Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a bushing assembly having a tubular inner metal, a tubular outer metal, a tubular rigid cup disposed over an outer portion of the tubular inner metal, and a tubular pad disposed between the tubular rigid cup and the tubular outer metal. The tubular pad may have a first wall section and a second wall section at least partially circumscribing the first wall section. The first wall section may be configured to be compressed and to expand along an axis parallel to an axial center of the tubular pad, to thus fill the tubular rigid cup and enhance a stiffness of the bushing assembly when the tubular outer metal of the bushing assembly is moved towards a limit of a range of radial travel.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an hydraulic mount for coupling first second components in a vehicle. The mount has a first elastomeric member defining a first portion of a first chamber, and a second elastomeric member defining a second portion of the first chamber and a second chamber. The chambers are each able to retain fluid in a liquid seal manner. An inner tube assembly defines an opening for receiving a bolt. The elastomeric members may be fixedly secured to an outer surface of the inner tube assembly. An inner ring is fixedly coupled to the inner tube assembly at a position between the two chambers. The second elastomeric member is fixedly secured to an outer surface of the inner ring. A decoupler is fixedly disposed within the inner ring and adapted to move between rigid surfaces adjacent the first and second chambers.

Abstract: A mount having a bolt through configuration couples two components of a vehicle. The mount includes a first elastomeric member that defines a first portion of a first chamber and a second elastomeric member that defines a second portion of the first chamber and defines a second chamber. An inner tube assembly defines an opening for receiving the bolt. The first and the second elastomeric members are bonded to the inner tube assembly. An annular member is disposed between the first and the second chambers. The annular member defines a fluid-track which fluidly couples the first and the second chambers. The mount dampens vibrations at varying amplitudes by pushing fluid between the first and the second chambers via the fluid-track. The mount may also include a decoupler by way of a decoupler ring and decoupler cap to isolate the mount at a predetermined amplitude at varying frequencies.

Abstract: A bar pin for an elastomeric bushing assembly couples components of a vehicle. The bar pin may include a body member and a beam member. The body member defines a hollow center. The beam member includes a plurality of plates arranged in a stacked configuration. The plurality of plates forms a tab portion and a body portion of the beam member. The body portion is housed in the hollow center of the body member and the tab portion extends outward beyond the body member.

Abstract: A vibration damping device has a first support member and a second support member. A first component and a second component are disposed between the first support member and the second support member to define a first fluid chamber and a second fluid chamber. A channel extends between the first and second chambers. During compression and extension of the vibration damping device, fluid transfers between the first and second chamber to provide a damping force for the vibration damping device. The fluid within the chambers of the vibration damping device has a fluid density in the range of 1.25 g/cm3 to 2.2 g/cm3, a fluid viscosity below 10 cSt @ 20° C. and a fluid surface tension below 40 dynes @ 20° C.

Abstract: A hydraulic mount has an upper support member and a lower support member. An upper elastomeric spring and a lower elastomeric spring are disposed between the upper support member and the lower support member to define an upper fluid chamber and a lower fluid chamber. A channel extends between the upper and lower chambers. During compression and extension of the hydraulic mount, fluid transfers between the upper and lower chamber to provide a damping force for the hydraulic mount.
