ABSTRACT:
A gas cushion apparatus (10) includes first, second and third members (14,16,21) and with the first and second members (14,16) being connected together, and constructed such that the second member (16) is capable of being excited by vibration of the first member (14). A cushion device (20) controllably distributes a gas between the second member (16) and one of the first and third members at a preselected region (80) and reduces the transmission of vibratory forces from the second member (16) into one of the first and third member (14,21). The apparatus is particularly applicable to supporting a fender on a wheeled vehicle and minimizing noise transmission to an operator's compartment.
