A hydraulic damper assembly comprises a main tube defining a fluid chamber. An external tube extends about the main tube defining a compensation chamber between the main and external tubes. A main piston, located in the main tube, divides the fluid chamber into a compression chamber and a rebound chamber. A piston rod couples to the main piston. A base valve, located in the compression chamber, couples to the main tube. A hydraulic compression stop, located in the compression chamber, includes an additional piston, an insert, and a fixing member. The additional piston couples to the main piston. The insert, located in the compression chamber, couples to the base valve. The insert has a main section and a terminal section. The terminal section having an external diameter that is less than an external diameter of the main section.

A bush-type transmission mount, in which an orifice, operating as a fluid passage that connects a first fluid chamber and a second fluid chamber to each other, is directly formed to a desired length in a core that is coupled to a main rubber to improve vibration-damping characteristics. A membrane is fitted into an outlet portion of the orifice, which communicates with the first fluid chamber, in a sliding manner, thereby improving low-frequency idle vibration and high-frequency dynamic characteristics.

A flywheel arrangement for an engine of a vehicle, includes: a flywheel configured to be connected to a crankshaft of the engine for common rotation around a center axis, a pendulum weight arranged between the center axis and a radially peripheral surface of the flywheel, the pendulum weight being movable with respect to the flywheel along a predetermined pendulum path, a ring member positioned radially outside of the pendulum weight, the ring member being connected for common rotation with the flywheel around the center axis, and at least one pair of cooperating bearing surfaces, each pair of cooperating bearing surfaces including an outer bearing surface provided on the ring member and an inner bearing surface provided on the pendulum weight, the at least one pair of cooperating bearing surfaces together defining the predetermined pendulum path.

A stop assembly for damper masses of a damper system has a stop device and a stop device carrier which holds the stop device. The stop device has at least one shoulder, which is intended to engage in at least one associated receiving portion of the stop device carrier. In at least one support region, the shoulder is oversized relative to the associated receiving portion to facilitate captive engagement in the receiving portion, and, at a distance from the at least one support region, the shoulder is undersized relative to the associated receiving portion to facilitate assembly-simplifying engagement in the receiving portion.

The active damper upper mount includes an inner member (11, 111) to which an upper end portion of a rod (22, 122) of an active damper (21, 121) is fixed, an intermediate member (12, 112) that surrounds the inner member in a circumferential direction around a rod axis (O1, O2), an outer member (13, 113) that surrounds the intermediate member in the circumferential direction and is attached to a vehicle body side, a first elastic body (14, 114) that is disposed between the inner member and the intermediate member and supports the inner member and the intermediate member so as to be elastically displaceable relative to each other, and a second elastic body (15, 115) that is disposed between the intermediate member and the outer member and supports the intermediate member and the outer member so as to be elastically displaceable relative to each other.

A seat member has a seat portion, a receiving surface of which comes into contact with a bearing surface of an end turn portion, a mounting shaft portion protruded from the receiving surface of the seat portion, and an enlarged diameter portion formed at the front end of the mounting shaft portion for guiding press-fitting, in a cross section along an axial direction of a coil spring, an outer diameter of the enlarged diameter portion is set larger than an inner diameter of the end turn portion and an axial length of the enlarged diameter portion is set so that at least a maximum diagonal length of the seat member is larger than an inter-element wire distance.

A valve for an air spring includes a housing member having a center axis and a channel. The housing member includes first and second elements connected by a materially engaging connection in a first region and in abutment with each other in a second region or which are provided directly beside each other. A sealing member may be disposed in the channel and can close the channel or reduce an effective opening cross section. The valve may comprise a channel element that at least partially guides or forms the channel. The channel element may be fixed in the housing member in a form-fit and/or force-fit manner, and the channel element may retain the sealing member in a third region or the channel element may be fixed in/on the first element in a form-fit and/or force-fit manner, and the channel element may retain the sealing member in a third region.

A vehicle seat assembly includes a seat frame, a seat pan, and a plurality of vibration isolators interposed between the seat frame and the seat pan for limiting transmission of vibrations from the seat frame to the seat pan.

An isolation coupler for coupling a functional element to a support structure includes a first bracket. The first bracket includes a number of first-bracket sides. The number of first-bracket sides forms a closed polygonal shape, in plan view. The isolation coupler further includes a number of isolators coupled to each one of the first-bracket sides. The isolation coupler also includes a second bracket. The second bracket includes a number of second-bracket sides. The second bracket sides are coupled to the isolators. The number of second-bracket sides is equal to the number of first-bracket sides and forms the closed polygonal shape, in plan view. The isolators separate each one of the first-bracket sides from a corresponding one of the second-bracket sides to attenuate a load transferred from the first bracket to the second bracket.

A bumper cap for a damper, the damper including an outer tube with a tube end. A rod extending through the tube end. The damper including a damping fluid, such as a hydraulic oil, that is movable within the damper in response to movement of the rod to provide a damping effect. The bumper cap has a cup shaped body having a side wall and a base, the side wall having an inner surface and an outer surface, the inner surface having a dimension that is sized to be press fit over the outer tube. The base of the bumper cap has a through hole in the base, the through hole configured to have the rod pass therethrough. The base has at least one fluid passage extending away from the through hole that is in fluid communication with a fluid reservoir in the side wall.
