More Information
Summary:A magnetically controlled friction damper (101) includes a housing (103) defining a cavity (105) and including a slot (109) therethrough. A movable member (107) is located within the cavity (105) and is movable relative to the housing (103). A magnetic field generator (115) located on either the housing (103) or the movable member (107) causes the housing (103) to press against the movable member (107) to develop a friction damping force.
