Abstract

A dampening system for a miniature high-speed turbojet engine provides single or multiple resilient mountings for forward and aft bearings which mount a rotor shaft. The self-induced first engine order of the rotating rotor shaft is transmitted through the forward and aft bearing and is then absorbed in the resilient mountings.
