Abstract:
1. A modified rocker assembly, comprising: an outer structure having a first offset end and a second end opposite the first offset end; an inner structure fitting within the outer structure, the inner structure also having a first end and having a second end opposite the first offset end, wherein the first end of the inner structure is pivotally connected to the first offset end of the outer structure, the first offset end of the outer structure and the first end of the inner structure pivoting about a same axis such that the inner structure pivots within the outer structure; and at least one torsion spring mounted on a first side of the inner structure, the at least one torsion spring rotationally biasing the inner structure relative to the outer structure, wherein the outer structure is offset toward a first side adjacent the first offset end creating a first offset portion to provide additional clearance on a second, opposite side.
