Abstract: As rotational mechanical devices accelerate or decelerate, they generate torque against their housing and/or their surroundings. This torque represents wasted energy that is lost to the system. The invention comprises the use of equal and opposite force from an energy source such as a spring or counterweight to counteract to the torque generating forces in the mechanical device.

Abstract: These apparatuses consist of devices and systems to conserve energy in action/reaction processes. Instead the excess current drawn when accelerating motors to move the earth will be omitted as a result of the starting operation. Generators, machinery, and vehicles will be more efficient and less polluting. This is done by means of a counter weight, spring means, or a brace and for stationary and moving systems. For cars, trains and other vehicles, a strong static spring further extended by a counter weight/gravity or external cable opposing the backward travel of the travel media will be effective. Braking may be complemented by deflecting a strong spring which allowed to expand to resume travel.

Abstract: A mount capable of being pressed into an installed position in a hole in a plate. The mount has inner and outer concentric annular elements connected together by an intermediate flexible thermoplastic elastomeric web. The outer annular element has a peripheral groove which receives the plate and a deflectable wall with a chamfered outer surface and a series of slots. The flexible web permits the inner element to vibrate with respect to the plate and thereby isolate an item from the plate.

Abstract: A vibration-damped suspension of a drive aggregate in the body structure includes a forward and rear bearing installation; the forward bearing installation supports the transmission by way of two bearing supports whereas the rear bearing installation includes a cross-bearer supported on the side of the body by way of lateral outwardly arranged bearing supports. The cross-bearer is connected with a bracket receiving the engine by interposition of a decoupling device, whereby the bracket is decoupled from torsional stresses of the body so that the drive aggregate stands completely quiet notwithstanding twisting of the body.

Abstract: A buffer rod is interconnected between an engine and a chassis of a vehicle in addition to the main engine mounts. The rod has a resonance frequency slightly lower than the engine vibration frequency at which resonance in the vehicle cabin is apt to occur. Upon reaching the resonance frequency of the rod, the phase of vibration passing through the rod changes so that instead of increasing the spring modulus of the combination of engine mounts and buffer rod to damp vibrations which would otherwise shake the vehicle, the spring modulus thereof is reduced to a very low value due to the interference between the vibration passing through the mounts and the buffer rod. This sudden softening of the engine suspension as a whole, damps the engine vibrations which would otherwise induce resonance in the vehicle cabin.
