An active anti-vibration device 10 includes a pair of elastic connecting parts 20 and 30, a rod body 40 that connects the pair of elastic connecting parts, an inertial mass 52 that is supported by the rod body, a drive part 58 that reciprocates the inertial mass in an axial direction of the rod body, and a controller 90 that is configured to be able to perform acceleration feedback control to control the drive part so that a first force proportional to an axial acceleration of the rod body is generated.

A mount bush includes a tube member, a shaft member disposed coaxially with an axis of the tube member and having a coil, a first liquid chamber disposed at an upper side in an internal space between the tube member and the shaft member, a second liquid chamber in communication with a lower side of the first liquid chamber and containing a magnetic viscoelastic fluid, and a third liquid chamber in communication with a lower side of the second liquid chamber and having a porous body, wherein the coil is disposed such that a magnetic path that passes through the second liquid chamber in an orientation along at least one of an axial direction and a radial direction is formed through electrical conduction.

Provided is a liquid-filled vibration isolator through which durability of an elastic movable body can be improved. In a case that a liquid pressure of liquid passing through a second orifice P2 is exerted to an outer circumference portion 12 of an elastic movable body 10, whole of the outer circumference portion 12 deforms so as to bend. Based on deformation of the outer circumference portion 12, a first valve portion 13 and facing surfaces 81c, 91c mutually contact or separate. Thereby, the communication state and the blocking state of the second orifice P2 are switched. Since it can be restrained that stress is concentrated in a part of the outer circumference portion 12 by wholly bending the outer circumference portion 12, cracks are less likely to occur in the outer circumference portion 12.

A powertrain component mount includes a housing, a main rubber element, a hydraulic body, a membrane and a valve. The main rubber element has an outer armature, an inner armature and an isolating element coupled to the armatures, the isolating element being formed of a material that is more flexible than the outer armature and the inner armature, wherein the main rubber element defines at least part of a fluid flow path. The hydraulic body supports the outer armature of the main rubber element, defines part of the fluid flow path, a fluid chamber, and part of a control chamber communicated with the fluid flow path. The hydraulic body has a port open to the control chamber. The membrane defines part of the control chamber and the valve has a valve head movable between a first position closing the port and a second position spaced from the port.

A system and method for calibrating and controlling an active dampening system for a chassis of a vehicle having an engine involve operating the engine in a cylinder deactivation mode and, during the cylinder deactivation mode, (i) receiving, from a set of sensors, measured vibrations on first and second frame rails of the chassis, (ii) generating control signals for a set of actuators based on the measured vibration of the first and second frame rails, each actuator being configured to generate a vibrational force in at least one direction, and (iii) outputting, to the set of actuators, the control signals, wherein receipt of the control signals cause the set of actuators to generate vibrational forces that dampen the vibration of the first and second frame rails, respectively, to decrease noise/vibration/harshness (NVH).

A hydromount that is suitable for mounting a motor vehicle engine at a vehicle body includes a supporting spring supporting a mount core and surrounding a working chamber, and a compensating chamber separated from the working chamber by a separating assembly and delimited by a compensating diaphragm. The separating assembly may have at least two nozzle systems which have one decoupling diaphragm each and in each of which one damping duct is disposed. The compensating chamber and the working chamber may be filled with a liquid and may be connected to each other in a liquid-conducting manner by damping ducts. The separating assembly may have an absorber duct connecting the working chamber with the compensating chamber. A switchable actuating member may be assigned to the absorber duct.
