  • Patent number: 8025273
    Abstract: In a liquid-filled anti-vibration mounting device suitable such as for an engine mount, an accommodation room containing a rubber movable plate is formed inside a partition member partitioning a liquid chamber into a pressure receiving chamber and a balancing chamber. The partition member includes a pair of division walls, one adjoining the pressure receiving chamber and the other adjoining the balancing chamber. Each division wall is formed with a plurality of communication holes. The communication holes are arranged to undulate at least a portion of the movable plate towards the peripheral edge thereof at specified circumferential intervals or greater by the action of the liquid pressure through the communication holes. The movable plate thus deformed, particularly its portion towards the peripheral edge, has a small area to come into contact with the division walls at a time, which effectively disperses and lessens a shock due to contact.

  • Patent number: 7296650
    Abstract: An oscillation limiting mechanism 4 is integrally provided to an engine mount 3 (a vibration proof mount device) of a power plant P mounted on an automobile in a traverse mount fashion. Not only is a stopper metal member 40 in the shape of an inverted U letter disposed so as to cross over a mount body portion 30, but a stopper rubber 42 is formed so that it protrudes from the rear end of a casing of the mount body portion 30 toward the rear side of the vehicle body. Not only is a hollow portion 43 formed in the interior of the stopper rubber 42, but a metal core body 44 is also embedded in the stopper rubber 42 so as to be revolvable around an axis in the vehicle body traverse direction as if it were a link.
