Vibration-damping device

A vibration-damping device (10) of the present invention includes a first attachment member (11), a second attachment member (12), an elastic body (13), and a partition member (16). In the partition member, a restriction passage (24) through which the first liquid chamber (14) and the second liquid chamber (15) communicate with each other is formed. The restriction passage includes a first communicating portion (26) which opens to the first liquid chamber, a second communicating portion (27) which opens to the second liquid chamber, and a main body flow passage (25) through which the first communicating portion and the second communicating portion communicate with each other. At least one of the first communicating portion and the second communicating portion includes a plurality of fine holes (26a) which are disposed in a flow passage direction of the main body flow passage. In plurality of fine holes, a flow passage length of a fine hole located apart from the other of the first communicating portion and the second communicating portion in the flow passage direction becomes longer.

Subframe assembly for a vehicle utilizing straight extruded longitudinal siderail members
11603137 · 2023-03-14 · ·

A subframe assembly for a vehicle utilizing straight, parallel extruded longitudinal siderail members. This subframe assembly provides front-end (or rear-end) crash energy absorbance by plastically deforming, crumpling, and bending down to avoid the stackup and occupant cabin intrusion of components, such as the attached engine/motor, engine/motor mounts, steering components, and suspension components. The laterally disposed longitudinal siderail members each provide a straight, substantially uninterrupted lower load path to transfer crash energy from the lower load path crash management system beam and crashboxes or the like to a rear upper load path body in white bracket, and ultimately to the battery frame in the event of a crash, with the siderail members and crashboxes optionally being longitudinally coaxially aligned.

Engine mount for compact utility loader

Vehicular motor mount
11654765 · 2023-05-23 ·

A vehicular motor mount made of a motor mount assembly and a frame mount assembly made of four components: a base plate, a capture ring, a post and a bushing. The post mechanically connects directly to the engine mount bracket and the base plate directly connects to the subframe of the vehicle. The polymer bushing is bonded directly to the post. The concave capture ring is directly connected to the base plate forming a capture housing with a cavity wherein the post and bushing of the motor mount assembly are constrained but not directly connected to the base plate or capture ring of the frame mount assembly. With no direct connection between the two assemblies, the engine is not directly connected to the subframe. This improves vehicle's ride. The bushing and the capture ring are common to all vehicular motor mounts. The motor mount may be replaced in pieces rather than in its entirety.

Support bracket for mounting transmission and mounting assembly provided with the same

A support bracket for mounting a power train includes a bracket body including an engaging hole formed to insert an engaging bolt of a power train mount, an insert portion formed adjacent to the engaging hole, and a pocket formed adjacent to the insert portion, and an engaging nut inserted in the insert portion along the insert direction to engage the engaging bolt, and a stopper configured to prevent the engaging nut from separation.

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.

OFF-ROAD VEHICLE RADIATOR
20230136767 · 2023-05-04 ·

A recreational off-highway vehicle includes side-by-side passenger and driver seats held within a chassis. The seats sit low in the chassis and are covered by a roll cage. Grab handles are positioned on the sides of the passenger seat. Select large round tubing protects the vehicle, while rectangular tubing frames the portions of the vehicle beneath body panels. The vehicle is powered by an engine rearward of the seats that is connected to a transaxle. A radiator is positioned above the engine. The vehicle is suited for rough terrain travel.

VISCOUS ISOLATOR WITH AIR SPRING
