A vibration damping mount is disclosed that is designed to be mounted to a vehicle such as a car, truck, ATV or boat and accommodate an electronic device with a screen. The vibration damping mount may be mounted by a bracket, bolts, a clamp, or other coupling means. The vehicle-mounted portion and device-mounting portion of the vibration damping mount may generally be connected by a piston having springs on either side to absorb vibrational energy from the motion of the vehicle the system is mounted to, thereby reducing vibration of the screen of any electronic device mounted to the system. The springs may be further tuned by tightening or loosening tuning screws in contact with the springs, thereby increasing or decreasing the force of the springs on the piston. This allows the vibration damping mount to be adapted to a variety of vehicles and circumstances.

A method for controlling an elastic mount configured to support a propulsion device with respect to a marine vessel, wherein the elastic mount contains an electromagnetic fluid and an electromagnet and is configured such that adjusting an amount of electricity applied to the electromagnet changes a shear strength of the electromagnetic fluid in the elastic mount and thereby controls an elasticity of the elastic mount. The method includes applying a first amount of electricity to the electromagnet to produce an initial elasticity of the elastic mount measuring an oscillation of the propulsion device with a motion sensor, determining that the oscillation of the propulsion device exceeds a threshold oscillation, and adjusting the amount of electricity applied to the electromagnet to change the elasticity of the elastic mount to reduce the oscillation.

A suspension characteristic is changed depending on a travel state by a simple structure. An ECU uses a vehicle speed-spring constant setting part to calculate a target spring constant depending on a vehicle speed, and uses a spring constant-frequency setting part to calculate a set frequency corresponding to the target spring constant. An oscillation input calculation part generates a signal representing an oscillation input oscillating at the set frequency. A superimposition part sets a value acquired by superimposing the oscillation input on a target driving force to a new target driving force. As a result, the wheel exhibits a minute oscillation in a longitudinal direction, resulting in an input of the minute oscillation to a suspension bush. The suspension bush changes in a spring constant and a damping coefficient depending on the frequency of the input minute oscillation. As a result, the suspension characteristic can be changed.
