ADJUSTABLE MOUNT FOR ENGINE ACCESSORY

DRIVE April 17, 2024
Source
A first bracket adapted (42) to be coupled to an aircraft engine accessory (30) has a first bore with a first annular bushing (54) with a threaded radially inner surface extending through the first bore. A second bracket (44) operatively coupled to an engine (10) at mounting location (L1) has a second bore with a second annular bushing (54) with a threaded radially inner surface extending through the second bore. A threaded stud (52) extends axially through the first and second bushings (54) and is engaged with their threaded inner surfaces. Rotation of the first and/or second bushings (54) varies the relative axial positions of the first and second bushings (54) on the stud, thereby adjusting an axial gap between first and second brackets (42, 44). First and second nuts (56) axially retain the mount (40', 40) together with the axial gap between the first and second brackets (42, 44) fixed.
