Improvements in or Relating to Skids for Rotating Machinery Abstract A skid is disclosed which is particularly suitable for supporting rotating machinery in environments where it is exposed to temperature variations and external mechanical forces and where failure of the machinery can result in the generation of an extremely high torque which has to be absorbed. The skid basically comprises a machinery support platform which is connected to an elongate torsion resist- ing member in torque transmitting relationship and only three spaced supporting members each incorporating a universal joint and rigidly connected to the torsion resisting member. The torsion resisting member is prefer- ably of hollow circular cross-section throughout its length and is disposed below the medial centre line of the support platform and the three supporting members are disposed at the corners of an isosceles triangle and incorporate means allowing for limited movement of the torsion resisting member relative thereto.
