DESCRIPTION
Air springs contain a column of air in an elastomeric bellow or
sleeve to provide suspension, isolation, or actuation. Commonly
found in vehicle suspension systems, occasionally in conjunction
with a coil spring, they are also used to insulate vibration in
machinery and as linear or angular actuators.
Air springs are employed through the use of an air compressor which
fills and empties the pliable air bladder. The load is not
distributed to the rubber liner, which only serves to contain the
gas; the weight is attached to a piston or bead plate, which is
directly supported by the air with very little deflection. A
self-leveling mechanism is common to keep the air spring's load
stable, and occasionally a separate coil spring is incorporated
into the design. Also available are electronic air spring systems
that can monitor air pressure, filter compressor air (preventing
damage to the rubber bellows), and a lock to keep air inside of the
spring in case of compressor or air line failure.
Air springs are most common in vehicle suspensions, but can also be
used to keep vibrating/rotating machinery from affecting other
components. Occasionally used as actuators, air springs can provide
linear and angular translation.
Our products are designed to help every part of a semi-truck
operate at peak capacity, especially the driver. That's why you'll
find Firestone solutions hard at work in the driver's cab,
shielding the driver from disruptive vibrations and noise. With
Firestone cab mounts and seat air springs, drivers are more
comfortable, more productive and less subject to accidents caused
by fatigue.
