ABSTRACT:
The apparatus is employed to fixedly position an internal combustion engine upon a frame. The engine is normally provided with a pair of oppositely positioned arms which are affixed to the engine and project outwardly for connection to a frame. A supporting structure intermediate the engine and the frame is connected to the arms extending from the engine at a first point and to the frame at a second point. This supporting structure comprises a first and second spaced apart generally U-shaped members which have sloping parallel sides provided with a resilient mass therebetween. The first member is provided with a cover plate which is affixed thereto, and thereby forms a hollow chamber with the first member. Within this hollow chamber is disposed another resilient mass that in turn is enclosed by an abutment positioned thereabove. The second member is likewise provided with still another resilient mass which is positioned on a surface beneath the first member. The supporting structure defines the limit of travel of the engine due to external forces such as vibration.
