Abstract
A damping apparatus is provided having a payload member, an extension member, and a damping member. The extension member is coupled to the payload member such that when the payload member moves a first distance, the extension member moves a second distance greater than the first distance. The damping member applies a damping force to the extension member when the extension member moves. The application of the damping force to the extension member causes a damping force on the payload member that is greater than the damping force on the extension member. The damping apparatus may utilize permanent magnets and conductive extension members to generate the damping force.
