    摘要: An apparatus for suppressing oscillations of an oscillating body includes a magnetic base and a magnetic stabilizing mass pivotably coupled to the magnetic base by a pivot assembly. The pivot assembly defines a pivot axis about which the magnetic stabilizing mass is pivotable, relative to the magnetic base, between a first position and a second position. The magnetic stabilizing mass has an equilibrium position between the first position and the second position. The magnetic base produces magnetic fields that magnetically repel the magnetic stabilizing mass away from the first position at least when the magnetic stabilizing mass is offset from the equilibrium position toward the first position, and that magnetically repel the magnetic stabilizing mass away from the second position at least when the magnetic stabilizing mass is offset from the equilibrium position toward the second position.

    摘要: An apparatus for damping involuntary hand motions occurring in at least first and second directions is provided, the first direction being opposite the second direction. The apparatus is securable to a hand and a forearm and comprises at least a first body having a terminal movable in an internal space in the body. The body contains a Non-Newtonian fluid. A link connects the terminal to a first portion of the apparatus.
