  • Patent number: 4687173
    Abstract: A mechanical and acoustical isolating enclosure for turntables and isolating base for speaker enclosures. A turntable is placed on the base-plate of the apparatus which is then covered and balanced. This in turn, reduces the transmission of mechanical and acoustical vibration (foot steps, doors closing, cabinet and speaker vibration, etc.) to the turntable. It is a double steel tubing frame suspension apparatus with rectangular concentrically arranged tubing frames circular in cross-section. The inner frame hangs from the outer frame by means of synthetic rubber rings which wrap around the two tubular frames at specific balancing points, allowing them to be elastically joined. The resilient load-supporting means and energy-dissipating means are both performed by the synthetic rubber rings.
