ABSTRACT:
A structure including two brackets extending from the engine casing in opposite directions normal to the axis of aligned output shafts of the engine, two pairs of variable-volume supporting units bearing against the top and bottom surfaces of the adjacent one of the two engine brackets, and a control valve arranged normally to interconnect the upper and lower supporting units in one pair with the lower and upper ones in the other pair, respectively. The two pairs of supporting units so interconnected exhibit an overall spring constant the magnitude of which is reduced upon vertical vibration of the engine and raised upon angular displacement thereof about the axis of the aligned output shafts so that such vibration and angular displacement can be effectively suppressed.
