Problems solved by technology

However, such manual adjustment may be inconvenient where the load may change frequently or the weight of the load may even fluctuate (such as in the case when the load is a person), since such loads need to be weighed frequently to determine that their weight has changed. What has changed in order to prepare for this manual adjustment

Embodiment Construction

[0015] It should be noted that while the following description and drawings focus on an implementation of an equipment suspension system in which the overall equipment includes the physical equipment implemented as a seat for a person to sit on, what is disclosed in the discussion also applies to equipment Other implementations of the suspension system. Other possible forms of suspended equipment include, but are not limited to, suspended trailer panels for tractor trailers, suspended boxes for recreational vehicles, suspended passenger compartments for aircraft, suspended pool tables for marine vessels, and entire room being hung. Other possible suspended device implementations to which the disclosure herein can be applied will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art.

[0016] It should be noted that while the discussion focuses on suspension systems that handle bumps along substantially horizontal and / or vertical axes and / or planes, this should not be considered as ...

Abstract

An apparatus meant to be incorporated into a suspension system (1000, 2000) suspending a plant (i.e., an overall plant that includes a physical plant (110) and possibly a load that the physical plant supports) of a vehicle acts to alter the spring constant of at least one spring (155, 156) of the suspension system (1000, 2000) in response to changes in the weight of the plant so that a resonant frequency of the at least one spring (155, 156) isolating the plant from a jolt encountered by the vehicle during travel remains substantially unchanged despite changes to the weight of the plant.

Description

technical field [0001] This invention relates to equipment suspension systems for supporting loads of varying weight. Background technique [0002] Equipment suspension systems have long been used in various vehicles to isolate cargo and / or personnel from the bumps encountered by the vehicle as it travels across roads, through water or water, through the air, and the like. Such equipment suspension systems can take any of a variety of forms, including suspended platforms on which cargo is placed, or suspended seats for personnel to sit on. Some such equipment suspension systems are passive suspension systems that use one or more types of springs (eg, mechanical springs, gas springs, etc.). Other equipment suspension systems are active suspension systems, using one or more types of actuators (eg, hydraulic rams, linear motors, etc.). Still other equipment suspension systems include various combinations of passive and active suspension elements. [0003] In equipment suspen...
