VIBRATION ISOLATION ASSEMBLY Abstract An assembly for adaptively controlling vibra- tion, shock, acceleration and position of an item mounted to the assembly independent of varying operating char- acteristics of the item or a support base for the assem- bly is provided. The assembly comprises an item to be controlled, a support platform for supporting the item, a viscous spring damper mechanically intercoupled between the item and the platform, first sensing means for sens- ing vibration, shock, acceleration and position of the item, second sensing means for sensing vibration, shock, acceleration and position of the support platform, a gas supply source for selectively supplying gas to the vis- cous spring damper, a fluid supply source for selectively supplying fluid to the viscous spring damper, and a logic control means for adjusting inputs from the gas supply source and the fluid supply source to selectively adjust the operation of the viscous spring damper and the dy- namic mechanical coupling of the item to the platform. The invention is particularly applicable as a mechanical coupler system to be used for the support of vibrating machinery on submarines.
