ABSTRACT:
An improved vehicle-mounted support for isolating delicate loads from shocks and other disturbances imparted to the vehicle floor during movement thereof over rough terrain is described. A plurality of adjustable pneumatic springs are disposed in each corner of a load-bearing stiff frame for interconnecting the frame to the carrier floor. A steel rope or other flexible strand extends between the spring-supported frame and the vehicle floor for limiting vertical displacement of the frame, while a separate pivotal connection mounts the spring-supported frame for oscillation with respect to the vehicle floor in a plane perpendicular to the plane of travel of the vehicle. Additional resilient support blocks maintain a desired minimum spacing between the bottom of the frame and the vehicle floor, and a plurality of adjustable resilient rods or standards may be preset on the frame independent of the springs to maintain a desired, initially set orientation of the frame.
