  • Antivibration mount and mechanical assembly comprising such mount
    Patent number: 6361030
    Abstract: An antivibration mount to damp vibration in a main vibration direction, comprises first and second rigid strength members interconnected by an elastomer body. The first strength member includes first and second fingers which are substantially perpendicular to the main vibration direction and which extend outwards in opposite directions. The second rigid strength member includes first and second folded tabs which are perpendicular to the fingers and pierced by windows, the two fingers of the first rigid strength member passing through the windows.
