Several Installation Ways of Cylinder

Sep 19, 2019

1. Flange type installation can be divided into front flange type and back flange type. Front flange type uses flange and screw to fix cylinder at front end cover. Back flange type refers to installing flange at back end cover and using screw to fix it. It is also suitable for situations where the direction of load movement is consistent with the axis of piston rod.


2. Free installation means that the cylinder body is fixed by screwing the threads inside the cylinder block into the mechanical body without using the installation accessories; or by using the threads outside the cylinder block, the cylinder is fixed on the machine by using nuts; or by screwing the screw holes in the end cap.


3. Medium pendulum installation is to install TC pendulum in the middle of the cylinder to complete the installation and fixing of the cylinder. The cylinder of this installation can swing around the middle trunnion and is suitable for long cylinders.


4. Scaffold mounting method, expressed by LB, refers to the installation and fixing of a L-type mounting scaffold with screw holes at the front end cover. The mounting scaffold can withstand large overturning moment and can be used in situations where the direction of load movement is consistent with the axis of the piston rod.


5. Earrings are divided into single-ear and double-ear types. They refer to cylinders with pin holes in the vertical direction of piston rod axes, whose loads and cylinders can swing around pin shafts by using screw to fix the cylinder head and earrings at the back end caps of SC series standard cylinders. The bigger the swing angle is, the larger the lateral load the piston rod bears.
