Patent ID: 8403287

Claim:
An equipment engine mounting system for mounting an equipment engine to an equipment frame, said equipment engine mounting system comprised of: a first engine mount disposed between said equipment engine and said equipment frame, said first engine mount comprised of: a first engine mount nonextensible inner member, said first engine mount nonextensible inner member having an outer bonding surface; a first engine mount nonextensible outer member, said first engine mount nonextensible outer member having an inner bonding surface; an intermediate elastomer between said first engine mount nonextensible inner member and said first engine mount nonextensible outer member, said first engine mount intermediate elastomer bonded to said first engine mount nonextensible inner member outer bonding surface and said first engine mount nonextensible outer member inner bonding surface; said first engine mount intermediate elastomer, said first engine mount nonextensible inner member, and said first engine mount nonextensible outer member forming a liquid housing cavity, said liquid housing cavity containing a first variable volume liquid chamber proximate said first engine mount nonextensible inner member and a second variable volume liquid chamber, said second variable volume liquid chamber distal from said first engine mount nonextensible inner member, said first variable volume liquid chamber segregated from said second variable volume liquid chamber by a nonextensible rigid liquid track member having a perimeter liquid track path; said first variable volume liquid chamber and said second variable volume liquid chamber filled with a mount liquid, said first variable volume liquid chamber in liquid communication with said second variable volume liquid chamber through said perimeter liquid track path, wherein a movement of said first engine mount nonextensible inner member relative to said first engine mount nonextensible outer member plungers said mount liquid in said first variable volume liquid chamber; a second engine mount disposed between said equipment engine and said equipment frame, said second engine mount comprised of: a second engine mount nonextensible frameside member, said second engine mount nonextensible frameside member having an outer bonding surface; a second engine mount nonextensible engineside member, said second engine mount nonextensible engineside member having an inner bonding surface; a highly damped elastomer between said second engine mount nonextensible frameside member and said second engine mount nonextensible engineside member, said highly damped elastomer bonded to said second engine mount nonextensible frameside member outer bonding surface and said second engine mount nonextensible engineside member inner bonding surface, said highly damped elastomer having a tan delta of at least 0.2 with said engine mounting system mounts inhibiting a transmission of a vibration of said equipment engine to said equipment frame.
