Shock suppressor
Abstract
A shock suppressor has a first base, a second base, a sliding holder assembly and a connecting device. The second base is parallel to the first base. The connecting device is slidably mounted between the first base and second base to connect the first and second bases. The first base abuts against the connecting device in a curved contact surface to provide a first sliding mechanism in multiple directions. The second base abuts against the connecting device to provide a second sliding mechanism in a unidirection. The sliding holder assembly is mounted between the connecting device and at least one of the bases in a universal contacting manner.

13 . The shock suppressor as claimed in claim 3 , wherein
the second base has a side facing the first base, two parallel side plates parallelly mounted on the side of the second base and a guiding block attached between the side plates to form the sliding channel between the side plates and the guiding block; the guiding block has a concave surface facing the first base; and one of the convex end of the connecting device corresponding to and matching with the concave surface on the guiding block.
14 . The shock suppressor as claimed in claim 13 , wherein the sliding channel has two sides; and
the connecting device has two guiding sides slidably and respectively abutting against the sides of the sliding channel.
15 . The shock suppressor as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the sliding channel has two sides; and
the connecting device has two guiding sides slidably and respectively abutting against the sides of the sliding channel.
16 . The shock suppressor as claimed in claim 15 further comprising a damping device mounted on at least one of the first base and the second base.
17 . The shock suppressor as claimed in claim 1 , wherein
the second base has a side facing the first base and a rail attached to the side facing the first base, and the rail has a curved rib with a concave surface facing the first base; and the connecting device has an engaging channel corresponding to and matching with the curved rib on the rail.
18 . The shock suppressor as claimed in claim 17 , wherein the sliding holder assembly comprises a first holder slidably mounted in the concave surface in the first base and having
a convex bottom abutting and matching with the concave surface in the first base; and a recess with a concave bottom being defined in the first holder at a side facing the second base to form an annular wall around the first holder; and the connecting device has a convex end formed on one end of the connecting device and corresponding to and matching with the concave bottom of the recess in the first holder.
