  • Patent number: 10309480
    Abstract: A hydraulic damper for a mount assembly includes a housing and a subassembly. The housing defines a cavity and is integrally formed to include a plurality of retention features. The subassembly is at least partially disposed in the cavity and is secured relative to the housing by the plurality of retention features. At least one of the plurality of retention features and the subassembly is elastically deformable in a radial direction from an initial diameter to an elastically deformed diameter such that the subassembly is sized to axially pass by the plurality of retention features in the initial diameter for insertion of the subassembly into the housing and the plurality of retention members radially extend over the subassembly in the elastically deformed diameter to secure the subassembly relative to the housing.

  • Publication number: 20050168058
    Abstract: A module includes a reservoir having at least three chambers for storing compressed air for a vehicle air supply system, and a mounting assembly for supporting the reservoir on the vehicle. The chambers are separate from each other internally. The reservoir includes external connections, such as air lines or piping, for interconnecting the three chambers. The mounting assembly includes a bracket having a support surface. A bracket liner is received on the bracket between the support surface and the outer side surface of the reservoir. The reservoir may also include a purge chamber and an air dryer, as one unit, supported on the vehicle by the mounting assembly.
