Patent number: 7918438Abstract: A dynamic damper containing a mass and an elastic connector is connected to an inner tube to provide the dynamic damper integrally as a part of an apparatus. Since the dynamic damper is integrally provided as part of the apparatus (cab mount) by connecting the dynamic damper containing the mass and the elastic connector to the inner tube via a connecting member in the cab mount, it is possible to eliminate work for assembling the dynamic damper separately from the cab mount. Further, the dynamic damper may be constructed integrally as part of the cab mount.Type: GrantFiled: December 4, 2007Date of Patent: April 5, 2011Assignees: Bridgestone Corporation, Toyota Jidosha Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Shunji Sato, Katsumi Ishida
