DEFINITION

Classification: 248/562

Including additional energy absorbing means, e.g., fluid or friction damping, etc.:

(under subclass 560) Structure comprising energy absorbing means, in addition to the resilient means, acting between a vibrating component and a stationary component.

(1) Note. The inherent hysteresis, which all springs possess, is not considered an additional means.
