Abstract
An apparatus shock isolation mounting system includes an apparatus, a base, and an apparatus chassis that carries the apparatus and is vertically slidable with respect to the base. A pair of oppositely disposed, self-centering preloaded springs with internal guide rods are attached between the apparatus chassis and the base. A pair of shock dampers are attached between the apparatus chassis and the base at different locations. The preloaded springs and the shock dampers cooperate to prevent damage to the apparatus by vibration and shock loadings.
