Abstract:
1. A three parameter, multi-axis isolator for deployment between a mass and a base, the three parameter, multi-axis isolator comprising: an isolator housing mountable to the base; opposing bellows sealingly disposed within the isolator housing; opposing hydraulic chambers defined, at least in part, by the opposing bellows and configured to be filled with a damping fluid; and a damper piston movably suspended within the isolator housing between the opposing bellows and configured to be coupled to the mass, the opposing bellows deflecting with movement of the damper piston along multiple axes to reduce the transmission of vibrations between the mass and the base; wherein, when the opposing hydraulic chambers are filled with the damping fluid, the damping piston displaces a damping fluid volume when moving in an axial direction by a first amount that is substantially equivalent to the damping fluid volume displaced by the damper piston when moving in a lateral direction by the first amount.
