  • Resilient support blocks
    Patent number: 4936539
    Abstract: A support assembly is provided to support a body part, as of an automobile or other assembled article. The support assembly includes a support element on which the body part rests. The support element has a mounting plate secured on the assembly and a resilient pad portion secured to the plate. The resilient pad portion has an engagement surface which engages and supports the body part. The resilient pad portion has openings therein which soften the resilient pad portion so that relatively harder and more durable material may be used for the resilient pad portion, while still providing adequate deformation to the shape of the body part to prevent denting of the body part.
