  • Three-dimensional isolation mount
    Patent number: 4214738
    Abstract: An isolation mount for damping radial vibration as well as axial vibrations without attendant shear forces to the elastomeric medium. A toroidal casing has a plate extending through its radially outer wall and terminating with flanges on its radially inner edge near a cylindrical core of the casing. Elastomeric O-rings are disposed on either side of the plate so as to be captured between the respective flange and oppositely disposed casing wall. Relative movement between the plate and the casing then results in compressive loads to certain portions of one or both of the O-rings, regardless of whether the relative motion is in the axial or radial direction.

  • Hanger for vehicle mud flaps
    Patent number: 4180230
    Abstract: An improved hanger for vehicular mud flaps is provided comprising a first and second elongated support member. One end of the first support member is secured to the vehicle while the second support member is telescopically mounted to the free end of the first support member. A spring resiliently urges the second support member axially outward from the first support member while permitting retraction of the second support member relative to the first support member when required to prevent a breakage or bending of the mud flap hanger. A coiled spring on the end of the hanger permits the end flap to be twisted without damaging the hanger.
