Abstract
A shock and vibration isolator for a member mounted on a body immersed in water including a housing, a rubber plunger mounted within the housing to define a chamber within the housing, vent apertures in the housing for permitting water to be pumped relative to the chamber in response to deflection of the rubber body, and a connector attached to the rubber body for mounting the member which is to be isolated from the body which is immersed in water, the rubber body and the associated chamber providing a combination of resilient and hydraulic support to thereby isolate the member from shock and vibration forces relative to the body.
