Abstract
A damper including a pair of damper members movable with respect to each other is disclosed. Each damper member has at least one wall correspondingly inclined to an axis of the damper. The inclined walls are relatively movable between open and closed positions. The walls include plural apertures separated by imperforate portions. The apertures in each wall are disposed such that the apertures of one of the damper members are at least partially blocked by the imperforate portions of the other damper member when the inclined walls are in the closed position.
