Vibration isolation system for dagger mounted equipment

摘要

A vibration isolation mount, a vibration isolation system and a method of resiliently mounting a device, and particularly a device that is mounted in a cramped space with the vibration isolation mount including a dagger plate having an elastomer secured thereto to permit a resilient mounting of the dagger plate on a device and a dagger pin for mounting on the support housing for blind engagement with the dagger pin with the dagger pin forming a snug but non-interference fit with a sidewall of an alignment hole in the dagger plate. The method also includes the mounting of a device by resiliently securing a dagger plate to a device and then positioning the device on a dagger pin by moving the device along an axis parallel to the axis of the dagger pin and then securing a further portion of the device to a support housing.
