Abstract: Provided is a vibration isolating apparatus for isolating vibration from being transferred from a vehicle to a seat during idling and traveling. The vibration isolating apparatus provides an isolation structure applied between the upper and lower seat frames for a vehicle. A bearing unit having a low friction characteristic are applied so that horizontal vibration is effectively isolated without an up-and-down motion. A damping unit capable of attenuating the motion and frictional noise is applied.
