Abstract
A front mounting for an annular combustion chamber comprises a flexible ring attached to an engine casing, and radial struts which are attached to the flexible ring and which engage bushes welded to a semi-circular section upstream wall. The arrangement restrains axial movement of the front end of the combustion chamber relative to fuel burners while the radial movement caused by differential thermal displacement to be absorbed by the flexible ring.
