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.
Anti-vibration device
An anti-vibration device including an outer cylinder 10; a shaft member 20 that is provided in the outer cylinder 10; and an elastic member 40 that links the outer cylinder 10 and the shaft member 20, in which the shaft member 20 has an inner cylinder and four stopper portions 30a to 30d that protrudes from a circumferential surface of the inner cylinder toward the outer cylinder 10 and that are mutually provided at intervals in a circumferential direction, and in which the elastic member 40 links the outer cylinder 10 and the shaft member 20 at a position between stopper portions that are adjacent to each other in the circumferential direction.
Vehicular motor mount
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.
TUBULAR VIBRATION-DAMPING DEVICE
A tubular vibration-damping device including: an inner shaft member; an outer tube member; a main rubber elastic body elastically connecting the inner shaft member and the outer tube member, the main rubber elastic body being penetrated by a through hole in an axial direction; and a stopper rubber separated from the main rubber elastic body, the stopper rubber including an insert that is inserted in the through hole. A gap is provided in an axially middle portion of the insert, and the insert includes axially opposed faces that are opposed to each other in the axial direction with the gap in between.
Trunnion mount for mounting an engine
The present disclosure discloses a trunnion mount for mounting an engine, in particular a combustion engine, to a chassis, comprising a support element rigidly connected and/or connectable to the engine having a ring portion with an outer bearing surface, which may be arranged concentrically around the crankshaft; a female support having an inner bearing surface for surrounding the bearing surface of the support element, the female support forming the link between the chassis and the engine; and a rubber bearing arranged between the inner bearing surface of the female support and the outer bearing surface of the support element. In one or more examples, the trunnion mount includes a rubber bearing that is directly vulcanized on at least one of the bearing surfaces and/or wherein the ring portion is formed as a separate element from a mounting portion of the support element and connectable thereto via axial screws.
Bracket for anti-vibration device
A bracket (1) includes a bracket body (2) made of a synthetic resin and a reinforcement member (3) made of a fiber reinforced plastic. The bracket body (2) has a surrounding portion (20). The reinforcement member (3) extends in a surrounding direction. A reinforcement member arrangement portion (20a) of the surrounding portion (20) is formed of an outer circumference (211), an inner circumference (212), and a connecting portion (213). The reinforcement member arrangement portion (20a) is in the shape of a letter I in cross section in which the cross sectional width (W3) of the connecting portion (213) is narrower than the cross sectional width (W1) of the outer circumference (211) and the cross sectional width (W2) of the inner circumference (212). The reinforcement member (3) is arranged on the outer circumference (211).
Fluid mount having continuously variable characteristics for improving driving performance
A fluid mount is provided having continuously variable characteristics for improving driving performance in which an automatic fluid opening and closing unit is installed between upper and lower fluid chambers. The fluid mount includes a core having a central bolt, engaged with an engine, inserted into a central portion of the core, and a rubber member formed on an outer circumferential surface of the core. The core and the rubber member are disposed in a bracket housing. The upper and lower fluid chambers and the automatic fluid opening and closing unit are installed between the upper and lower fluid chambers to continuously open and close a flow path through current change.
DRIVING SOURCE SUPPORT STRUCTURE
A torque rod 16 which supports a driving source 11 on a vehicle body 15 includes: an annular first end part 17 which is connected to the driving source 11 while holding a first elastic bush 21 in an inner circumference thereof; an annular second end part 18 which is connected to the vehicle body 15 while holding a second elastic bush 23 in an inner circumference thereof; and a rod-shaped coupling part 19 which couples the first end part 17 and the second end part 18 to each other. An outer circumferential face of the first end part 17 includes a projection part 17a which projects radially outward so as to extend away from the second end part 18, and a mounting part 17b to mount a mass body 26 is formed in the projection part 17a.
Hydraulic engine-mount
A hydraulic engine mount, capable of preventing a rattle noise, improving Noise, Vibration, and Harshness (NVH) performance by lowering dynamic characteristics of the hydraulic engine mount in an idling state, and capable of generating a high damping value in a state having a relatively large amount of vibration displacement, includes a case having a hydraulic fluid sealed therein, a nozzle plate having a lower nozzle plate and an upper nozzle plate coupled to an upper portion of the lower nozzle plate, and dividing an inside of the case into an upper fluid chamber and a lower fluid chamber, a first membrane disposed on the upper portion of the lower nozzle plate such that a first edge portion of the first membrane is tightly coupled to the upper portion of the lower nozzle plate, and provided with at least one first communicating hole, a second membrane disposed on a lower portion of the upper nozzle plate such that a second edge portion of the second membrane is tightly coupled to the lower portion of the upper nozzle plate, and provided with at least one second communicating hole, and a separation plate allowing the first membrane and the second membrane to be apart from each other so as to provide a flow space between the first membrane and the second membrane.
Arrangement for a Drive Mounting
The invention relates to an arrangement for the drive mounting, in particular for a motor vehicle, preferentially a utility vehicle. The arrangement comprises a supporting structure, in particular a cross member structure. The arrangement comprises an, in particular electric, drive unit, which is attached to the supporting structure in a 3-point mounting on an underside and/or from below. Advantageously, the drive unit can thus be fed to the motor vehicle from the rear end. The drive unit can be practically lifted in order to be then attached to the supporting structure on an underside or from below. The 3-point mounting makes possible a quick assembly. In addition, a static redundancy of the mounting through too many bearing points (e.g. four or more) is prevented.
