Abstract
An air turbine starter includes a support structure and a turbine having a shaft and a rotor that extends away from the shaft in a radial direction. The air turbine starter also includes a mount structure that supports the turbine for rotation relative to the support structure. The mount structure is configured to transfer a force from the turbine to the support structure. The mount structure includes a deformable member that is configured to deform when the force exceeds a predetermined threshold.
