Seats in vehicles may include a seat cushion having a seating surface, a vibration isolation structure and a foam structure, with the seating surface configured to support an occupant. The seat cushion may include either a seat bottom or a seat back, with the vibration isolation structure configured to evenly distribute forces exerted by the occupant. The vibration isolation structure may include a plurality of individual lattice blocks. The plurality of individual lattice blocks may occupy a pattern based on a spatial weight distribution of an average-sized occupant or a pattern based on a spatial weight distribution tailored for a specific occupant. The plurality of individual lattice blocks may cooperate to provide the even pressure distribution against forces exerted by the occupant. The vibration isolation structure may isolate vibration in a range from about 0.5 Hz to about 5.0 Hz.

A method to improve vibration isolation in semiconductor process level inhibits vibration frequencies transmitted though building structure from production tools, pumps, compressors, chillers, AHUs (Air Handling Units), and footfalls traffic on raised floor system on to tool pedestals and pads from affecting semiconductor fabrication processes. The tool pedestal/pad for modern semiconductor FABs are required have very small tolerance to ambient vibration. Therefore, reduction and isolation of vibration of tool pedestal/pad is the key requirement for safe, reliable and uninterrupted operation of modern semiconductor FABs. Sound proofing material and foam is injected into hollow steel and/or aluminum support members and sound proofing adhesives and/or caulking are applied at points of connections in conjunction with mechanical fastening. In various applications, placement of shaped wielded rod utilized for dissipating vibration energy in center of hollow member which is surrounded with sound proofing material and/or foam.

An energy management jounce bumper assembly absorbs energy between a first component and a second component of a vehicle. The energy management jounce bumper assembly includes a bumper axially compressible between the first and second components. A plate is connected to the bumper. The plate has a body portion having a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface. A first plurality of ribs is disposed on the first surface and a second plurality of ribs is disposed on the second surface. The body portion of the plate has a standard position wherein the body portion is either one of planar and non-planar and has a first height. The plate is adaptable between the standard position and a compressed position wherein the body portion is either one of non-planar and planar, respectively, and has a second height that is less than the first height.

A shock-absorbing device for a humanoid robot, comprises a rigid structure linked to the humanoid robot, a deformable outer shell, and a shock-absorber; the shock-absorber consisting of a flexible cellular structure comprising a set of cells emerging in a main direction, and being secured to the rigid structure at a first end in the main direction, and linked to the deformable outer shell at a second end opposite the first in the main direction. Advantageously, the outer shell is also linked directly to the rigid structure by means of at least one absorbent fixing of silent block type. The invention relates also to a humanoid robot, and in particular the head of a humanoid robot, comprising such a shock-absorbing device.

A damper for a linear element of a motor vehicle drivetrain such as a cable, a transmission oil fill tube or an engine oil dipstick tube constitutes a loose fitting sleeve or annulus disposed about the linear component. The damper may be positioned on a substantially vertical tube by a stop which may be any device such as a sleeve of material having an outside diameter larger than the inside diameter of the damper that is clamped or secured to the tube. Alternatively, the damper may be of sufficient length that one end may be clamped to the tube while the other end, which loosely fits on the tube, acts as a damper. The damper may be fabricated of a material such as closed cell foam or other relatively lightweight, resilient and compressible material.

An inexpensive, lightweight, compressible, shock absorbing, and resilient fluid for use in padding applications is presented. A fluid pad can comprise closed-cell foam beads and a surrounding fluid housed in a thin plastic bladder. The closed-cell foam beads can be exactly flooded by the fluid. Alternatively, the fluid can lubricate the closed-cell foam beads. The surrounding fluid may also comprise solid phase microballoons. The addition of the closed-cell foam beads can result in the overall fluid in the bladder being lighter in weight. The fluid pad with the closed-cell foam beads can be compressible and resilient. The fluid pad with the closed-cell foam beads can be shock absorbing with respect to impact loads or vibrations. The addition of the closed-cell foam beads can lower the cost of the fluid pad insert.
