Since some gates are in a closed state for a long time, the piston rods of the gate hoists are in an extended and exposed state. Therefore, the piston rods exposed to the air may be contaminated with a lot of dust, or the contact between the oil seepage from the lower end cover of the gate hoist and the dust may produce sludge. At the same time, the moisture in the air may enter the surface of the piston rod through the pores of the coating, causing the piston rod to rust. In the long run, it will have a certain impact on the quality of the piston rod and its subsequent operation. The extension length of the piston rod of the hydraulic gate hoist can reach about 15m. There is no maintenance and observation platform in the operating area of the piston rod, so maintenance personnel cannot clean and inspect the surface of the piston rod.
