MULTIDIRECTIONALLY DEFLECTABLE MOUNTING APPARATUS AND METHOD
A multidirectionally deflectable engine mounting apparatus includes a laterally oriented base surface and a longitudinally extending elongate shaft having a laterally oriented shaft flange. The shaft flange is longitudinally adjacent to the base surface. A resilient washer is located directly longitudinally between the base surface and the shaft flange. A top plate includes a plate aperture. The shaft extends longitudinally through the plate aperture. The top plate is attached directly to the base surface with the resilient washer and shaft flange located longitudinally between the base surface and at least a portion of the top plate.

MOUNTING CHASSIS FOR GENSET WITH REDUCED CLEARANCE
A genset chassis for mounting a genset includes an engine and generator thereon includes a pair of inner beams and an outer beam coupled to an outer sidewall of a corresponding inner beam. The outer beams are vertically offset from the corresponding inner beam such that at least a portion of the outer beams is higher than a corresponding inner beam. The outer beams are structured to be positioned on mounting members positioned on a surface so that a first distance between the at least a pair of inner beams and the surface is less than a second distance between the plurality of outer beams and the surface. The inner beams are structured to mount at least a portion of the genset thereon such that a part of the at least a portion of the genset is lower than the plurality of outer beams.

ELECTRIC MOTOR CONVERSION SYSTEM
An internal combustion engine to electric motor conversion system for a work machine is provided. The electric motor conversion system is sized to substantially conform to a footprint of the internal combustion engine on the work machine. The electric motor conversion system includes an electric motor, a power distribution unit and a connecting bracket. The electric motor is configured for direct mounting on a frame of the work machine. The power distribution unit is separate from and positioned atop the electric motor. The power distribution unit controls operation of the electric motor. The connecting bracket is separate from the electric motor and power distribution unit. The connecting bracket includes a base, first attachment elements extending from a lower surface of the base for attachment to the electric motor, and second attachment elements extending from an upper surface of the base for attachment to the power distribution unit.
METHOD AND ADAPTER STRUCTURE FOR INSTALLING A COMPRESSOR AND A GAS TURBINE
A method for installing a compressor and a gas turbine of a first type at a position of an existing power plant where previously a compressor and a gas turbine of a second type were installed on a foundation specially designed for the second type. The two types differ from each other at least with respect to the position and/or the number of anchoring points at which the compressor and the gas turbine are connected to the foundation via support structures. The installation of the new compressor and the new gas turbine is carried out using an adapter structure on the existing foundation. A corresponding adapter structure is provided.
OVERLAPPING MODULAR MAT SYSTEMS
Mats and methods associated therewith are described. The mats include a main body defined by a plurality of sidewalls and two exterior surface walls opposing each other. The main body includes a pattern of internal walls that define internal voids within the main body. At least one primary structural support rib is arranged within the main body and extends between the two surface walls and from one of the plurality of side walls to another of the plurality of side walls. The at least one primary structural support rib traverses the internal voids defined by the pattern of internal walls.
VIBRATION ISOLATION SYSTEM WITH ONE OR MORE MAGNETIC ACTUATORS
An active vibration isolation system with a magnetic actuator where the magnetic actuator includes a coil carrier with at least one coil which engages in a magnetic actuator without touching it so that it takes the form of a linear motor. The magnetic actuator has a magnetic shield with an opening through which the coil carrier extends into the magnet carrier.

Efficient Vibration Reduction and Isolation Base Supported by Chained Panel Fluid Bladder
The present disclosure provides an efficient vibration reduction and isolation base supported by a chained panel fluid bladder, including a chained panel, the vibration reduction fluid bladder, vertical limiting devices and a bottom plate. The chained panel is a discontinuous structure formed by connecting chained substructure panels in series by panel hinge devices. The vibration reduction fluid bladder and the vertical limiting devices are fixedly installed between the chained panel and the bottom plate. The chained panel is constructed based on the impedance mismatch principle and provided with a mechanical device. Mechanical vibration energy is dissipated twice by the chained panel and the vibration reduction fluid bladder, thereby greatly reducing influences of mechanical device operation on a hull structure. The present disclosure abandons a traditional base design of a continuous panel, is simple in structure and good in vibration reduction performance, and has good economy and wide application prospects.
