  • Patent number: 9394967
    Abstract: The present invention provides a three-dimensional shock-absorbing device, which comprises a base, a carrying base, and a carrying platform. The carrying base is disposed between the base and the carrying platform. A first elastic member is disposed between carrying base and the base for providing vertical shock-absorbing effect. A first limiting groove and a sliding member are disposed between the carrying platform and the carrying base for providing horizontal shock-absorbing effect. In addition, second elastic members connected to the base are disposed on the periphery of the carrying platform for providing horizontal and vertical shock-absorbing effects concurrently and thus achieving three-dimensional shock-absorbing effects. Moreover, the present invention has more support and less tipping. Besides, it is more durable.
