  • Patent number: 4721292
    Abstract: A fluid-filled elastic mounting structure includes an elastic member, hat-shaped outer and inner partition members superimposed on each other with their cup-shaped portions open on the same side and cooperating with the elastic member to define an operating chamber, and a flexible closure member cooperating with the outer and inner partition members to define an equilibrium chamber. The operating and equilibrium chambers are filled with a fluid and communicate with each other through an annular space which is defined by the cylindrical walls of the outer and inner partition members. The outer and inner partition members cooperate to define a flat space between their bottom walls.

  • Patent number: 4717111
    Abstract: A fluid-filled resilient engine mount including an inner and an outer sleeve which have axes parallel to each other, and a resilient member which is interposed between the inner and outer sleeves and which cooperate with the outer sleeve to define a plurality of fluid chambers which communicate with each other through at least one orifice. The engine mount further includes a stopper block of an elastic material positioned in a radially outer portion of each fluid chamber, and fixed relative to the outer sleeve and the resilient member. The stopper block has an abutting portion which protrudes in the corresponding fluid chamber toward the inner sleeve. The abutting portion is spaced from a bottom of the corresponding void, and is abuttable on the bottom, thereby preventing an excessive amount of elastic deformation of the resilient member.
