The invention provides a vibration isolation mount for a motorized garage
door opener system. The mount includes a substantially planar first
mounting plate with apertures configured for mounting to structure inside
a garage, and a substantially planar second mounting plate with threaded
bolt shafts or other mounting elements configured for mounting to motor
mounting structure mounted to a drive motor for use in the system. A
vibration isolation material, which may be a natural or synthetic rubber,
is disposed between the first and second mounting plates to isolate noise
and vibration produced by the motor from the structure mounting the
assembly to the interior of the garage.
