Abstract 493,120. Resilient mountings. JULIEN, M. F. A., and PAULSEN, J. F. March 30, 1937, No. 7982/38. Convention date, March 28, 1936. Divided out of 493,107, [Group XXXIII]. [Class 108 (iii)] [Also in Group XXXIII] Rubber supports at each end of an aircraft engine comprise, Fig. 1, a metal ring 19a on the engine adhesively connected between rubber rings 21a which are adhesively connected to cylindrical parts 20a on the frame of the aircraft. A similar mounting is employed at the rear of the engine. In Fig. 3, the engine is carried by links 5 having extensions 22 to which are secured links 5a extending between the cylinders. Brackets 9a extend from the engine and are supported by rubber mountings in rings 6a. In Fig. 7 the engine is secured to elastic supports comprising rings 24a, 24b which are supported by other elastic supports 25a, 25b connected to the aircraft frame. The supports provide longitudinal as well as angular oscillation about the crankshaft axis.
