Flexure elastomer antenna isolation system

A vibration isolation system ( 100 ) for a payload ( 102 ). The vibration isolation system provides a level of vibration isolation for all vibration translational and rotational components, while minimizing the moment of the payload mass relative to the isolation system. The system includes a base (...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A vibration isolation system ( 100 ) for a payload ( 102 ). The vibration isolation system provides a level of vibration isolation for all vibration translational and rotational components, while minimizing the moment of the payload mass relative to the isolation system. The system includes a base ( 104 ) and a plurality of vibration isolators ( 114 ). Each vibration isolator includes a semi-rigid first support member ( 202 ) having first portion ( 204 ) positioned below the base and an opposing second portion ( 206 ) positioned above the base, and a second support member ( 208 ) having a first portion ( 210 ) fixed to the base and an opposing second portion ( 212 ) extending above the base. An elastomeric coupling ( 228 ) couples the first support member to the second support member at a height that is approximately equal to a height of a center of gravity ( 302 ) of a combined mass of the base and the payload above the base.
