  • Patent number: 5950994
    Abstract: A vibration isolating apparatus includes a first mounting member; a second mounting member having a through hole; an elastic body provided to be elastically deformable and mounted in such a manner as to be interposed between the first mounting member and the second mounting member; a liquid chamber of which at least a portion of a partition wall is formed of the elastic body and the second mounting member and which is filled with a liquid; and an elastic membrane provided to be elastically deformable and fixed to a portion of the second mounting member forming the partition wall of the liquid chamber so as to cover the through hole. Accordingly, even when vibration of a high frequency which cannot be damped by the elastic body and a liquid is transmitted from the side of a vibration-generating portion, the elastic membrane elastically deforms and the dynamic spring constant becomes low. As a result, vibration is not easily transmitted to the side of a vibration-receiving portion.
