Various implementations include a clamping storage device. The device includes a clamping assembly having a proximal stop, a gas spring, and a distal stop. The proximal stop extends along a proximal stop longitudinal axis. The gas spring has a gas spring longitudinal axis, first end, and a second end. The first end of the gas spring is coupled to the proximal stop. The distal stop is coupled to the second end of the gas spring and extends along a distal stop longitudinal axis. The proximal stop longitudinal axis and the distal stop longitudinal axis are both locatable in an assembly plane that incudes the gas spring longitudinal axis. The gas spring is biased toward an extended position and urgable toward a retracted state. The gas spring is movable toward the extended position in an unlocked state and is prevented from being moved toward the extended position in a locked state.

Clamping storage device

Various implementations include an arm rest system. The system includes a housing, one or more actuators, and an arm cushion. The actuators are at least partially disposed within a cavity of the housing. Each of the actuators includes a cylinder defining an opening, a piston slidably disposed within the cylinder opening, and a piston rod having a first end coupled to the piston and a second end opposite and spaced apart from the first end. Each of the actuators is movable between a first position and a second position. One of the cylinder or the piston rod of each of the actuators is static with respect to the housing and the other is coupled to the arm cushion such that moving the actuators between the first and second positions moves the arm cushion relative to the housing.

Pop up arm rest

Various implementations include a sports board storage device. The device includes a housing, one or more linkages, a foot, and one or more linkage members. The housing has a first prong and a second prong. The one or more linkages are pivotably coupled to the first prong. The foot is pivotably coupled to the one or more linkages. The one or more linkage members are coupled to at least one of the one or more linkages. The one or more linkage members are movable relative to the housing to cause rotation of the one or more linkages and to cause the foot to move between a retracted position and an extended position. The foot is closer to the second prong in the extended position than it is in the retracted position.
