ISOLATION MOUNT FOR SHOCK ATTENUATION
20170299012 · 2017-10-19 ·

An isolator mount system includes multiple isolator mounts that are used to isolate a piece of equipment from a structure. The isolation mounts each include an isolation pad between inner and outer mountings, to provide damping between relative motions of the inner mounting and the outer mounting. A central portion of the isolation pad is closer to a central axis of the isolation mount than are ends of the isolation pad that are on opposite sides of the central portion. This configuration provides two shear sections, to provide additional damping, an additional amount of shear in the isolator mounts. The shear sections may be configured to control location of the center of elasticity of the system, for example by locating the center of elasticity at the same location as the center of gravity of the system, thereby resulting in an isoelastic system.

Spring element, in particular jounce bumper, for a vehicle suspension

A spring element, in particular a jounce bumper, for a vehicle suspension contains a longitudinal axis, a base body extending along the longitudinal axis, and an end portion positioned on a base end of the base body. The base body is elastically deformable between an uncompressed basic state and a compressed state in which the base body is at least partially compressed in the direction of the longitudinal axis. The end portion is configured for mounting the base body in a mounting cap. It is suggested that the end portion contains a plurality of at least two radially extending retention elements that are spaced apart from one another in the direction of the longitudinal axis, and each of the retention elements are configured to engage a mating retention element provided on the mounting cap.

A placing table includes a measuring-unit that measures a vertical position of an orifice member placed on the placing table, a position-regulating-portion that engages with a part of the orifice member of a type corresponding to the table, and an orifice-member-determination-unit that determines a placed state and type of the orifice member based on a measurement result obtained by the measuring-unit. When the corresponding type of the orifice member is placed in a correct posture, the position-regulating-portion engages with the orifice member and seats the orifice member on the table over the entire circumference of the lower end portion thereof. When a different type of orifice member is placed or when the corresponding type of orifice member is placed in an incorrect posture, the position-regulating-portion does not engage with the orifice member and lifts at least a part of the orifice member from the table.
