Abstract

A vibration isolating mount for connecting spaced structures and limiting noise transmission between the connected structures, such as between an aircraft and a turbine engine. The isolator comprises a pair of arms which are interconnected at one location by a torque tube pivotally connected to the aircraft structure and which are interconnected at another location by a tie brace which is also connected to the aircraft structure by a vibration isolator pad. The engine is connected to the arms by a hanger. The mount accepts various engine leads and reactions while minimizing the transmission of engine noise into the cabin of the aircraft.
