The utility model provides a bidirectional rigid locking
gas spring, which belongs to the technical field of gas springs and comprises a cylinder
barrel, a
piston rod component is arranged in the cylinder
barrel and comprises a
piston, a second
piston rod and a first
piston rod, the
tail end of the first
piston rod extends out of the right end of the cylinder
barrel, the lining is located in the piston, the spring is located in the lining, the valve rod abuts against the right end of the spring, the
control rod is located in the first
piston rod and abuts against the right end of the valve rod, the valve rod is concaved inwards to form a flowing cavity, and an
air cavity and an oil cavity are formed in the cylinder barrel through a second sealing piece. The oil cavities comprise the first oil cavity and the second oil cavity which are located on the left side and the right side of the piston respectively, the periphery of the piston is provided with a first channel and a second channel, the periphery of the bush is provided with a third channel, and the
control rod is used for driving the valve rod to move and controlling the flowing cavity to be communicated with the third channel in cooperation with the spring so as to control the first oil cavity to be communicated with the second oil cavity. When the first oil cavity and the second oil cavity are not communicated, compression cannot be carried out due to the fact that
gas spring oil exists on the two sides of the piston, and therefore two-way rigid locking is achieved. The
gas spring provided by the utility model can be rigidly locked in two directions of stretching and compression (both the compression direction and the stretching direction are in an
oil pressure state), is applied to a
steering wheel adjusting column to adjust the working angle of a
steering wheel, and can realize that the
steering wheel is rigidly locked without obvious movement when the working angle is pulled and pressed.
