Abstract
A baseplate for a seismic vibrator is formed from two identical cast plate members having stiffening ribs and alternating plug and socket cones along the ribs. The cast plate members are arranged together to align opposed plug and socket cones of the plates and are connected by attaching mechanisms passing through holes in the aligned cones. The aligned cones accomplish a wedging or clamping action on each other when the plate members are connected.
