More specifically, the peripheral side spacer 44 is provided between the embracing portion of the side wrapping 42 and a part of the outer side surface of the water pump 30.

The peripheral side spacer 44 is a flexible material, and the material hardness of the peripheral side spacer 44 is less than that of the pump body and the side wrap 42. It is worth mentioning that the peripheral side spacer 44 and the water pump 30 are both made of a metal material, i.e., are relatively hard, so that the two relatively hard materials are not in direct contact and the vibration is not directly transmitted through the flexible material. When the water pump 30 vibrates in operation, the damping action by the flexible peripheral side spacer 44 is applied to the side wrapping member 42. Preferably, the peripheral side spacers 44 are constructed of a foam material having good flexibility and good sound absorption through the pores of the material. It will be appreciated that the vibration of the water pump 30 is a source of noise, and the peripheral side spacer 44 is spaced directly between the water pump 30 and the side wrap 42, thereby reducing noise from the source of noise and providing better noise reduction. Preferably, the peripheral side spacer 44 is a silicone foam pad that reduces the interaction force while increasing the friction force and reducing the mutual movement between the water pump 30 and the fixed member.

In an embodiment of the present invention, the peripheral side spacer 44 is spaced between the surrounding portion 421 of the side wrapping member 42 and the outer side surface of the water pump 30.

The set of plate spacers 45 is a flexible material, and the material of the set of plate spacers 45 is less stiff than the set of upper retaining arms 412 and the side wraps 42. Preferably, the peripheral side spacers 44 are constructed of a foam material having good flexibility and good sound absorption through the pores of the material. Preferably, the set of plate spacers 45 are silicone foam pads that reduce the interaction forces while increasing friction and reducing the amount of movement between the set of upper retaining arms 412 and the set of retaining ears 422.

It is worth mentioning that the set of upper fixing arms 412 and the side wrapping member 42 are made of a metal material, i.e., a material having a relatively high hardness, so that the two materials having a relatively high hardness are not in direct contact with each other and the vibration is not directly transmitted through the flexible material. The set of upper fixing arms 412 and the set of fixing lugs 422 of the side pack 42 are fixed to each other, that is, the position where vibration or noise is directly transmitted, according to this embodiment of the present invention, the set of plate spacers 45 are provided between the set of upper fixing arms 412 and the set of fixing lugs 422 of the side pack 42, so that the interaction force between the set of upper fixing arms 412 and the set of fixing lugs 422 of the side pack 42 is buffered, and noise is reduced.
