Abstract: The antivibration rubber composition of the present invention contains a styrene-butadiene rubber (A) having a polystyrene-equivalent weight-average molecular weight of 700,000 or more, and a liquid styrene-butadiene rubber (B) having a polystyrene-equivalent weight-average molecular weight of 12,000 or less, wherein the total amount of the vinyl bond content in the rubber (A) and the vinyl bond content in the liquid rubber (B) relative to the total amount of the rubber (A) and the liquid rubber (B) is 25% by mass or more. The antivibration rubber using the composition exhibits ultra-low spring property and high durability.

Abstract: A suspension damper including an actuator and a static fluid damper is provided. The actuator includes a first housing and a second housing positioned within the first housing and coaxially aligned with the first housing along an axis of the actuator. The second housing defines a passage. A piston is slidably positioned within the passage of the second housing to define a first chamber and a second chamber. A divider is positioned between an inner surface of the first housing and an outer surface of the second housing to define a third chamber and a fourth chamber. The static fluid damper includes a first damping chamber, a second damping chamber, and a third damping chamber. A separating member is positioned within the third damping chamber to define a gas chamber. First and second flow passages provide fluid communication between the actuator and the static fluid damper.

Abstract: A compliance bush for a rear suspension of a vehicle includes an outer tube, an inner shaft, a first elastic member, and a second elastic member. The outer tube defines a central axis. A horizontal axis and a vertical axis each intersects the central axis to divide the bush into quadrants. The inner shaft is received in the outer tube and is configured to rotate in a first rotational direction during a braking event. The inner shaft is elongated in a horizontal direction. The first elastic member connects the inner shaft to the outer tube and is substantially disposed within a first lower quadrant. The second elastic member also connects the inner shaft to the outer tube. The second elastic member is disposed on an opposite side of the vertical axis as the first elastic member and is substantially disposed within a second lower quadrant.

Abstract: A rear body structure for a vehicle includes a gusset for reinforcing a body floor, each rear wheel house, and a damper support member disposed on the body floor adjacent to the wheel house. The gusset has a first portion connected to the wheel house, a second portion connected to the body floor, and a third portion connected to the damper support member and an upper end portion of a damper with the damper support member disposed between the third portion and the upper end portion of the damper. With this arrangement, a force applied from the damper to the damper support portion can be efficiently distributed through the gusset to the wheel house and the body floor.
