The **FRT-G1-R** is a specific model of a **Rotary Damper** manufactured by **Fuji Latex**. While it is a mechanical component, it is frequently used in the assembly of electronic devices and household appliances to control motion. --- ### 1. Component Specification Overview The FRT-G1-R is a small, gear-type rotary damper designed to provide resistance through viscous friction, ensuring smooth opening and closing of lids, trays, and drawers. | Feature | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Manufacturer** | Fuji Latex | | **Series** | FRT-G1 | | **Torque Rating** | 1.0 ± 0.2 mN·m (Standard) | | **Direction** | Right (Clockwise) | | **Gear Type** | Standard Spur Gear (usually 11-14 teeth depending on sub-batch) | | **Operating Temp** | 0°C to 50°C | ### 2. Internal Composition Although it does not contain integrated circuits, its design is critical for electromechanical systems: * **Viscous Oil (Silicone):** The core "part" is the internal silicone fluid. The viscosity of this oil determines the damping force. * **Rotor and Stator:** The internal vanes that move through the oil to create resistance. * **External Gear:** Connects to the rack or gear of the electronic device (e.g., a CD player tray). ### 3. Applications in Electronics The FRT-G1-R is commonly found in the following electronic hardware categories: 1. **Audio/Video Equipment:** Used in motorized CD/DVD trays to prevent them from "slamming" open or shut. 2. **Automotive Electronics:** Used in dashboard compartments, ash trays, and "soft-open" glove boxes. 3. **Home Appliances:** Used in control panels that flip down or lids on high-end washing machines. 4. **Office Hardware:** Slow-release mechanisms for printer paper trays or scanner lids. ### 4. Technical Characteristics * **Torque vs. Speed:** The resistance increases as the rotation speed increases. This is a linear relationship defined by the silicone's viscosity. * **Temperature Sensitivity:** Because it relies on fluid, the damping force becomes stronger in cold environments and weaker in hot environments. * **Durability:** Rated for approximately 50,000 to 100,000 cycles depending on the load. ---
