ABSTRACT:
An improved shock isolating mount is designed for securing a body part of vehicle to a support. The shock mount comprises a two-part spool that includes: a spacer formed from an annular flange integral with a tube, the tube projecting through apertures in mating elastically resilient bodies and a support part of a vehicle body part disposed between them; a thimble, formed from a flange integral with a tube designed such that the thimble tube can telescope into the spacer tube. The thimble tube is formed into a polygon shape at the tube shoulder adjacent the thimble flange and the spacer tube is formed in a matching polygon shape such that the thimble tube shoulder can mate with the spacer tube to prevent relative rotation of the thimble and spacer. The thimble tube has an enlarged end which is engaged by a plurality of inward protrusions mounted in the spacer tube to prevent the spacer and thimble assembly from accidental disengagement. The thimble has welded to its flange a nut to engage a threaded fastener inserted through the body part, through the spool tube, and into the thimble tube and nut. When tightened, the fastener draws the flanges of the spacer and thimble together to simultaneously securely clamp the support part of the vehicle body and secure the mounting part to the shock mount and the vehicle frame.
