  • Publication number: 20030047661
    Abstract: Anti-vibration assembly comprising an engine and a beam and an anti-vibration support for connecting the engine and the beam, damping vibration between the engine and the beam and supporting the weight of the engine in the vertical direction. The anti-vibration support comprises an inner armature and an outer armature which are connected respectively to the engine and to the beam. An elastomer body provides the connection between the inner armature and the outer armature. The outer armature forms a casing in which the inner armature (5) is force-fitted.

  • Patent number: 6454236
    Abstract: This device comprises an elastic element designed to be stretched between two fixing members spaced apart from one another in a direction of vibration and which are linked to one another by two elastomer branches, these branches extending substantially in the vibration direction. A vibrating mass links said branches to one another. This vibrating mass is provided in the form of a ring enclosing the elastic element so as to form two stop zones located respectively in the vicinity of the two fixing members in order to limit displacements of the latter under traction.

  • Patent number: 6199841
    Abstract: An anti-vibration device for damping torque designed to couple an engine with a motor vehicle chassis with a view to limiting displacements of the engine, comprising a central reinforcement simply inserted in a nest-fit between elastomer lobes projecting in the main direction of displacement inside an annular reinforcement. The lobe which is compressed when the engine produces a driving force is thicker than the others and the first reinforcement is flat perpendicular to the main direction of displacement.
