Abstract
The reservoir has three fastening elements, on the upper part of the reservoir and the two others on the lower part of opposed end faces. The fastening elements are provided at the ends of an axle mounted in elastic support means and in a tubular passage parallel to the adjacent face of the housing and parallel to the axis of the turbojet engine, secured to the reservoir and passing through it from end to end.
Claims8
An oil reservoir with an antivibration suspension to be fastened to the housing of a turbojet engine, characterized in that the reservoir is in the form of a volume inscribed approximately in the frustum of a quadrangular prism having two large opposing faces (3, 4), one of which (3) is located concentrically to the housing and in its vicinity, and interconnected by means of end faces (10, 11) and upper (5) and lower (6) faces parallel to the axis of the turbojet engine, said reservoir having a fastening element (7) at the upper part of the reservoir and two fastening elements (8, 9) on the lower part of the end faces (10, 11) carried by the ends of an axle (12) which extends parallel to the axis of the turbojet engine, passing through the reservoir from end to and mounted in elastic support means within a tubular passage (13) which also extends through the reservoir, said elastic support means consisting of at least two sleeves (27) of an elastic material, surrounding the axle (12) and being maintained spaced apart by means of a tubular spacer (28) on the axle (12) which spacers has circular stops (29), abutting against end surfaces of the sleeves (27), and means for the axial displacement (30, 31) of the sleeves and the spacer being provided at one end of the axle (12).
