SINGLE COMPENSATING STABILIZER SYSTEM

摘要

A stabilizer system including generally first and second pivotal components interconnected by at least one stabilizer member that dampens both compressive and tensile loads applied to the stabilizer member. The stabilizer member has opposing ends pivotally coupled to an upper anchor of one of the first and second pivotal components and a lower anchor of the other of the first and second pivotal components. The stabilizer member includes a resilient compressible member disposed in a housing between first and second substantially radial flanges of a linking member. The resilient compressible member is compressible between a first end portion of the housing and the second substantially radial flange when the housing and the linking member are in compression, and the resilient compressible member is compressible between a second end portion of the housing and the first substantially radial flange when the housing and the linking member are in tension.
