Shock isolation system
A shock isolation system includes at least one isolator configured to be removably secured to an exterior of a container and at least one foot in communication with the at least one isolator and configured to contact a support surface. The isolator has a first end proximate the support surface and an opposing second end distal from the support surface, and is configured to transition between a first, contracted position and a second, expanded position. In a stowed configuration of the system, the isolator is in the contracted position and a bottom end of the container is spaced apart from the foot at a first distance. In a deployed configuration of the system, the isolator is in the expanded position and a bottom end of the container is spaced apart from the foot at a second distance which is greater than the first distance.
Safe protection equipment for all vehicles and drivers from both front and rear
Safe protection equipment for all vehicles will significantly reduce the collision force by spring or hydraulic cylinder that absorb the colliding force, when the vehicle bumps to obstacle or two vehicles collide with each other. The reduced colliding force will be transferred to the chassis or frame of the vehicle. This equipment can be used on both front and rear of the vehicle. Combination of springs or hydraulic cylinder with different elasticity can reduce the collision smoothly.
This equipment will protect both vehicles and drivers without changing the current air-bag protection system. It will significantly reduce the damage for serious collision accidents.
This equipment can be attached to the vehicle chassis with different ways based on the type of the vehicle. The chassis and the frame may need some enhancement.
Safe protection equipment for all vehicles and drivers from both front and rear
Safe protection equipment for all vehicles will significantly reduce the collision force by spring or liquid cylinder when the vehicle bumps to obstacle or two vehicles collide with each other. This equipment can be used on both front and rear of the vehicle. Combination of springs or liquid cylinder with different elasticity can reduce the collision smoothly.
This equipment will protect both vehicles and drivers without changing the current air-bag protection system. It will significantly reduce the damage for serious collision accidents.
This equipment is attached to the vehicle chassis with a pair of pad to pass the reduced collision force to the elastic tire when colliding vehicles are running in straight line. Normally vehicle running in straight line has high speed and the collision force is strong. The elastic tire can reduce the collision force further.
HYDRAULIC TORQUE COMPENSATION DEVICE
A hydraulic torque compensation device comprises a pair of housings, a first housing including a first high pressure liquid chamber and a second low pressure liquid chambers, a second housing having a third high pressure liquid chamber, a fourth accumulator chamber, and a fifth low pressure chamber that is defined by a wall and an end of the second housing. A first main duct links the first chamber of the first housing to the third chamber of the second housing. A second main duct links the second chamber of the first housing to the fifth chamber of the second housing. Each housing also include a piston, the first chamber between a first piston body and an end of the first housing and the third chamber between a second piston body and the wall. The device ensures a counter action to engine loads when a positive torque is applied.
POSITION DEPENDENT DAMPER FOR A VEHICLE SUSPENSION SYSTEM
A damper assembly for a vehicle suspension system includes a primary damper and a secondary damper. The secondary damper includes a housing having a wall that at least partially surrounds at least a portion of the primary damper, the volume between the wall and the primary damper defining a chamber, and the wall defines an aperture. The secondary damper also includes a piston positioned within the chamber, a conduit defining a flow path that includes the aperture, and a valve disposed along the flow path. The secondary damper is configured to provide a damping force that varies based on the position of the piston within the chamber.

Front fork
A front fork includes a pair of dampers standing on both sides of a wheel. One of the pair of dampers is a magnetic viscous fluid damper configured to use a magnetic viscous fluid whose viscosity is changed by an action of a magnetic field as a working fluid, while the other of the pair of dampers is a liquid-pressure damper configured to use a liquid such as oil, water, an aqueous solution and the like as the working fluid.

Snubber for machine
A snubber for a machine includes a housing, a shaft and a pinion that is coupled to the shaft. The housing is mounted on an implement of the machine. The shaft is rotatably received within the housing and operatively coupled to a movable component of the implement. The snubber also includes a cylinder defining a cavity, a piston slidably received within the cylinder, a rack coupled to the piston, and a hydraulic device. The cylinder is at least partly disposed within the housing. The piston divides the cavity of the cylinder into a first chamber and a second chamber. The rack engages with the pinion to convert a rotation of the shaft into a linear movement of the piston. The hydraulic device is in fluid communication with the cavity and controls a flow of fluid between the first chamber and the second chamber to oppose rotation of the shaft.
