Abstract
An internal combustion engine for an automobile is encased in a sound-insulating casing and is mounted on a frame of the automobile via sound-proofing suspensions. The wall of the casing extends around the suspensions, at which point the casing is supported on the frame by means of casing wall portions. These casing wall portions are acoustically insulated from the remainder of the casing wall by sound-insulating intermediate layers, e.g. by flat, elastic, annular sealing rings.
