Flexible bearing with high damping characteristic and end play limited by incorporated stops and its applications.

摘要

Resilient joint with high smoothing characteristic and clearance checked by incorporated stops comprising a resilient ring (1) between coaxial rigid elements (2) and (3), characterised in that a layer of considerable thickness (7) covers each axial-effect shoulder (4) of the internal reinforcing bush (2) in order axially to abut against the narrowed edge (8) of the external interlock ring (3), in that the stop function, in each axial direction, gives a smoothing rigidity two to five times lower than the radial rigidity, and in that, beyond the smoothing zone, the axial rigidity becomes progressively greater than the value of the said radial rigidity. …Applications to vehicle suspension arms and to the antivibrational insulation of onboard or fixed equipment. ……
