Why do cushioning hydraulic hinges quickly lose their cushioning effect? _Hinge knowledge 2

In recent times, there has been an increasing demand from the online community to seek consultation from our factory regarding hinge-related issues. During these discussions, it has come to our attention that many customers have been experiencing problems with the cushioning hydraulic hinge, particularly its quick loss of cushioning effect. This has prompted them to inquire about the cushioning performance of the hinges produced in our factory. Undoubtedly, many of us have encountered similar issues. Some may have even purchased expensive hinges only to find that their damping effect is no different from ordinary hinges, and in some cases, even worse. Hinges play a crucial role in the functionality of furniture, as they are opened and closed multiple times a day in our everyday lives. Therefore, the quality of a hinge greatly affects the overall quality of the furniture. A hydraulic hinge that ensures automatic and silent door closure not only creates a harmonious and cozy atmosphere for homeowners but also adds a touch of sophistication to furniture and kitchen cabinets. These hydraulic hinges are affordable, making them widely accessible to many consumers, thus leading to their popularity. Nevertheless, with the increase in manufacturers entering the market, fierce competition has ensued. In an effort to gain market share, some manufacturers have resorted to cutting corners and compromising the quality of materials used. Consequently, these quality issues have arisen. Shockingly, some manufacturers fail to perform quality inspections before releasing their hydraulic hinges to the market. As a result, consumers who purchase these hinges are often left disappointed with their performance. The lack of cushioning effect in hydraulic hinges is primarily caused by oil leakage in the hydraulic cylinder's sealing ring, resulting in cylinder failure. While it is true that the quality of hydraulic hinges has improved over the years (excluding those produced by manufacturers that cut corners), it is crucial to select a reputable manufacturer to ensure the desired grade and taste of furniture are achieved. However, the question remains, how does one choose a hydraulic hinge that does not lead to a disappointing experience? A buffer hydraulic hinge utilizes the cushioning performance of liquid to create an ideal buffering effect. It consists of a piston rod, a housing, and a piston with through holes and cavities. When the piston rod moves the piston, the liquid flows from one side to the other through the through holes, thus providing the desired buffering effect. The buffer hydraulic hinge is highly favored by those aiming to create a warm, harmonious, and safe home due to its humanistic, soft, silent, and finger-safe features. As the number of users has increased, so has the number of manufacturers, leading to an influx of substandard products in the market. Many consumers have reported that these hinges lose their hydraulic function shortly after usage. Surprisingly, these buffer hydraulic hinges, despite being priced significantly higher, offer no discernible difference from ordinary hinges within a few months of usage. Understandably, this can be disheartening. Some users have even declared their unwillingness to use such hinges in the future. This situation reminds me of the alloy hinges from a few years back. The hinges, made from low-quality scraps, would break when screws were fastened, causing loyal consumers to turn their backs on alloy hinges. Instead, they redirected their attention towards sturdier iron hinges, ultimately leading to a decline in the market for alloy hinges. Therefore, I must implore buffer hydraulic hinge manufacturers to prioritize consumer satisfaction over short-term profits. In an era characterized by information asymmetry, where consumers struggle to discern between good and poor quality, manufacturers must shoulder the responsibility to deliver products of high quality. This will result in a win-win situation for both the market and profits. The quality of hydraulic hinges depends on the effectiveness of piston sealing, which is challenging for consumers to determine within a short timeframe. To select a high-quality buffer hydraulic hinge, consider the following factors: 1. Appearance: Manufacturers with advanced technologies prioritize impeccable aesthetics, ensuring well-handled lines and surfaces. Apart from minor scratches, there should be no deep marks. This represents the technical advantage of established manufacturers. 2. Consistency in door-closing speed: Pay close attention to any signs of the buffer hydraulic hinge becoming stuck or making strange noises. Significant disparities in speed indicate differences in hydraulic cylinder quality. 3. Rust resistance: The ability to withstand rust can be assessed through salt spray tests. High-quality hinges should exhibit minimal signs of rust even after 48 hours. However, be cautious of deceptive claims such as "tested for over 200,000 times for opening and closing" or "48-hour salt spray tested." Numerous profit-seeking manufacturers distribute their products without testing, leading consumers to frequently encounter hinges that lack cushioning function after just a few usages. With current domestic technological capabilities, hinges produced by domestic manufacturers can only withstand fatigue tests of up to 30,000 times of opening and closing, in contrast to the fantastical claims of reaching 100,000 times. Additionally, when you acquire a hydraulic hinge, forcibly accelerate the closing speed or forcefully close the cabinet door instead of letting the hinge do it automatically. Poor-quality cushioning hydraulic hinges tend to close rapidly, exhibit oil leakage in the hydraulic cylinder, or even worse, explode. If you encounter any of these issues, it is advisable to bid farewell to the buffer hydraulic hinge.
