SYSTEM FOR REDUCING VIBRATIONS

Abstract

A system (2) is disclosed for reducing vibrations is disclosed. The system (2) comprises a first element (4), a second element (6), and one or more spring systems (12a,12b,12c), preferably geometric anti-spring systems (12a,12b,12c), that are configured to prevent vibrations, in particular vertical vibrations, from travelling from the first element (4) to the second element (6). Each spring system (12a,12b,12c) of the one or more spring system (12a,12b,12c) comprises a plurality of compressed springs (14). Further, each spring (14) out of the plurality of compressed springs (14) comprises a first end (A) and a second end (B). Herein, the first end (A) is connected to the first element (4) and the second end (B) is connected to the second element (6). Further, the plurality of compressed springs (14) comprises a first spring and a second spring and a distance (d1) between the first end (A) of the first spring and the second end (B) of the first spring is equal to or larger than a distance (d2) between the first end (A) of the first spring and the second end (B) of the second spring.
