  • Publication number: 20230106690
    Abstract: A fluid-filled vibration damping device includes a switching valve arranged inside the fluid passage passing through a partition member to communicate with a main fluid chamber and a sub fluid chamber and protruding from one wall surface toward the other wall surface of the fluid passage that face each other. A gap is provided between the switching valve and the other wall surface. A tip end part of the switching valve abuts against the other wall surface through a tilt displacement in a swing manner of the switching valve in the passage length direction of the fluid passage to thereby form a switching mechanism for closing the gap. An elastically deformable fin-shaped protrusion protruding from the tip end part of the switching valve toward the other wall surface is provided. A leak passage is formed between a protruding tip end of the fin-shaped protrusion and the other wall surface.

  • Patent number: 8651467
    Abstract: A fluid-filled type vibration damping device including a partition member having a moveable film and a short passage interconnecting a pressure receiving chamber and an equilibrium chamber. A valve member that switches between a communicating state and a shut off state of the short passage projects from the moveable film. The valve member has a thick walled part and a thin walled part, the thin walled part being pressed on an inner wall surface of the short passage. A pressure of the pressure receiving chamber is applied through the short passage to a pressure receiving chamber side surface of the thick walled part, while an equilibrium chamber side surface thereof is supported by the partition member. The pressure of the pressure receiving chamber is applied to one side of the thin walled part and a pressure of the equilibrium chamber is applied to another side thereof through the short passage.

  • Publication number: 20130001844
    Abstract: An anti-vibration rubber device is capable of advantageously preventing cracks from occurring in a constricted portion because of a long time use in a high-temperature environment. A rubber ring having higher resistance to gas permeability than a main rubber portion is externally inserted in a tension-deformed state to a stress concentration portion of a constricted portion in the main rubber portion that connects a first attachment member and a second attachment member. Due to a restoring force from the tension-deformed state, the rubber ring is tightly attached without being bonded to an outer peripheral surface of the stress concentration portion.
