BODY MOUNT WITH PLUG-IN DAMPING DEVICE FOR VEHICLES

摘要

A plug-in hydraulic body to frame mounting assembly (20) is mounted to a conventional elastomeric body mount device (21) to increase the control of vibration from the operation of the automotive frame to the automotive component supported thereon. The connecting member (32) of the hydraulic mounting assembly threads onto the end of the fastener (29) passing through the conventional elastomeric body mount device (22) and anchors the outer can (34) to a bridging can (16) connected to the underside of the frame offrigger bracket (15) to provide a true plug-n-go vibration control enhancement that can be added to any desired body mount location. The deflection of the fastener during operation of the elastomeric body mount device drives the operation of the hydraulic mounting assembly to dampen the deflection of the fastener in the elastomeric body mount corresponding to the transfer of operational loads between the body component and the offrigger bracket (15) to which the body component (19) is mounted.
