Abstract: A damper coupler is provided. The damper coupler includes a first portion coupled to a first surface of a damper. The damper is removably coupled to a body of a vehicle. The damper coupler further includes a second portion coupled to a first section of the body of the vehicle. The damper coupler further includes a first mid-portion disposed between the first portion and the second portion. The first mid-portion transfers a first load between the first portion and the second portion, to limit a shear force in the damper.

Abstract: A damper coupler is provided. The damper coupler includes a first portion coupled to a first section of a body of a vehicle. The damper coupler further includes a second portion coupled to a second section of the body of the vehicle. The second portion extends through the second section and connects with a portion of a damper, which is removably coupled to the body of the vehicle. The damper coupler furthers include a first mid-portion disposed between the first portion and the second portion. The first mid-portion transfers a first load between the first portion and the second portion, to limit a shear force in the damper.

Abstract: An injection assisting apparatus for use with a disposable syringe includes a primary support attachable to the syringe barrel, a plunger head retainer connected to the primary support by a sliding shaft, and a plurality of finger rings attached to the support and retainer for moving one relative to the other to produce a corresponding movement of the plunger relative to the barrel of the syringe. In one preferred form, the primary support forms a clasp capable of snap-fitting about a portion of the barrel. In another preferred form, the primary support includes an alignment body pivotally connected to a barrel support frame. A thumb ring attached to the retainer is rotated with respect to the plane of the finger rings attached to the primary support, to conform closely to the natural orientation of the thumb with respect to the index and the middle fingers.
