The upper support mechanism 1 is attached to a top wall portion 21 of the suspension tower 2. An opening 21a is formed in the top wall portion 21, and the opening 21a is configured to be circular in plan view.
The upper support mechanism 1 includes a bush 11, a bush housing portion 12, and a mounting plate portion 13. The bush housing portion 12 and the mounting plate portion 13 are constituted by an upper plate 14 and a lower plate 15.
The bush 11 is received in the bush receiving portion 12. The bushing housing 12 is formed in a hollow cylindrical shape and has an internal space S. That is, the liner 11 is housed in the internal space S. Through holes 12a are formed in the center portions of the upper plate 14 and the lower plate 15 of the bush housing portion 12, respectively. A holding portion 16 for holding a Bound stopper (Bound stopper) is provided below the bush housing portion 12.
The bush 11 serves to hold the upper end of the piston rod of the shock absorber. The bush 11 has a cylindrical portion 111, a bush main body 112, and a push rod attachment portion 113. The cylindrical portion 111 is formed in a cylindrical shape, and a bushing main body 112 is disposed inside the cylindrical portion. The lower end side of the cylindrical portion 111 is joined to the inner surface of the lower plate 15 of the bush housing portion 12. The bushing main body 112 is a rubber member and is provided between the cylindrical portion 111 and the push rod mounting portion 113. An upper end portion of a piston rod (not shown) extending downward from the internal space S through the lower through hole 12a is attached to the plunger attachment portion 113. That is, in the bush 11, the piston rod is supported by a bush main body 112 made of rubber.
The mounting plate portion 13 is configured to protrude outward from the bush housing portion 12 and surround the bush housing portion 12. The mounting plate portion 13 is mounted on the top wall portion 21 of the suspension tower 2, and the upper plate 14 of the bush housing portion 12 is disposed at the opening 21 a. Specifically, a plurality of (for example, three) bolt fastening portions 13a are provided in the mounting plate portion 13, and each bolt fastening portion 13a is fixed to the top wall portion 21 by the bolt 3. The plurality of bolt fastening portions 13a are disposed at predetermined intervals around the bush housing portion 12.
In the present embodiment, the upper support mechanism 1 further includes a seal 17 that seals the inside of the bushing housing portion 12 and seals a gap between the top wall portion 21 of the suspension tower 2 and the mounting plate portion 13. The seal 17 includes a first seal portion 17a and a second seal portion 17b, and a coupling portion 17c that couples the first seal portion 17a and the second seal portion 17 b. The seal 17 is constituted by a single member having elasticity.
The first seal portion 17a is disposed between the upper plate 14 of the hub accommodating portion 12 and the hub 11. The first seal portion 17a is formed in an annular shape and fitted to the upper end portion of the cylindrical portion 111. The first seal 17a is provided to prevent water and the like from entering the space Sa. The space Sa is surrounded by the upper plate 14, the lower plate 15, and the cylindrical portion 111, and is located outside the liner 11 in the internal space S.
The second seal portion 17b is disposed between the upper plate 14 and the ceiling wall portion 21 on the mounting plate portion 13. The second seal portion 17b is disposed between the plurality of bolt fastening portions 13 a. That is, a plurality of second seal portions 17b (for example, three) are provided, and each of the second seal portions 17b is disposed between the bolt fastening portions 13a adjacent to each other around the bush housing portion 12. For example, each of the second seal portions 17b is configured to extend in the circumferential direction of the hub accommodating portion 12. The second seal portion 17b is provided to prevent water and the like from entering the engine compartment. That is, the second seal portion 17b is provided to block water or the like flowing upward from the inside of the suspension tower 2 through the opening 21a of the top wall portion 21.
A plurality of (e.g., three) coupling portions 17c are provided, and each coupling portion 17c couples the corresponding second seal portion 17b and the first seal portion 17 a. The plurality of coupling portions 17c are arranged at predetermined intervals in the circumferential direction of the first seal portion 17 a. Each coupling portion 17c is configured to extend along the upper plate 14. A plurality of (e.g., three) through holes 14a are formed in the upper plate 14, and the coupling portions 17c are inserted into the corresponding through holes 14 a.
< Effect >
