内容記述 | C-shaped cradles distribute weight of large objects. Originally developed for holding satellite in bay of Space Shuttle orbiter, concept also adaptable to such terrestrial uses as carrying odd-shaped equipment by truck. Cradle set consists of single prime cradle and several basic cradles. Composed of bar bent into a half circle, each cradle has own keel and longeron trunnions that brace structure by mating with receptacles in vehicle and its own foam pads, on which load rests. One 548-lb (249-kg) cradle supports up to 3,000 lb (1,361 kg); thus, 15,000-lb (6,800-kg) object requires five cradles distributed along its length. Through their trunnions, cradles spread weight of load along vehicle. |
