ABSTRACT:
An isolation mount mounts a device, such as an acoustic projector or trancer, to a hull structure while mechanically and acoustically isolating the device from the hull structure. The isolation mount comprises an isolation collar made of an elastomeric material that surrounds at least a portion of the device. A device mounting member made of rigid material is coupled to one end of the isolation collar, for mounting to the device, while a hull mounting member made of a rigid material is coupled to the other end of the isolation collar for mounting to the hull structure. At least a portion of the device is received within a device receiving region formed by the device mounting member and the isolation collar. The isolation mount is adapted to be used with an existing mounting arrangement, such as around an existing aperture in a hull structure, and is capable of providing a waterproof mount.
