  • Patent number: 7040446
    Abstract: A power train support apparatus supports a power train which is adapted to be dropped with a load greater than or equal to a given value thereof applied substantially in a fore-and-aft direction of a vehicular body. The power train support apparatus includes: a support bracket mounted to the power train. The support bracket includes an upper connection at least which is suspended with a support member of the vehicular body. The support bracket is formed with a breakable portion which is breakable with a load greater than or equal to a given value thereof applied substantially downward from the upper connection.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 6321890
    Abstract: In a vibration reducing system, an insulator is disposed between the engine and a vehicle body. A vibration damper such as a dynamic damper is secured to the insulator at a side which is distal from the power unit (viz., an engine and/or transmission/transaxle) and connected to an outboard end of a pin which extends away from the engine. The installation of the vibration damper minimizes the amount of space required and is effective to reduce the vibration and the noise even when the mass of the components is small since the device is disposed at a location where the amplitude of the vibration tends to maximize.
