A shock absorber for a vehicle, the shock absorber having an absorber body with an outer surface, and a movable piston having a first end configured to couple with the vehicle, and a second end disposed within the absorber body. There is a magnet assembly disposed around and external of the movable piston at the second end. The absorber has a sensor assembly having a sensor body coupled with the outer surface. An inner sensor body has a sensor disposed therein configured to detect a change in a linear position of the magnet assembly.

Vehicle suspension kit having multi-purpose shock absorber and related

A multi-purpose shock absorber for a vehicle suspension having an absorber body with an outer surface, and a movable piston having a first end disposed within the absorber body and a second end configured to couple with a part of the vehicle. There is a magnet assembly disposed around and external of the movable piston at the second end. The absorber has a sensor assembly having a sensor body coupled with the outer surface. An inner sensor body has a sensor disposed therein configured to detect a linear change in a position of the magnet assembly.

A whole volume neck coil for MRI includes an anterior and posterior saddle coil, the latter attached to a base. The anterior coil is held in an open framework, hinged against an extension tower attached to the base. The hinge axis is angled to the medial axis to provide greater entry area for the patient's head and shoulders. The extension tower also provides adjustment of the anterior coil toward and away from the base by means of a sliding carriage attached to the extension tower. The coils are passively decoupled from the RF excitation field by means of back-to-back diodes which insert a 'pole' forming network into the coils. A method of calculating the values of the network components is taught that accounts for significant diode junction capacitance.
