ABSTRACT:
An engine mount (1) is disclosed which is particularly suitable for a propeller-driven aircraft. The engine mount (1) comprises a tubular frame structure (3) for the attachment of an engine (4) to a supporting structure, particularly to a cowling box (2). The frame structure (3) comprises a multitude of point-shape connected and braced members (8), (11), (12), (13), (15), and is part surrounding the engine (4). The engine (4) is bolted to mounts at one end of the tubular frame structure (3) in the direction (5) of drive, and, at its other end in the direction (5) of drive, the tubular frame structure (3) is, in turn, bolted to mounts on the supporting structure. According to the invention at least one member of the tubular frame structure (3) is an active member (12) the length of which can be changed under control.
