Abstract

See full text

A method and device for a compact shock isolation apparatus are disclosed. The apparatus is adapted for mounting a sensitive component to a base. The apparatus includes a collar, a plurality of axial flexures mounted to the base to attenuate an axial shock force/acceleration. A plurality of radial flexures extend axially between the collar and the axial flexures, connecting each of the axial flexures to the collar to attenuate radial and/or circumferential shock forces/acceleration. A plurality of attachment pads disposed between adjacent radial flexures extend axially from the collar toward the axial flexures and attach to the sensitive component. The shock isolation apparatus supports the sensitive component in non-contacting proximity to the base. The apparatus optionally includes vibration dampening material disposed between the sensitive component and the axial flexures and/or the radial flexures.
