Installation of gas-filled props of the luggage compartment lid
1 - holder with a spherical pin; 2 - gas-filled support; 3 - spherical pin
in the open (raised) position, the luggage compartment lid is held by two gas-filled telescopic props. The holding force of the open lid is from 50 to 100 N, the force required to lift them does not exceed 80 N. The props are connected to the body and the lid through spherical pins. The rods of the spherical pins are riveted in the corners, one screwed to the cover, and the other to the body. Gas-filled props must not be dismantled and repaired.
The gas-filled prop can be removed from the vehicle without dismantling the spherical pins. In heads for spherical trunnions, it, that is, a support, has cutouts for putting on trunnions. The cutouts are covered with a curly spring made of strip steel. The spring holds the spherical pin in the head. This spring can be pressed with a screwdriver, shifted and removed from the trunnions, the head of the support.
