Abstract

An alternating-resilience engine mount consists of a supporting component and a supported component, both of which move back and forth across an axis. The supported component is supported by the supporting component through the intermediary of two series-connected resilient rubber components. The motion of the second resilient component can be impeded when necessary by a so-called "auxiliary device ". According to the invention, the two resilient components are interconnected and separated by a rigid tray.
