Abstract

An engine mount, for mounting the casing of an aircraft engine to the fuselage or wing of an aircraft, e.g. via a pylon, comprising first and second links (4, 5) having connector formations for connection to respective mounting formations (3A, 3B) and support formations (7, 8) on the engine casing and aircraft mounting structure. Each of the first and second links (4, 5) is typically connected by a pin between the mounting formations (3A, 3B) and support formations (7, 8). Each link has a further connector formation arranged such that the connector formation of the first link (4) is arranged to be offset from the connector formation of the second link (5). The connector formations are joined by an intermediate link (26). The mount allows lateral forces and torque to be resolved in such a way as to substantially avoid lateral displacement of the engine away from a central plane. The intermediate link (26) may also provide a failsafe catcher arrangement in the event that the first (4) or second (5) link fail.
