Vibration isolator assembly

A gas turbine engine, comprising:

• a compressor section configured to compress a gas;
• a combustor section aft of the compressor section and configured to combust the gas;
• a turbine section aft of the combustor section and configured to extract work from the gas;
• and vibration isolator assembly, coupled between a turbine engine component and a structural member, and configured to attenuate a vibrational load from the structural member and,
• wherein, the vibration isolator assembly comprises vibration isolating bushing assembly comprising:
• a first T-bushing configured to receive a fastener;
• a second T-bushing configured to couple to the first T-bushing and the fastener;
• a first isolating washer;
• and
• a second isolating washer, wherein the first isolating washer and the second isolating washer are configured to couple between the first T-bushing and the second T-bushing,
• wherein each of the first T-bushing and the second T-bushing comprise an annular cylindrical structure extending between a base end and a flange end, wherein a flange extends about the flange end perpendicular to the annular cylindrical structure,
• wherein each of the first T-bushing and the second T-bushing comprise an annular cylindrical structure extending between a base end and a flange end, wherein a flange extends about the flange end perpendicular to the annular cylindrical structure,
• wherein the flange of the first T-bushing comprises a slot, and
• wherein the slot is configured to engage with a protrusion of the turbine engine component and inhibit the first T-bushing from rotating with respect to the turbine engine component.

An article of manufacture including a vibration isolating bushing assembly, comprising:

• a first T-bushing comprising a first annular cylindrical structure extending between a first base end and a first flange end, wherein a first flange extends about the first flange end perpendicular to the first annular cylindrical structure;
• a second T-bushing comprising a second annular cylindrical structure extending between a second base end and a second flange end, wherein a second flange extends about the second flange end perpendicular to the second annular cylindrical structure,
• wherein, the second annular cylindrical structure is disposed within an inner diameter of the first T-bushing and wherein the second annular cylindrical structure comprises a threaded surface at an inner diameter of the second annular cylindrical structure;
• and
• an isolating washer comprising a flexible material coupled about an outer diameter of the first annular cylindrical structure and compressed between the first flange and the second flange,
• wherein the flange of the first T-bushing comprises a slot, and
• wherein the slot is configured to engage with a protrusion of a turbine engine component and inhibit the first T-bushing from rotating with respect to the turbine engine component.
