FLUID-SEALED ENGINE MOUNT
A fluid-sealed engine mount controls the movement of an engine mounted to a vehicle body and insulates from vibration. In particular, the fluid-sealed engine mount improves vibration damping performance and dynamic characteristics compared to a conventional engine mount, thereby enhancing noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) performance.
Liquid sealed damper for opening and closing member
A liquid sealed damper includes: an attachment portion attached to a peripheral portion of an opening of a vehicle or an opening and closing member for covering the opening; a contact portion to which an external force is input; an insulator configured to isolate vibration and connect the attachment portion and the contact portion; a main liquid chamber in which working liquid is sealed; an auxiliary liquid chamber having a wall portion formed of a diaphragm; and an orifice passage formed in the partition member and communicating with the main liquid chamber and the auxiliary liquid chamber. The partition member has a substantially circular surface forming a wall portion of the main liquid chamber. An opening portion at one end of the orifice passage is formed in the circular surface. The opening portion is formed to extend from an outer edge portion to a central portion of the circular surface.
HYDRAULIC POWERTRAIN COMPONENT MOUNT WITH VARIABLE STIFFNESS
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.
Vibration isolation device
A partition member (217) of the present invention includes a membrane (231) which forms a part of a partition wall of a main liquid chamber (215), and a first orifice passage (221) which communicates with the main liquid chamber (215) and opens toward a sub liquid chamber (216), and a flow resistance of a liquid in a portion positioned on the main liquid chamber (215) side and the flow resistance of a liquid in a portion (221a) positioned on the sub liquid chamber (216) side are different from each other in the first orifice passage (221).
Lead-lag damper
Technologies are generally described for lead-lag dampers. An example lead-lag may include a single- or two-stage floating annular ring, elastomer bearings, a tension stop, a compression stop, and a plunger/spring volume compensator. The floating annular ring(s) form orifice(s) in conjunction with the remaining damper components may provide stable performance by tracking with any center shaft misalignment during operation. The lead-lag damper may also include a secondary spring system allowing or disallowing fluid flow between chambers based on slow or sudden movement of the shaft.
Fluid-enclosed engine mount
A fluid-enclosed engine mount may include an insulator mounted between a core configured to be connected to an engine and an external pipe configured to be connected to a vehicle body, the insulator being provided with an internal space enclosing fluid; an orifice module disposed at the inside of a lower side portion of the insulator to divide the internal space into an upper chamber and a lower chamber, the orifice module being provided with a fluid passage for allowing fluid to fluidically-communicate between the upper chamber and the lower chamber; a support member disposed between an external surface of the orifice module and the lower side portion of the insulator to elastically support the orifice module to be vertically movable; and a pipe member disposed between the lower side portion of the insulator and the support member to support an external surface of the support member.
MR mount apparatus using a polymeric sheet decoupler
A hydraulic mount apparatus includes a housing having an upper portion and a lower portion disposed on a center axis and defining a housing chamber. A partition member is disposed in the housing chamber dividing the housing chamber into a pumping chamber and a receiving chamber. The pumping chamber extends between the upper portion and the partition member. The receiving chamber extends between the lower portion and the partition member. A decoupler is attached to the partition member separating the pumping chamber and the receiving chamber. A moving member is disposed in the pumping chamber and attached to the decoupler. The moving member is made from a non-elastomeric polymer sheet secured to the decoupler for providing the additional damping force.
Hydraulic mount
A hydraulic mount includes a core, a first elastomeric member, a second elastomeric member connected to the first elastomeric member, a third elastomeric member connected to the core, a housing including a first housing member connected to the first elastomeric member and a second housing member connected to the second elastomeric member, a first ring, and a second ring connecting the first ring with the third elastomeric member. The first elastomeric member, the second elastomeric member, the third elastomeric member, the first ring, and the second ring may cooperate to provide a first fluid chamber and a second fluid chamber, fluid path connects the first fluid chamber to the second fluid chamber.
Hydraulic mount for vehicles
A hydraulic mount for a vehicle having both forward-rearward damper and upward-downward damper includes: a main rubber configured to define a fluid chamber; an orifice assembly that divides the fluid chamber into an upper fluid chamber and a lower fluid chamber, defines the upper fluid chamber together with the main rubber, and has an orifice arranged between the upper fluid chamber and the lower fluid chamber; and a diaphragm configured to define the lower fluid chamber at the lower side of the orifice assembly. In particular, the main rubber has a partition wall extending downwards so as to partition the upper fluid chamber into a first upper fluid chamber and a second upper fluid chamber in the state in which the lower end of the partition wall is coupled to the orifice assembly.
Separation device for separating a working chamber and a compensation chamber of a hydraulically damping mount, and a hydraulically damping mount
A separation device for separating a working chamber and a compensation chamber of a hydraulically damping mount includes a first nozzle disc and a second nozzle disc made of a first material and forming a damping channel interconnecting the working chamber and the compensation chamber. The first nozzle disc may include a sealing member made of a second material and abut the second nozzle disc to seal the damping channel. A hydraulically damping mount for mounting a motor vehicle unit may having a separating device.
