Abstract

A mounting assembly for an electric motor with deep drawn endshields includes a resilient outer ring and a split inner ring for gripping engagement with an outer surface of a bearing endshield. The gripping engagement is sufficient to hold the mounting assembly to the motor but insufficient to deform the endshields. The inner ring is distanced slightly from first and second ends of the mounting assembly to isolate and damp motor vibration and prevent vibration transmission to a mounting base.
