Abstract

Thermal degredation of elastomeric pads (74, 76) in a vibration isolating mount (40) intended for use in a high temperature environment such as posed by a boiler (26) is avoided with a construction including an inner annular element (42) secured to the boiler (26) and having an axial face (52) directed toward the boiler (26), an intermediate annular element having a face (72) facing, but axially spaced from the face (52) and radial projections (64) extending radially outwardly of the periphery of the element (42). An outer element (54) has portions (55) aligned with the projections (64). Elastomeric pads (74) extend between the intermediate and the outer elements while pads (76) extend between the intermediate and inner elements with the intermediate elements shading the pads (74, 76) from radiant energy emanating from the boiler (26).
