  • the spring force SF is the force that counteracts the weight W of the fluid injector system 10 to balance the fluid injector system 10.
  • the gas spring 50 is adjustable, so that if additional force is applied to the cylinder 56 and/or rod 58, the cylinder 36 moves in the direction of the rod 58 or vice versa. When this happens, the rod 58 takes up space within the cylinder 56, and the air within the cylinder 56 is further compressed. This increases the pressure of the air within the cylinder 56, and the increase in pressure can be measured in an increase in the spring force SF acting against the bolt 49 and mounting bracket 30. Typically, this compression occurs when the fluid injector system 10 is rotated, applying a greater force to the cylinder 56 that leads to its compression against the rod 58. As force is removed from the gas spring 50, the cylinder 56 and rod 58 expand back to their original positions. It is through this mechanism that the fluid injector system 10 is balanced about the pivot point 28.
