A device may include a body, springs, and a plunger. The body may include a back wall and a front wall. The body may have a cavity forming spring channels and at least one rail. The front wall may have an aperture extending into the cavity. Each spring may be implemented in one of the spring channels. The plunger may include a plunger head and a plunger rod extending from the plunger head and through the aperture. The plunger head may be configured to engage the springs. The plunger head may have at least one rail guide channel, each configured to accommodate one rail. When a compressive force is applied to the plunger rod, the plunger head compresses the springs as the plunger head travels in a first direction within the cavity. When the compressive force is reduced, the plunger head travels in a second direction opposite the first direction.
