ABSTRACT:
A pivot type aircraft mounting for resiliently connecting a structure to an aircraft engine which uses a pivoting and siding joint on a beam at the engine attachment point, a vertically stiff and laterally soft intermediate pivot joint on the beam, and a resilient compression section near the end of the beam for reacting the engine loads into the structure and providing the desired spring rates in the vertical and lateral direction. The invention can utilize low friction pivoting and sliding joints such as nylon lines bearings or elastomeric bearings. The compression section can be metal mesh for high temperature applications or of elastomeric or laminated elastomeric construction for normal operating temperatures. The remote location of the compression section is particularly well suited for addition of fluid for adding damping or tuned absorber effects.
