Patent ID: 7028969

Claim:
A seismically restrained vibration isolating mounting device for seismically restraining and vibrationally isolating equipment from an equipment mounting surface, wherein the equipment is supported by an equipment support means, said mounting device comprising: a three-axis snubber adapted to mount to the equipment mounting surface, wherein said three axis snubber is adapted to restrain the equipment support means; a vibration isolator, adapted to support the equipment support means wherein said vibration isolator is further adapted to be supported by the equipment mounting surface, wherein said vibration isolator acts in the direction of gravity, and wherein said three axis-snubber is closer to the equipment supporting surface than said vibration isolator, and said vibration isolator is external to said three-axis snubber, further wherein said vibration isolator comprises a hanger rod and a resilient member, wherein said hanger rod is adapted to mount the equipment support means such that the equipment support means is between said resilient member and the equipment mounting surface, and wherein said hanger rod transfers a load from the equipment support means to said resilient member, and further wherein said vibration isolator further comprises a load plate and a resilient member support bracket, wherein said resilient member support bracket is adapted to mount to the equipment mounting surface, wherein said load plate transfers the load from the hanger rod to the resilient member, and wherein said resilient member is supported by said resilient member support bracket.
