,. 5 BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of The Invention The present invention relates to a mounting device which supports and secures an engine, a transmission, a suspension, or the like, to the body of a vehicle, at the same time damping out engine- or suspension-generated vibrations, as well as a process for the manufacture thereof.
2. Description of the Related Art Mounting devices which support and secure an engine, a is transmission, a suspension, or the like, to the body of a vehicle which have been long used previously have comprised rubber and like insulators held between a lame and small metal cylinder.
However, to reduce the weight of an automobile and also to reduce cost, the use of a resin has been attempted so as to replace the metal in the 20 outer cylinder with a resin.
Such a mounting device having an insulator placed between such a resin outer cylinder is manufactured by molding the insulator part from rubber and then injection molding a resin using the insulator part and the metal inner cylinder as the insert.
2s However, the conventional manufacturing process has faced problems in that injection molding using rubber which is a very elastic material, if earned out under high pressure, deformed the insulator part while molding even under a relatively low pressure not only providing molded articles with poor appearance, but also leading to a failure to obtain so the mechanical properties with a resin.
Molding a resin insert has also faced problems in that for manufacturing a metal cylinder as an outer cylinder, the insulator part is subjected to sufficient compression behavior to increase its strength by annularly tensioning drawing the metal. But molding an insert from a resin 3s requires providing the insulator part with compression behavior based only on the resin-characteristic shrinkage so that a molded article or an outer cylinder obtained by using a special insulator material had to become a very thick-walled molded article.
It is an object of this invention to provide a mounting device which is light weight, excellent in durability and good in appearance and a process for the manufacture thereof.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
A mounting device includes an outer cylinder, an inner cylinder, and an elastic insulator part positioned between said outer cylinder and inner .
cylinder to connect the outer cylinder and inner cylinder. The outer cylinder is made of a resin and includes a first outer cylinder molded into 1o an annular form having at least one opening therein, and a second outer cylinder molded on the outer circumference of the first outer cylinder and covering the opening in the first outer cylinder.

Molding a resin insert has also faced problems in that for manufacturing a metal cylinder as an outer cylinder, the insulator part is subjected to sufficient compression behavior to increase its strength by annularly tensioning drawing the metal. But molding an insert from a resin 3s requires providing the insulator part with compression behavior based only on the resin-characteristic shrinkage so that a molded article or an outer cylinder obtained by using a special insulator material had to become a very thick-walled molded article.
It is an object of this invention to provide a mounting device which is light weight, excellent in durability and good in appearance and a process for the manufacture thereof.

In the figures, 10 is an outer cylinder comprising a first outer cylinder 11 and a second outer cylinder 12 and is molded from a glass fiber reinforced thermoplastic resin. Preferred thermoplastic resins which meet the heat resistance and strength requirements are polyamides, polyesters, or 2s polyphthalamides, and the like.
20 is a metal inner cylinder which can be obtained by machining a steel pipe. The inner cylinder 20 may be an article molded from a resin, such as a polyamide, if excellent sliding properties and high strength are assured.
30 is an insulator part which is molded from a natural rubber, a synthetic rubber, or the like elastomer, preferably molded from a blended rubber based on natural rubber with a dime rubber, such as styrene butadiene rubber, butadiene rubber, and the like, because they are outstanding in vibration isolation, preferably one molded from an ss ethylene-propylene-dime terpolymer (EPDM rubber) owing to outstanding heat resistance, as well as one molded from a chloroprene rubber owing to its combination of excellent vibration isolation and heat resistance.
The insulator part 30 comprises an outer annular part 31 which is bound to the inner circumferential face of the first outer cylinder ll of outer cylinder 10, inner annular part 33 bound to the outer circumferential face of inner cylinder 20, link 32 which links the outer annular part 31 to the inner ' s annular part 33. There should be one or more links 32 and their shape, size, and position are arbitrary within the range of not causing any problems in ' strength as illustrated in Figure 1 or Figure 2 with no particular limitation.
Openings 34 and 14 are provided, respectively, on the outer annular part 31 and the first cylinder 11 without any restrictions as to the their numbers and i0 positions, which may be provided at syixlmetrical positions 180 degrees apart from each other as given in Figure 1 or may be at a single position as shown in Figure 2. Openings are preferably provided as given in Figure 1 or Figure 2 considering the ease of molding and assembling and the strength limitations.
1s In Example 1, for the process for manufacturing a mounting device of this invention, in Step 1, insulator part 30 is molded from a rubber blend of a natural h-ubber base with a styrene butadiene rubber using a metal inner cylinder 20 as an insert, into a configuration as shown in Figure 1 or Figure 2 so as to have an outer annular part 31 provided with an opening 34.
2o The molding is carried out by compression molding under conditions of a mold temperature of 145-165°C and 20-60 minutes.
Molding can also be carried out by injection molding under conditions of a flow temperature of 175-185°C for 60 seconds -15 minutes The molding conditions vary soxnewhat depending on parts, shapes, 25 gate positions, etc.
If a metal inner cylinder 20 is used, the surface of the inner cylinder 20, that face of the inner cylinder 20 coming in contact with the inner annular part: 33, is preferably pretreated with an adhesive, such as a phenolic adhesive or the like, so as to >Jncrease the adhesion of the cylinder 3o to the insulator part 30.
Next, in step 2, the insulator part 30 molded in step 1, along with the metal inner cylinder 20, are placed as an insert into a mold followed by injection molding an outer cylinder 11 having an opening 14 at a position corresponding to the opening 34 of the insulator part 30. Molding is ss carried out in this case so as to mold at the same time on the first outer cylinder 11 lugs 15 which project outward in the radial direction at both ends adjacent to openings) 14.
Injection molding is carried out under conditions of injection pressure of 400-450 kgf/cm2 and a mold temperature of 100-120°C. The first outer cylinder is 2-3 mm in wall thickness. In order to increase the adhesion of the insulator part 30 to the first outer cylinder ll, the face which s comes in contact with the outer annular part 31 of the first outer cylinder is preferably pretreated with an adhesive, such as a phenolic adhesive, or the like.

In step 3, a second outer o cylinder 12 is molded using the integrated first cylinder 11, insulator part 30, and inner cylinder 20 as an insert; the integrated first outer cylinder Il, insulator part 30, and inner cylinder 20 are placed, with the two lugs being gripped, into a mold for molding the second outer cylinder 12. This is slightly larger in size than the first outer cylinder 11 with its opening 14 is closed and the insulator part 30 with its opening 34 of the outer annular part 31 being closed, thereby injection molding the second outer cylinder 12 by applying compression to the insulator part with openings 14 and 34 being closed. The injection molding is carried out under conditions of an injection pressure of 800-1,000 kgf/cm2 and a mold temperature of 20 110-120°C. The first outer cylinder is 2-3 mm in wall thickness.
The resultant molded mounting device is illustrated by Figure 3.
In this example, the second outer cylinder 12 is molded not only to envelop the outer circumference of the first outer cylinder 11 including lugs I5, but also to extend around the side face of the first outer cylinder 1I. In 2s terms of the viewpoint of the strength alone, it should be sufficient if the second outer cylinder I2 is at least present on the outer circumference side of the first outer cylinder 11.
In another example, in the above first step, the first outer cylinder 11 is molded and then in the second step, insulator part 30 may be molded 3o with the first outer cylinder 11 which has been molded and with the metal inner cylinder 20 as the insert. Step 3 is the same as the above.
As described above, the present invention can provide a resin-rubber mounting device which is lighter in weight than the conventional resin-rubber mounting devices, is good in appearance, and is durable as a ss metal-rubber mounting device.

Injection molding is carried out under conditions of injection pressure of 400-450 kgf/cm2 and a mold temperature of 100-120°C. The first outer cylinder is 2-3 mm in wall thickness. In order to increase the adhesion of the insulator part 30 to the first outer cylinder ll, the face which s comes in contact with the outer annular part 31 of the first outer cylinder is preferably pretreated with an adhesive, such as a phenolic adhesive, or the like.
In steps l and 2, the first outer cylinder 11 and inner cylinder 20 are linked and integrated via insulator part 30. In step 3, a second outer o cylinder 12 is molded using the integrated first cylinder 11, insulator part 30, and inner cylinder 20 as an insert; the integrated first outer cylinder Il, insulator part 30, and inner cylinder 20 are placed, with the two lugs being gripped, into a mold for molding the second outer cylinder 12. This is slightly larger in size than the first outer cylinder 11 with its opening 14 is closed and the insulator part 30 with its opening 34 of the outer annular part 31 being closed, thereby injection molding the second outer cylinder 12 by applying compression to the insulator part with openings 14 and 34 being closed. The injection molding is carried out under conditions of an injection pressure of 800-1,000 kgf/cm2 and a mold temperature of 20 110-120°C. The first outer cylinder is 2-3 mm in wall thickness.
The resultant molded mounting device is illustrated by Figure 3.
In this example, the second outer cylinder 12 is molded not only to envelop the outer circumference of the first outer cylinder 11 including lugs I5, but also to extend around the side face of the first outer cylinder 1I. In 2s terms of the viewpoint of the strength alone, it should be sufficient if the second outer cylinder I2 is at least present on the outer circumference side of the first outer cylinder 11.
In another example, in the above first step, the first outer cylinder 11 is molded and then in the second step, insulator part 30 may be molded 3o with the first outer cylinder 11 which has been molded and with the metal inner cylinder 20 as the insert. Step 3 is the same as the above.
