ABSTRACT:
An improved damping assembly is provided, comprising a housing, a spring, a pressure plate, and an actuator integral to the pressure plate. The housing is made up of first and second outer plates spaced apart from one another by a plurality of spacers. The pressure plate is positioned inside the housing, and is freely movable within the housing between the inner surface of the first and second outer plates by pressure exerted against the actuator. The spring is positioned between the pressure plate and the inner surface of the first plate, thus urging the pressure plate towards the inner surface of the second plate. An object, inserted into the housing between the pressure plate and the second plate, is held in place between the pressure plate and the second plate.
