AUTOMOTIVE BODY FOR FRAGILE CARGOES Russian patent published in 2013 - IPC B60P3/00 B60P7/16 

FIELD: transport.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to automotive bodies, particularly, to those of transportation of fragile cargo. Container 3 is suspended from dampers 2 inside body frame 1. Every said damper 2 is composed of electrodynamic elastic support consisting of helical spring, controlled resistor arranged inside said spring, current source and amplifying inverter connected to the aforesaid gadgets and arranged between current source and spring. Every amplifying inverter is connected to electronic control unit with damper operating parameters selector. On damper expansion or contraction total spring stiffness varies to preset magnitude to maintain constant response of damper 2. Aforesaid damper operating parameters selector sets current in spring coils for forced variation of its stiffness and sensitivity of damping system.

EFFECT: expanded range of carried cargo weights, lower labor input in loading/unloading, better damping.
