Abstract

An improved mounting for an acoustic pulsato rotor for suppression of spurious sounds utilizes a spring bias for axial thrust between the shaft ends and bearing cups. In one form, a plurality of thin spider legs extend from a rotor mounting panel in surrounding relationship to the rotor to provide the spring characteristics while being acoustically transparent to the sound radiation pattern that sweeps past. The spider legs have a quick fit, anti-noise twist lock connection to a central hub. Improved rubber-like grommets provide anti-shock and anti-noise mounting for the shaft. Improved rubber-like grommets in cooperation with a two part motor mounting provide anti-shock and anti-noise motor mounting without sacrifice of simple belt tension adjustment capability. A light weight back enclosure for the speaker acquires sound isolation characteristics of a sturdy structure by imposing stress on the enclosure.
