Can Electric Suction Doors Be Forcibly Closed?
2 Answers
Electric suction doors can be forcibly closed. Here is more information about electric suction doors: 1. Introduction: Electric suction doors refer to a configuration where the door automatically closes until fully shut if it is not properly closed. This is a common comfort and safety feature in luxury cars, typically found in models such as the Mercedes S-Class, BMW 7 Series, Audi A8, Audi Q7, Lexus LS series, and all Bentley models. 2. Working Principle: The working principle of electric suction doors involves an electromagnetic coil installed on the door frame (or door edge). When the door is opened, current flows through the coil, creating an electromagnetic field. Due to this magnetic force, when the door is close enough to the frame, it automatically seals shut.
I think power-closing doors really don't require forceful slamming. This feature is designed to automatically latch when you gently push it closed. Slamming the door actually causes impact, which over time not only wears out the motor gears but also easily deforms the locking mechanism. I've seen many people habitually slam doors, resulting in power-closing failure within half a year. The correct way is to push the door to about 2-3 cm away from the latch and let the motor pull it in. Actually, the same principle applies to power liftgates - just gently press it closed. If you're worried about incomplete closure, you can periodically spray some lubricant on the hinges, but never use brute force like with regular car doors.
