Title:
APPARATUS FOR SEMI-ACTIVE ISOLATION OF PAYLOADS WITH LOW TRANSMISSIBILITY
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2001065136
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A payload isolation system (20) as shown in figure 3 for isolating a payload (101) from a base structure (102) upon which the payload is supported. The payload isolation system including: a motion constraint (10, 11) for maintaining a parallel relationship between the payload and the base structure; and a support (30) for providing vertical and/or lateral support of the payload relative to the base structure such that the transmission of vertical and/or lateral vibration between the payload and the base structure is suppressed. In a preferred embodiment the motion constraint includes mechanical linkages (10, 11).
