhowudi yombala[^ 1] inkqubo yenzelwe ukwenza uchongo lube lula kwiingcali. Imibala iqhubela phambili kwi-10-pound increments, ivumela ulungelelwaniso oluchaneke kakhulu. Umnyango olungelelene ngokugqibeleleyo kufuneka uzive uphantse ungabi nabunzima xa uphakamisa ngesandla. Kuya kufuneka ukwazi ukuyimisa ivuleke kwaye ihlale apho. Ukuba ifuna ukuwa, Imithombo yakho iphelile. Ukuba ifuna ukubhabha ivuleke, Imithombo yakho inamandla kakhulu. Nokuba umahluko we-10-ponti unokudala ukungalingani okunyanzela isivuli sakho sombane ukuba sisebenze nzima kakhulu kunokuba kufanelekile., ukwenza bufutshane ubomi bayo. Kungenxa yoko le nto ungaze "ujikeleze" okanye "sondeza phantsi." Sebenzisa ubunzima obuchanekileyo bomnyango wakho ukuze ufumane umbala ohambelanayo.

Itshathi yoMbala oMgangatho weengcango ezi-7 zeenyawo

Le yitshathi eqhelekileyo esetyenziswa kushishino.

• Inkqubo yeeponti ezili-10: Umbala ngamnye umele owongezelelweyo 10 iipounds zamandla okuphakamisa. Oku kulungelelaniswa kwenza kube lula ukufumana indawo efanelekileyo.
• Hlalani Nitshintshe Ngezibini: Imithombo yokwandisa isebenza kunye. Xa umntu esilela, enye iphantsi kwenani elifanayo lemijikelo kunye noxinzelelo kwaye kusenokwenzeka ukuba iphantse yasilela. Ukutshintsha intwasahlobo enye kuphela kuya kudala ukungalingani kwangoku kwaye kuyingozi.

Ngaba ucango olude lusebenzisa itshathi yoMbala owahlukileyo?

Unomnyango wegaraji oziimitha ezi-8 ubude, kodwa usebenzise itshati eqhelekileyo. Ngoku imithombo emitsha yolule kakhulu xa ucango luvuliwe, ukwenza ingxolo enkulu kunye nokuphelelwa ngamandla ngokukhawuleza.

Ewe, iingcango ezinde zifuna imithombo eyahlukeneyo kunye netshathi eyahlukileyo. Umnyango oqhelekileyo weenyawo ezi-7 usebenzisa i-25-intshi ubude bentwasahlobo. Ucango lweenyawo ezi-8 lufuna ixesha elide, 27-intshi yasentlakohlaza yokuphatha umgama owongezelelweyo wokuhamba ngaphandle kokwelulwa. I ikhowudi yombala[^ 1]s kule mithombo mide yahlukile.

Le yenye yeempazamo eziqhelekileyo endizibonayo. Ucango lweenyawo ezi-8 kufuneka luhambe olongezelelweyo 12 intshi. Ukuba usebenzisa intwasahlobo eqhelekileyo engama-25-intshi, uyolulela kude ngaphaya komda oyilelweyo ngalo lonke ixesha uvula ucango. Oku kuya konakalisa ngokusisigxina intwasahlobo, ibangele ukuba ilahlekelwe ngamandla ayo okuphakamisa ngexesha elifutshane kakhulu. Kwakhona kubeka intwasahlobo emngciphekweni omkhulu ngokukhawuleza, ukusilela kwintlekele. Njengomvelisi, sivelisa obu bude bahlukeneyo bentwasahlobo ngenxa yesi sizathu kanye. Ububanzi bocingo kunye nenani leekhoyili zahlukile, okuthetha ukuba iimpawu zabo zamandla zahlukile. Awukwazi ukucinga "iBlue" intwasahlobo yomnyango weenyawo ezi-7 iyafana ne "Blue" intwasahlobo yomnyango we-8-foot. You must use a chart specific to your door's height.

Ukubaluleka kokuTshatisa Ubude beNtwasahlobo ukuya kuBubude bomnyango

It's a simple rule: the spring's length must match the door's height.

• Umgama wokuHamba: The distance a spring has to stretch is determined by the door's height. Iingcango ezinde zithetha ukuhamba okungakumbi.
• Yenzelwe ukolula okuthe ngqo: I-25-intshi entwasahlobo yenzelwe ukolula ngokukhuselekileyo ukuya 42 intshi (ngomnyango weenyawo ezi-7). I-27-intshi entwasahlobo yenzelwe ukolula ngokukhuselekileyo 48 intshi (ngomnyango weenyawo ezi-8).
• Umdibaniso Ongalunganga Awuphumeleli: Ukusebenzisa ubude obungalunganga kuya kuhlala kukhokelela ekuhlulekeni. Ucango mhlawumbi aluyi kuvuleka/luvale ngokuchanekileyo, okanye imithombo iya kuguga kwisithuba seenyanga endaweni yeminyaka.

Ukuqukumbela

Itshathi yombala sisikhokelo esiluncedo, kodwa akwanelanga. Kuya kufuneka ulinganise ucango lwakho kwaye uqinisekise ukuphakama kwalo ukuze ukhethe imithombo yolwandiso oluchanekileyo nolukhuselekileyo lwegaraji yakho.
