Abstract
A pivotally flexible motor mount for a rotary trenching tool allows for increased life of the overall system. A flexible motor mount includes a universal pivot arrangement that allows a motor housing to universally pivot relative to a boom to accommodate misalignment between a motor shaft axis and a rock wheel rotation axis. The flexible motor mount also includes a first pair of spherical connection joints aligned along a first pivot axis and a second pair of spherical connection joints aligned along a second pivot axis. The first and second pivot axes are generally perpendicular relative to one another. The flexible motor mount further includes a component mounting plate attached to the motor housing and an intermediate plate coupled to the component mounting plate by the first pair of spherical connection joints. The intermediate plate is also coupled to the boom by the second pair of spherical connection joints.
