The mass 5 is adjustably slidable along a bar 4 which is connected by way of spring elements 6, 7 to the vibrating structure, i.e. the engine 1, and to its support, e.g. the vehicle chassis 3. The spring elements have anisotropic elastic properties such that each possesses different stiffnesses in the two directions A and B. As shown, these springs are elastomeric sleeves rendered anisotropic by cut-outs 8: leaf springs could however be employed. In either case, the springs could be made self-damping either by the incorporation of a suitable filling in the elastomeric sleeves or by resin-coating the leaf springs. The weight 5 may also be made self-damping by employing a composite weight (Figs. 2 and 3, not shown) consisting of a core surrounded by an elastic sleeve (9) in turn surrounded by a rim (10). This would damp out high harmonic vibrations outside the range of effectiveness of the mass-spring system 5-6-7.</p> |
