Description

[0001] Cross-references to related applications [0002] This US patent application claims the benefit of US Provisional Patent Application No. 60 / 629,044, filed November 18, 2004. technical field [0003] The present invention relates generally to floating damper devices and, more particularly, to small gear dampers using damping media or fluids as the damping means. Background technique [0004] Small bumpers have many uses and are used to control the motion of objects. Bumpers are commonly used in automobiles, such as glove box doors, cup holders, auxiliary handles, etc. The bumpers are used to control the natural gravitational motion of these parts and to provide the desired "touch" to the motion of the parts. In addition to automobiles, bumpers are known to be used in such devices as, but not limited to, furniture, instruments, electronic equipment and other devices having moving parts. [0005] A commonly used snubber design is known to provide resistance to gear mo...
