Abstract
A noise frequency and vibration absorbing mount is provided for microphones, particularly highly directional sound-gathering microphones, that, while achieving highly efficient reduction in the transmission of noise frequencies and vibrations, maintains directional alignment with the camcorder or camera, binoculars, rifle scope or whatever other equipment it may be mounted on regardless of directional change movements imposed on equipment mounting the microphone. The noise frequency, vibration absorbing and directional change stabilizing mount includes a hollow accordion pleated resilient material four walled enclosure fastened at its bottom to a mounting plate having two inside to outside small air flow dampening openings therein. The accordion pleated resilient material four walled enclosure is in rectangular elongate form in transverse planar cross section and is mold formed with a like density resilient material top connectable to a microphone and circuit case mounting connect member with the combined microphone (or sound and vibration sensitive device) case enclosed circuit and mounting structure having a combined weight in the two to five ounce range.
