  • Patent number: 10883561
    Abstract: The invention relates to a hydraulic mount, including a hydraulic mount for mounting a motor vehicle engine on a vehicle body. In embodiments, the hydraulic mount includes: a hydraulic module with a support spring that supports a mount core, surrounds a working chamber, and is supported on an outer ring on which a cover is fixed, a compensation chamber which is separated from the working chamber by an intermediate plate and is delimited by a compensation membrane, wherein the compensation chamber and the working chamber are filled with a damping liquid and are connected with each other in a liquid-conducting manner via a damping channel arranged in the intermediate plate; and a housing accommodating the hydraulic module. In embodiments, the outer ring includes a radial projection with a rubber-lined axial abutment surface and a non-rubber-lined radial outer surface.

  • Patent number: 10480606
    Abstract: A separating device for arrangement between a working chamber and a compensation chamber of a hydraulic mount includes a first nozzle plate and a second nozzle plate which is spaced apart from the first nozzle plate at a first distance. An elastic membrane is arranged between the first nozzle plate and the second nozzle plate. The membrane has at least one bump. The bump has a height with respect to the membrane and is designed in such a way that the bump lies against the first nozzle plate and/or the second nozzle plate in a punctiform manner. A thickness of the membrane and the height of the bump in the uninstalled state together are larger than the first distance, such that the membrane is clamped between the first nozzle plate and the second nozzle plate in a punctiform manner.
