682A GAS SPRING Abstract of the Disclosure A gas spring comprising a cylindrical body having a base wall and an integral side wall with an open upper end defining a bore. The bore includes a lower cylindrical portion and an upper cylindrical portion of greater diameter than the lower cylindrical portion defining a shoulder. A piston of constant diameter is positioned in the bore and has a radial flange on its lower end with a wear bearing contacting the lower portion of the bore. An annular retainer is positioned on the shoulder and is adapted to be engaged by the flange on the piston. An annular end cap is threaded in the upper cylindrical portion of the bore and maintains the retainer against the shoulder. An annular lock nut is threaded in the upper portion of the bore and locks the end caps in position. Circumferentially spaced radial openings are provided adjacent the periphery of the lock nut for venting gas during disassembly if any gas remains. A charging valve and a rupture plug including pressure relief disc are provided in the base wall. In one form, the gas spring includes a plurality of longitudinal spaced annular ribs which provide heat dissipation.
