Abstract: An equipment mount for isolating equipment from shock loads and acoustic vibrations has a ring-shaped base mounted to a foundation. A generally cylindrical retainer has an X-shaped cross section and a pair of contact surfaces forming the X-shaped cross section and disposed at an angle relative to the axis of the retainer. The retainer is movable relative to the base. A generally cylindrical resilient member is disposed between the base and the retainer. The resilient member includes a kick segment at either end thereof projecting outwardly at an angle relative to the axis of the resilient member and having an end contacting one of the retainer contact surfaces when free standing. The resilient member is deformable under load so that a greater portion of at least one of the kick segments contacts at least one of the retainer contact surfaces to isolate the equipment from the load.
