PURPOSE: Spring arrangement for mounting a vibration- or shock-sensitive apparatus(1) secured to a support(2) in a housing(3). CONSTITUTION: The support(2) is joined to the housing(3) by spiral spring elements(10, 13,14, 15) and fixed therein in such a way that each clamping force component of any spring(10, 13, 14, 15) acting on the support(2) in a particular direction is counteracted by at least one clamping force component exercised in the opposite direction by another spring(10, 13, 14, 15), so that the support(2) remains approximately in the middle of the free swinging space provided in the housing(3), whatever the mounting position of the housing(3) in a motor vehicle. The opposite clamping forces of the springs(10, 13, 14, 15) advantageously increase the spring resistance and thus the inherent frequency of the whole system, preventing undesirable resonance areas at low frequencies. |
