US Patent 10173560 Isolation system for a seat

The present invention is generally related to isolation systems for various seating configurations. The isolation system may comprise a first set of isolators positioned perpendicular to a second set of isolators. The positioning of the first and second sets of isolators may enable the isolation system to exhibit a radial stiffness of at least 350 lbf/inch. The improved radial stiffness of the isolation system may dampen and attenuate the transfer of energy (e.g., vibrations) to the seat, which may facilitate a smoother ride for an operator sitting in the seat.
