Mechanical Function

Counterbalance

Hover to animate

Counterbalance mechanisms feature compression, torsion or extension springs to resists downward force (gravity + lid weight) and provide soft lift assist and slow close functionality for user control. They may also be spring-loaded for self-close. These systems may also include infinite position control from open to close.


Torque calculations: Torque = Lid Height x 0.5 x Lid Weight.
