A torque rod includes a rod body, a large round portion, and a small round portion. The large round portion is provided at one end of the rod body. The small round portion is provided at the other end of the rod body. The large round portion includes an outer portion, an inner portion, and a joint portion. The outer portion has a tubular shape. The inner portion is provided on an inner side of the outer portion and has an annular opening to which an attaching member is attached. The joint portion elastically joins the outer portion and the inner portion. The inner portion includes a base portion and an extending portion. The base portion has the opening formed therein. The extending portion extends from the base portion toward the small round portion. The joint portion is provided between the extending portion and the outer portion.

The present disclosure relates to flexible energy absorbing systems and body armor, helmets and protective garments incorporating flexible energy absorbing systems. A flexible energy absorbing system may comprise a first plurality of cells having a first re-entrant geometry and a second plurality of cells having a second, different geometry. The first plurality of cells and the second plurality of cells may comprise an elastomeric material.

A damper unit for use in a vibration-reducing assembly for a steering wheel is disclosed. An elastomeric damper element is molded on an inner sleeve and includes a plurality of elastomeric ribs forming a radially outer engagement surface, and a plurality of elastomeric support studs, which are mutually spaced in a circumferential direction are flexible in all directions transverse to said axis. Methods for making a damper unit and a damper assembly are also disclosed.

A device for securing and/or releasing injection moulds for plastics injection moulding includes a slide retainer that is located in a receiving mould region, can be pushed into predefined, complementary regions of a corresponding sliding mould region and comprises a roller which is rotatably mounted in a housing and over which the sliding mould region can roll. A spring-loaded pressure piece comprises the housing and a slide retainer spring that presses against the housing, for engaging in an opening in the sliding mould region. The housing has a pre-loading projection in a peripheral region for pre-loading by means of the slide retainer spring. One or more fixing screws run through the housing and is/are screwed into a complementary opening in the receiving mould region. A central lead-through means is provided and each of the one or more fixing screws runs through one through-opening of the lead-through means.

An apparatus for damping a first member relative to a second member. The apparatus includes a receiving member that includes a flange, an axial elastomeric member, and a radial elastomeric member. The axial elastomeric member is positionable between a surface of the first member and the flange of the receiving member, and the radial elastomeric member is positionable between the first member and the receiving member.

A clamp including: a holding portion configured to hold a wire harness; and a fixing portion that is provided in a portion of an outer circumferential surface of the holding portion and is to be fixed to a fixed portion; wherein the fixing portion includes: a base that includes a first surface that faces a holding portion side and a second surface located opposite to the first surface, a support shaft that extends from the second surface of the base in a direction away from the holding portion, a lock that is provided at a leading end of the support shaft and is formed to be able to be locked to the fixed portion, and a vibration suppressor that is made of a material whose elastic modulus is lower than that of the base and protrudes from the second surface of the base toward a lock side.

A vibration absorber bush for an inner tube absorber for absorbing torsional and flexural vibrations, for the coaxial assembly in a hollow shaft which is penetrated by a central longitudinal axis includes at least one largely cylindrical first elastic element and a largely cylindrical second elastic element which are in each case disposed to be coaxial with the longitudinal axis and to be mutually adjacent in the radial direction. In embodiments, a reinforcement element is disposed between the elastic elements.
