ABSTRACT:
A mounting device providing a mechanically stable, spring-biased, yieldable suspension for printed circuit boards, and other vibration and shock sensitive objects, with respect to an article, and also providing frictional dissipation of the energy of shock and/or vibration into heat so that suspension vibration is rapidly dampened. The mounting device according to the present invention is composed generally of a pair of T-brackets, each T-bracket has a base and a perpendicularly oriented flange medially located on the base whereby each opposite end of the printed circuit board is connected with a respective flange of the T-brackets; two pairs of S-springs, each S-spring having a pseudo "S" profile characterized by an elongatedly curved section terminating at a distal end, an acutely curved section terminating at a near end, and a moderately curved section located therebetween, wherein the distal end of each S-spring of each pair of the S-springs is connected with a respective surface of two opposing surfaces of the article and wherein the apical of the acutely curved section of each S-spring of each pair of S-springs resiliently biases against a respective base; and a pair of V-springs, each having a pseudo "V" profile characterized by an apex and a pair of feet, wherein the apex of each V-spring is connected with a respective base and the feet thereof are resiliently biased against a respective adjacent article surface.
