Product Introduction

Key Features

Two Way Rotation Capability

• The two way rotation feature of this rotary damper allows for seamless movement in both clockwise and counterclockwise directions. In the context of a hidden socket, it enables the socket cover to be opened and closed with equal ease and control. For example, when a user needs to access the socket, they can rotate the cover in one direction, and when finished, rotate it back in the opposite direction to close it. The rotation is smooth and precise, eliminating any jerky or sudden movements that could cause damage to the socket or the surrounding area.
• This bidirectional operation is essential for hidden sockets as it provides a user-friendly experience. It allows for quick and convenient access to the electrical outlet without the hassle of dealing with a one-way or difficult-to-maneuver cover.

Small Size and Compact Design

• The small size of this rotational oil damper is a significant advantage. It is specifically engineered to fit into the confined space of a hidden socket assembly. Despite its compact dimensions, it still delivers reliable and effective damping performance. The small footprint ensures that it does not interfere with the overall design or functionality of the hidden socket. It can be easily integrated into the socket's mechanism without requiring extensive modifications or additional space.
• The compact design also makes it aesthetically pleasing. It blends in with the socket's appearance, maintaining a clean and unobtrusive look. This is especially important for hidden sockets that are often designed to be discreet and not draw attention.

Oil Damping System

• The oil damping system is at the core of this rotary damper's functionality. It utilizes a carefully calibrated amount of oil to provide a smooth and controlled resistance to the rotational motion. As the socket cover rotates, the oil is displaced in a regulated manner, gradually slowing down the speed of rotation. This results in a soft and quiet movement, preventing any noisy or sudden closures. The viscosity of the oil can be adjusted to match the specific requirements of different hidden socket designs. For a more delicate and slow rotation, a lower viscosity oil can be used, while a higher viscosity oil provides a stronger damping force for sockets with heavier or larger covers.
• The oil damping system also ensures a consistent feel and performance over time. It is designed to withstand the repeated opening and closing motions of the socket cover and maintain its effectiveness.

Soft Operation

• The soft operation of this damper is a key aspect that enhances the user experience. When opening or closing the hidden socket cover, the soft damping effect provides a gentle and controlled movement. This not only adds a touch of luxury and refinement but also helps protect the socket and the cover from damage. The soft close, in particular, prevents any slamming or hard impacts that could potentially loosen the socket's components or scratch the cover's surface.
• The soft operation also reduces the wear and tear on the socket mechanism, prolonging its lifespan. It ensures that the socket remains in good working condition for a longer period, reducing the need for frequent repairs or replacements.

Application Scenarios

• Ideal for use in all types of hidden sockets, whether in residential, commercial, or industrial settings. It enhances the functionality and convenience of accessing electrical outlets while maintaining a clean and unobtrusive appearance.
• Suitable for new construction projects where hidden sockets are being installed, as well as for retrofitting existing sockets. It can be easily incorporated into different socket designs and models.

Installation and Maintenance

• Installation: The installation process is straightforward. The damper is attached to the hidden socket cover and the associated mechanism using simple screws or clips, depending on the specific design. Clear installation instructions are provided to ensure proper alignment and connection.
• Maintenance: Regular inspection of the damper for any signs of wear, such as leakage of oil, loose parts, or a decrease in damping performance, is recommended. If any issues are detected, the damper can be easily replaced. Cleaning the damper with a mild detergent and a soft cloth is sufficient to keep it in good working condition.
