Patent ID: 7128302

Claim:
A support system for an air handling unit comprising: a first frame member, the first frame member supporting a component of an air handling unit; a second frame member, the second frame member supporting the first frame member; a vibration isolator disposed between the first frame member and the second frame member, the vibration isolator to substantially vibrationally isolate the component of the air handling unit from the second frame member, the vibration isolator comprising: a resilient device having opposed ends; a first retainer abutting the second frame member, the first retainer being configured to receive one end of the resilient device; a second retainer, the second retainer being configured to receive the other end of the resilient device, the second retainer being disposed adjacent the first frame member; a tensioning member adjustably connected to the second retainer along a first axis, the tensioning member being disposed to abut the first frame member to support the weight of the first frame member and the component of the air handling unit and to compress the resilient device between the first retainer and the second retainer; and a stabilization system to constrain relative movement between the first retainer and the second retainer comprising: a guide member, the guide member structurally carried by the first frame member along a second axis by at least two positions, the second axis being substantially parallel to the first axis and not coaxial with the first axis; and a structural member having a first end and a second end, the first end of the structural member secured to the second frame member and the second end of the structural member slidably engaging the guide member between the at least two positions of the first frame member; and wherein the second end of the structural member substantially constraining movement of the component of the air handling unit along the second axis between the at least two positions of the first frame member.
