piston 202 in the chamber 122 the primary difference in the embodiment of fig4 is that the reservoir 310 floating piston 314 and gas pocket 318 are housed in a separate chamber 312 that is connected to the main damper with a fluid hose 301 in the damper of fig4 the piston is shown partway through a compression stroke as in fig2 with aperture 28 on the rebound side of the piston and the various flow directions illustrated with arrows as in the previous figures specifically fluid is exiting the compression side via port 30 and potentially migrating to both the rebound side path 150 and to the reservoir path 158 concurrently fluid is leaving the rebound side and traveling towards the reservoir along paths 155 and 157 in one embodiment a simplified non bypass type damper includes a compression isolator 5 in such embodiment not shown fluid travels during a compression stroke from the compression side of the piston to the rebound side of the piston only via flow such as along 48 through the piston fluid displaced by the incursion of rod 19 is pushed along with pressure exerted due to compression of the compression side toward the reservoir and floating piston in such embodiment the isolator 5 may have an aperture in lieu of aperture 100 as shown in the figures or apertures located near or about a center of the isolator.
