ABSTRACT:
A support system for preventing the displacement of a pendantly suspended body, such as a submersible, turbine or sump pumping apparatus, and comprising one or more fixed frame structures which surround the body below its point of suspensing and each of which has a plurality of abutment members disposed thereon about the periphery of the body, that cooperatingly engage a similar number of abutment plates on the body to hold it against lateral or pendulous displacement. When the body is inserted through the frame structures, it is oriented such that the abutment plates on its periphery pass into the interstices between the abutment members on the frame structures. Before the upper end of the body is fastened to its suspension mounting the body is rotated so that the outer edges of the abutment plates engage the outer edges of respective abutment members with a small clearance fit securing the body against movement. The ends of the outer edges of the abutment plates are rounded to facilitate smooth sliding engagement of the abutting surfaces.
