ABSTRACT:
In a device for the support of a vibration exciting apparatus in a spacecraft subjected to gas pressure under weightlessness or microgravitational conditions, especially an apparatus for physical training of a astronaut, a platform for the fastening of the apparatus is provided. For elimination of possible effects upon micro-g sensitive experiments, the platform's position or attitude in the spacecraft can be positioned so that the spacecraft is decoupled from disturbances. For the attitude control, either an aerodynamic stabilization or an actively regulatable linear structural connection with spring and damper effects is provided wherein the energy for the attitude control is produced from the conversion of mechanical energy of the vibration generating apparatus or the training activity of the astronaut.
