Abstract (en)
A support bracket (10,50) is made of a cast material having an embedded reinforcing plate (36;62) with preformed holes (42,44,46;64) of a diameter greater than that of corresponding holes (22,24,26) drilled through the cast material. The cast material is preferably a relatively lighter and readily machinable material, such as aluminium, while the reinforcing plate is of a relatively stiffer and harder material, such as steel. The larger diameter of the reinforcing plate holes enables holes to be drilled through the support bracket without cutting into the hard material of the reinforcing plate. The reinforcing plate is advantageously configured to increase the natural frequency of vibration of the bracket. <IMAGE>
