Description

本発明は、内部の流体室に封入された非圧縮性流体の流動作用に基づき防振効果を得るようにした流体封入式防振装置に係り、特に、流体室の圧力変動を吸収する液圧吸収機構を備えた流体封入式防振装置に関するものである。   The present invention relates to a fluid-filled vibration isolator that obtains a vibration isolation effect based on the flow action of an incompressible fluid enclosed in an internal fluid chamber, and in particular, a hydraulic pressure that absorbs pressure fluctuations in the fluid chamber. The present invention relates to a fluid-filled vibration isolator having an absorption mechanism.

従来から、振動伝達系を構成する部材間に介装される防振連結体や防振支持体等の防振装置の一種として、非圧縮性流体の流動作用に基づいて防振効果を得るようにした流体封入式防振装置が知られている。この流体封入式防振装置は、第一の取付部材と第二の取付部材を本体ゴム弾性体で連結して、壁部の一部が本体ゴム弾性体で構成されて非圧縮性流体が封入された受圧室と、壁部の一部が変形容易な可撓性膜で構成されて非圧縮性流体が封入された平衡室を形成すると共に、両室をオリフィス通路を通じて相互に連通せしめた構造とされている。このような構造によれば、振動入力に伴い受圧室と平衡室の間に相対的な圧力変動が生じて、オリフィス通路を通じて流動せしめられる流体の共振作用等の流動作用に基づき防振効果が得られる。かくの如き流体封入式防振装置は、例えば、自動車用のエンジンマウントやボデーマウント、デフマウントの他サスペンションメンバマウント等への適用が検討されている。   Conventionally, as a type of vibration isolator such as an anti-vibration coupling body and an anti-vibration support body interposed between members constituting a vibration transmission system, an anti-vibration effect is obtained based on the flow action of an incompressible fluid. There has been known a fluid-filled vibration isolator. In this fluid-filled vibration isolator, the first mounting member and the second mounting member are connected by the main rubber elastic body, and a part of the wall portion is configured by the main rubber elastic body to enclose the incompressible fluid. The pressure receiving chamber is formed with an equilibrium chamber in which a part of the wall portion is made of a flexible membrane that is easily deformed and in which an incompressible fluid is sealed, and the two chambers communicate with each other through an orifice passage. It is said that. According to such a structure, a relative pressure fluctuation occurs between the pressure receiving chamber and the equilibrium chamber due to vibration input, and a vibration isolation effect is obtained based on a fluid action such as a resonance action of the fluid that flows through the orifice passage. It is done. Such a fluid-filled vibration isolator has been studied for application to, for example, an automobile engine mount, body mount, and differential mount as well as a suspension member mount.

しかしながら、オリフィス通路による防振効果が有効に発揮されるのは、当該オリフィス通路が予めチューニングされた比較的に狭い周波数域に限られる。そのため、オリフィス通路の共振周波数よりも高周波数域の振動が入力された場合には、オリフィス通路を通じての流体流動作用が有効に発揮され難くなることに起因して、十分な防振効果が得られ難い問題があった。   However, the vibration-proof effect by the orifice passage is effectively exhibited only in a relatively narrow frequency range in which the orifice passage is tuned in advance. Therefore, when vibration in a frequency range higher than the resonance frequency of the orifice passage is input, a sufficient vibration isolation effect can be obtained due to the difficulty of effectively exerting the fluid flow action through the orifice passage. There was a difficult problem.

そこで、近年では、液圧吸収機構を備えた流体封入式防振装置が開発され検討されている。この液圧吸収機構は、一般に、ゴム弾性材からなる可動ゴム膜の外周縁部に厚肉の環状支持部を形成し、環状支持部を第二の取付部材に固定された支持部材等で挟圧支持することによって、受圧室と平衡室の間に可動ゴム膜を配設して、可動ゴム膜の一方の面に受圧室の圧力を及ぼし且つ他方の面に平衡室の圧力を及ぼすようになっており、受圧室と平衡室の間の相対的な圧力差による可動ゴム膜の変形によって、受圧室の圧力変動を吸収する構造とされている。それによって、オリフィス通路のチューニング周波数よりも高周波数域で問題となる振動が入力された場合に、受圧室の圧力変動が可動ゴム膜の弾性変形により吸収されて、高動ばね化が回避されることから、防振効果の安定化が図られる。   Therefore, in recent years, a fluid-filled vibration isolator having a hydraulic pressure absorbing mechanism has been developed and studied. This hydraulic pressure absorbing mechanism generally has a thick annular support portion formed on the outer peripheral edge of a movable rubber film made of a rubber elastic material, and the annular support portion is sandwiched between a support member fixed to a second mounting member. By supporting the pressure, a movable rubber film is disposed between the pressure receiving chamber and the equilibrium chamber so that the pressure of the pressure receiving chamber is exerted on one surface of the movable rubber film and the pressure of the equilibrium chamber is exerted on the other surface. Thus, the movable rubber film is deformed by the relative pressure difference between the pressure receiving chamber and the equilibrium chamber to absorb pressure fluctuations in the pressure receiving chamber. As a result, when a problem vibration is input in a frequency range higher than the tuning frequency of the orifice passage, the pressure fluctuation in the pressure receiving chamber is absorbed by the elastic deformation of the movable rubber film, and the high dynamic spring is avoided. Therefore, stabilization of the vibration proofing effect is achieved.

ところが、このような可動ゴム膜による液圧吸収機構について本発明者が検討したところ、新たな問題のあることが明らかとなった。即ち、かかる液圧吸収機構を備えた流体封入式防振装置に対して衝撃的な大振動荷重が入力された場合に、異音が発生することが認められたのである。   However, when the present inventors examined such a hydraulic pressure absorption mechanism using a movable rubber film, it became clear that there was a new problem. That is, it was recognized that abnormal noise was generated when a shocking large vibration load was input to the fluid-filled vibration isolator having such a hydraulic pressure absorbing mechanism.

この異音の原因が何に依るものなのか簡単に判るものではなかったが、本発明者が異音発生した防振装置を切断分解して詳細に検討した結果、可動ゴム膜の環状支持部が支持部材に対して傾動等して擦れることに伴って発生するスティックスリップ音が原因で発生するであろうという知見を得るに至った。即ち、衝撃的な大振動荷重の入力によって受圧室に過大な圧力変動が惹起された場合に、可動ゴム膜に対して大きな変形が発生し、それが外周縁部の環状支持部に対して径方向斜め内方への引張力として作用することによって環状支持部が傾動することとなる。その結果、環状支持部とそれを挟持する支持部材との間に滑りが発生することが、異音であるスティックスリップ音の発生原因であろうということを見出したのである。   Although it was not easy to understand what caused the abnormal noise, the inventor cut and disassembled the anti-vibration device in which the abnormal noise occurred, and as a result, the annular support portion of the movable rubber film As a result, it has been found that a stick-slip sound generated due to tilting or the like with respect to the support member is likely to be generated. That is, when an excessive pressure fluctuation is induced in the pressure receiving chamber due to an input of a shocking large vibration load, a large deformation occurs in the movable rubber film, which is a diameter relative to the annular support portion at the outer peripheral edge. The annular support portion tilts by acting as a tensile force inwardly in the direction. As a result, it has been found that the occurrence of slip between the annular support portion and the support member sandwiching the annular support portion may be a cause of generation of stick-slip noise that is an abnormal noise.

なお、可動ゴム膜の環状支持部における支持部材に対する傾動スリップを防止する方策として、例えば(i)環状支持部のボリュームを大きくして剛性を向上させること、(ii)特許文献1(特開平09−310732号公報)にも示されているように、環状支持部の内周面を支持部材で挟んで環状支持部の傾動を阻止すること、(iii)特許文献2(特開2006−258184号公報)にも示されているように、可動ゴム膜の外周面に環状嵌着金具を加硫接着し、環状嵌着金具を支持部材に圧入固定すること、などが考えられる。   As a measure for preventing tilt slip with respect to the support member in the annular support portion of the movable rubber film, for example, (i) increasing the volume of the annular support portion to improve the rigidity, (ii) Patent Document 1 (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 09). (Iii) Patent Document 2 (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2006-258184), as shown in Japanese Patent No. -310732), preventing the annular support portion from tilting by sandwiching the inner peripheral surface of the annular support portion between the support members. As shown in Japanese Patent Laid-Open Publication No. H11-209, it is conceivable to vulcanize and bond an annular fitting to the outer peripheral surface of the movable rubber film, and press-fit and fix the annular fitting to the support member.

しかしながら、上記(i)、(ii)の流体封入式防振装置においては、何れも可動ゴム膜の有効面積が小さくなって目的とする液圧吸収性能ひいては防振性能が低下する問題があった。また、上記(iii)の流体封入式防振装置においては、別体の環状嵌着金具が必要となって部品点数が増加するだけでなく、加硫接着工程や加硫後の環状嵌着金具の絞り加工等の特別な製造工程が必要となる問題があった。加えて、これら(i)、(ii)、(iii)における流体封入式防振装置の何れにおいても、環状支持部の固定強度が大きくなることに伴い、可動ゴム膜の薄肉部分と環状支持部との境界部分に対する応力集中が大きくなって亀裂などが発生し易くなり、可動ゴム膜の耐久性が低下してしまうおそれがあった。   However, in the fluid-filled vibration isolators (i) and (ii), there is a problem that the effective area of the movable rubber film is reduced and the intended hydraulic pressure absorption performance and thus the vibration isolation performance is lowered. . Further, in the fluid-filled vibration isolator of (iii) above, a separate annular fitting is required, which not only increases the number of parts, but also the vulcanization bonding step and the vulcanized annular fitting. There is a problem that a special manufacturing process such as drawing is required. In addition, in any of the fluid-filled vibration isolators in (i), (ii), and (iii), as the fixing strength of the annular support portion increases, the thin portion of the movable rubber film and the annular support portion As a result, the stress concentration on the boundary portion increases and cracks and the like easily occur, and the durability of the movable rubber film may be reduced.

ここにおいて、本発明は、上述の如き事情を背景として為されたものであって、その解決課題とするところは、可動ゴム膜の有効面積を充分に確保しつつ、新たな部品や製造工程の増加を伴うこともなく、且つ優れた耐久性も確保しつつ、過大な振動荷重入力時における異音の発生を防止することの出来る、新規な構造の液圧吸収機構を備えた流体封入式防振装置を提供することにある。   Here, the present invention has been made in the background as described above, and the problem to be solved is that a sufficient area of the movable rubber film is ensured while a new part or manufacturing process is performed. A fluid-filled type anti-hydraulic system equipped with a new structure that can prevent the generation of abnormal noise when an excessive vibration load is input, while ensuring excellent durability. It is to provide a vibration device.

以下、このような課題を解決するために為された本発明の態様を記載する。なお、以下に記載の各態様において採用される構成要素は、可能な限り任意な組み合わせで採用可能である。また、本発明の態様乃至は技術的特徴は、以下に記載のものに限定されることなく、明細書全体および図面に記載されたもの、或いはそれらの記載から当業者が把握することの出来る発明思想に基づいて認識されるものであることが理解されるべきである。   Hereinafter, the aspect of this invention made | formed in order to solve such a subject is described. In addition, the component employ | adopted in each aspect as described below is employable by arbitrary combinations as much as possible. Further, aspects or technical features of the present invention are not limited to those described below, but are described in the entire specification and drawings, or an invention that can be understood by those skilled in the art from those descriptions. It should be understood that it is recognized based on thought.

すなわち、本発明の特徴とするところは、第一の取付部材と第二の取付部材を本体ゴム弾性体で連結すると共に、本体ゴム弾性体で壁部の一部が構成されて非圧縮性流体が封入された受圧室と、可撓性膜で壁部の一部が構成されて非圧縮性流体が封入された平衡室を形成して、それら受圧室と平衡室をオリフィス通路によって相互に連通すると共に、それら受圧室と平衡室の間に可動ゴム膜を配設して可動ゴム膜の一方の面に受圧室の圧力が及ぼされるようにすると共に可動ゴム膜の他方の面に平衡室の圧力が及ぼされるようにすることにより受圧室の微小圧力変動を吸収する液圧吸収機構を構成した流体封入式防振装置において、可動ゴム膜の外周縁部を全周に亘って両面上に突出させて環状の厚肉挟持部を一体形成せしめ、第二の取付部材に対して固定的に設けられた支持部材によって厚肉挟持部を厚さ方向両側から挟んで挟圧支持することにより、厚肉挟持部の内周側の薄肉部において弾性変形が許容される状態で可動ゴム膜を配設すると共に、可動ゴム膜の両面における厚肉挟持部とその内周側の薄肉部との境界部分には、周上の複数箇所において厚肉挟持部から薄肉部に向かって延び出したハンチ状の隅部肉付部を一体形成した流体封入式防振装置にある。   That is, the present invention is characterized in that the first mounting member and the second mounting member are connected by the main rubber elastic body, and a part of the wall portion is configured by the main rubber elastic body so that the incompressible fluid is formed. And a pressure-receiving chamber in which a part of the wall portion is formed by a flexible membrane to form an incompressible fluid, and the pressure-receiving chamber and the equilibrium chamber communicate with each other by an orifice passage. In addition, a movable rubber film is disposed between the pressure receiving chamber and the equilibrium chamber so that the pressure of the pressure receiving chamber is exerted on one surface of the movable rubber film and the equilibrium chamber is disposed on the other surface of the movable rubber film. In a fluid-filled vibration isolator that constitutes a hydraulic pressure absorption mechanism that absorbs minute pressure fluctuations in the pressure receiving chamber by applying pressure, the outer peripheral edge of the movable rubber film protrudes on both sides over the entire circumference To form the annular thick-wall clamping part integrally, and the second mounting part A state in which elastic deformation is allowed in the thin portion on the inner peripheral side of the thick sandwiching portion by sandwiching and supporting the thick sandwiching portion from both sides in the thickness direction by the support member fixedly provided with respect to The movable rubber film is disposed at the boundary between the thick sandwiched portion on both sides of the movable rubber film and the thin portion on the inner periphery side, and the thick sandwiched portion is directed from the thick sandwiched portion to the thin portion at a plurality of locations on the circumference. The fluid-filled vibration isolator is integrally formed with a hunched corner fillet portion that extends in the form of a part.

このような本発明に従う構造とされた流体封入式防振装置においては、隅部肉付部が厚肉挟持部と薄肉部の接続部分となる境界部分に形成されていることにより、境界部分の厚肉化に基づいて剛性の向上が図られ、ひいては厚肉挟持部の支持部材による挟圧保持力が増大される。その結果、厚肉挟持部が支持部材によって強固に挟圧保持されることとなり、厚肉挟持部の支持部材に対する傾動が抑えられて、厚肉挟持部の傾動に起因すると考えられるスティックスリップ音などの異音が抑制される。   In the fluid-filled vibration isolator having the structure according to the present invention, the corner wall portion is formed at the boundary portion that becomes the connection portion between the thick sandwich portion and the thin portion, so that the boundary portion Rigidity is improved on the basis of the thickening, and as a result, the holding pressure holding force by the support member of the thick holding portion is increased. As a result, the thick sandwiched portion is firmly held by the support member, and the tilting of the thick sandwiched portion with respect to the support member is suppressed, and the stick-slip sound that is considered to be caused by the tilt of the thick sandwiched portion, etc. Noise is suppressed.

特に、隅部肉付部が可動ゴム膜の周上で分断状態で複数形成されていることから、可動ゴム膜における隅部肉付部が形成されていない部分では、可動ゴム膜の有効自由長が、隅部肉付部が形成されていない長さに近い長さで、大きく確保される。それ故、隅部肉付部による厚肉挟持部の傾動防止効果が、可動ゴム膜の液圧吸収機能の大幅な低下を伴うことなく達成されて、所期の防振性能も効果的に発揮され得る。   In particular, since a plurality of corner beveled portions are formed in a divided state on the periphery of the movable rubber film, an effective free length of the movable rubber film is provided in a portion of the movable rubber film where the corner beveled portions are not formed. However, the length is close to the length in which the corner portion is not formed, and is secured largely. Therefore, the effect of preventing the tilting of the thick sandwiched portion by the cornered portion is achieved without significantly reducing the fluid pressure absorbing function of the movable rubber film, and the desired vibration-proof performance is also exhibited effectively. Can be done.

さらに、隅部肉付部が、可動ゴム膜における厚肉挟持部と薄肉部の境界部分の周上において分断状態で複数形成されていることによって、境界部分が周上でジグザグ状とされている。その結果、本発明に係る境界部分の周長が、全周に亘って一定の径寸法で延びる境界部分の周長に比して、大きくされる。これにより、かかる境界部分に作用する応力が分散低減されて、亀裂の発生が抑えられると共に、耐久性の向上が図られ得る。   Furthermore, a plurality of corner-filled portions are formed in a divided state on the periphery of the boundary portion between the thick sandwiched portion and the thin portion in the movable rubber film, so that the boundary portion is zigzag on the periphery. . As a result, the perimeter of the boundary portion according to the present invention is made larger than the perimeter of the boundary portion that extends with a constant diameter over the entire circumference. As a result, the stress acting on the boundary portion is dispersed and reduced, the generation of cracks is suppressed, and the durability can be improved.

加えて、隅部肉付部が、厚肉挟持部から薄肉部に向かって次第に高さ寸法が小さくなる断面略三角状のハンチ形状とされていることにより、かかる隅部肉付部の形成部分自体においても応力の分散低減が図られる。それ故、隅部肉付部を備えた可動ゴム膜の耐久性が向上されて、スティックスリップ音を防止する信頼性が高くなる。   In addition, the corner wall portion is formed into a haunch shape having a substantially triangular cross section, the height dimension of which gradually decreases from the thick sandwich portion toward the thin portion, thereby forming the corner wall portion. Even in itself, the dispersion of stress can be reduced. Therefore, the durability of the movable rubber film provided with the cornered portion is improved, and the reliability of preventing stick-slip noise is increased.

なお、本発明では、可動ゴム膜の厚肉挟持部が支持部材で挟圧支持せしめられた状態下、厚肉挟持部の外周面も支持部材に対して径方向で密接されていることが望ましい。より好適には、所定の押圧力をもって、かかる支持部材が厚肉挟持部の外周面に対して径方向に当接されていることが有効であり、それによって、厚肉挟持部に対してより大きな強度の保持力が作用せしめられる。また、本発明においてハンチ状とは、厚肉挟持部と薄肉部の接続部分となる境界部分において、可動ゴム膜の軸方向に延びる高さ方向の断面が、高さ寸法の大きな厚肉挟持部側から薄肉部側に向かって高さ寸法が小さくなる三角状を呈している形態をいう。   In the present invention, it is desirable that the outer peripheral surface of the thick sandwiching portion is also in close contact with the support member in the radial direction while the thick sandwiching portion of the movable rubber film is sandwiched and supported by the support member. . More preferably, it is effective that the supporting member is in contact with the outer peripheral surface of the thick sandwiching portion in a radial direction with a predetermined pressing force. A large holding force is applied. Further, in the present invention, the haunch shape is a thick-walled sandwiching portion in which the cross section in the height direction extending in the axial direction of the movable rubber film has a large height dimension at the boundary portion that becomes the connecting portion between the thick-walled sandwiching portion and the thin-walled portion. The form which is exhibiting the triangular shape from which a height dimension becomes small toward the thin part side from the side is said.

また、本発明に係る流体封入式防振装置では、隅部肉付部が、可動ゴム膜の両面で同じ位置に形成されている構造が、採用されても良い。このような構造によれば、可動ゴム膜における隅部肉付部の形成部位において高さ方向のゴムボリュームが大きく確保される。それ故、厚肉挟持部の傾動を抑える力が一層大きく働いて、傾動に起因するスティックスリップ音がより有効に低減される。また、特に、形状や大きさ等の形態が同一の隅部肉付部が可動ゴム膜の両面に設けられることで、可動ゴム膜の両面を区別する負担が軽減されることから、可動ゴム膜の組み付け作業がより簡単になる。   Moreover, in the fluid-filled vibration isolator according to the present invention, a structure in which the corner portions are formed at the same position on both surfaces of the movable rubber film may be employed. According to such a structure, a large rubber volume in the height direction is ensured at the portion where the corner portion is formed in the movable rubber film. Therefore, the force that suppresses the tilting of the thick sandwiching portion is further increased, and the stick-slip noise resulting from the tilting is more effectively reduced. In particular, since the corner-filled portions having the same shape, size, and the like are provided on both surfaces of the movable rubber film, the burden of distinguishing both surfaces of the movable rubber film is reduced. Assembling work becomes easier.

また、本発明に係る流体封入式防振装置では、隅部肉付部が、可動ゴム膜の周上で等間隔に3つ以上形成されている構造が、採用されても良い。このような構造によれば、複数の隅部肉付部において局所的な変形が抑えられることによって、応力集中に起因する耐久性能の低下が軽減されると共に、厚肉挟持部の傾動防止効果が周方向の全体に亘って効率良く発揮される。   In the fluid-filled vibration isolator according to the present invention, a structure in which three or more corner portions are formed at equal intervals on the periphery of the movable rubber film may be employed. According to such a structure, the local deformation is suppressed in the plurality of corner wall portions, so that a decrease in the durability performance due to the stress concentration is reduced, and the tilt prevention effect of the thick sandwich portion is reduced. It is efficiently exhibited over the entire circumferential direction.

また、本発明に係る流体封入式防振装置では、第二の取付部材に対して固定的に支持されて受圧室と平衡室を仕切る仕切部材が設けられており、仕切部材の中央部分に可動ゴム膜が配設されていると共に、仕切部材によって支持部材が構成されている一方、仕切部材の外周部分にオリフィス通路が形成されている構造が、採用されても良い。このような構造によれば、可動ゴム膜を支持する支持部材が、受圧室と平衡室を仕切る仕切部材を利用して構成されることから、部品点数や製造工程の削減が図られて、更なる低コスト化が達成され得る。また、かかる仕切部材の外周部分にオリフィス通路が形成されて、防振装置の内部構造がコンパクトになる結果、小型化が図られ得る。   Further, in the fluid filled type vibration damping device according to the present invention, a partition member that is fixedly supported by the second mounting member and partitions the pressure receiving chamber and the equilibrium chamber is provided, and is movable at a central portion of the partition member. A structure in which the rubber film is disposed and the support member is configured by the partition member while the orifice passage is formed in the outer peripheral portion of the partition member may be employed. According to such a structure, since the support member that supports the movable rubber film is configured by using the partition member that partitions the pressure receiving chamber and the equilibrium chamber, the number of parts and the manufacturing process can be reduced. A lower cost can be achieved. Further, the orifice passage is formed in the outer peripheral portion of the partition member, and the internal structure of the vibration isolator is made compact, so that the size can be reduced.

また、本発明に係る流体封入式防振装置では、可動ゴム膜の中央部分において厚さ方向両側に突出する弾性突出部が一体形成されており、第二の取付部材に対して固定的に設けられた当接部材に対して弾性突出部が当接することにより、可動ゴム膜の中央部分における弾性変形が制限されている構造が、採用されても良い。このような構造によれば、可動ゴム膜において弾性突出部が形成された薄肉部の中央部分における弾性変形と厚肉挟持部が形成された薄肉部の外周縁部における弾性変形が、当接部材や支持部材で制限される。その結果、薄肉部の中央部分と外周縁部の間における有効面積の大きな中間部分が、当接部材乃至は支持部材を介して第二の取付部材に安定して支持せしめられる。それ故、薄肉部の中間部分の弾性変形によって受圧室の圧力変動が効率的に吸収され、受圧室の液圧吸収効果が一層効果的に得られる。また、可動ゴム膜の中央部分が弾性突出部を介して当接部材に当接するようになっていることから、弾性突出部の弾性による緩衝作用に基づいて、可動ゴム膜と当接部材の打ち当たりに伴う打音が低減され得る。   Further, in the fluid filled type vibration isolator according to the present invention, the elastic protrusions protruding to the both sides in the thickness direction are integrally formed in the central portion of the movable rubber film, and are fixedly provided to the second mounting member. A structure in which the elastic deformation at the central portion of the movable rubber film is restricted by the elastic protrusion coming into contact with the contact member formed may be employed. According to such a structure, the elastic deformation in the central portion of the thin portion where the elastic protrusion is formed in the movable rubber film and the elastic deformation in the outer peripheral portion of the thin portion where the thick sandwiching portion is formed are the contact member. And the support member. As a result, an intermediate portion having a large effective area between the central portion and the outer peripheral edge portion of the thin wall portion is stably supported by the second mounting member via the contact member or the support member. Therefore, the pressure variation of the pressure receiving chamber is efficiently absorbed by the elastic deformation of the intermediate portion of the thin wall portion, and the hydraulic pressure absorption effect of the pressure receiving chamber can be obtained more effectively. In addition, since the central portion of the movable rubber film is in contact with the contact member via the elastic protrusion, the impact of the movable rubber film and the contact member is based on the buffering action by the elasticity of the elastic protrusion. The hitting sound associated with the hit can be reduced.

また、本発明に係る流体封入式防振装置では、弾性突出部には、可動ゴム膜の両側面に貫通して延びるリリーフ用孔が形成されていると共に、リリーフ用孔の内部が平衡室に対して常時連通されている一方、リリーフ用孔における受圧室側への開口端面に対して当接部材が重ね合わされて覆蓋されている構造が、採用されても良い。このような構造によれば、衝撃的な乃至は大荷重の振動が入力されて、受圧室に過大な負圧が生ぜしめられた際に、当接部材を負圧の作用でリリーフ用孔の開口端面から離隔せしめて、リリーフ用孔を開口状態とすることにより、受圧室と平衡室をリリーフ用孔を通じて短絡せしめることが可能となる。それによって、受圧室の圧力と平衡室の圧力が平衡状態に向かうことから、受圧室の過負圧状態が解消されて、過負圧状態による受圧室の溶存空気の分離に起因するキャビテーション気泡の発生が抑えられる。それ故、キャビテーション気泡の崩壊に伴い水撃圧が第一の取付部材や第二の取付部材を介して防振対象部材に伝播することに起因する衝撃的な異音や振動の発生も抑えられるのである。   Further, in the fluid filled type vibration damping device according to the present invention, the elastic protrusion is formed with a relief hole extending through both sides of the movable rubber film, and the inside of the relief hole is an equilibrium chamber. On the other hand, a structure in which the contact member is overlapped with and covered with the opening end surface toward the pressure receiving chamber in the relief hole may be employed while being always in communication. According to such a structure, when a shocking or heavy load vibration is input and an excessive negative pressure is generated in the pressure receiving chamber, the contact member is moved by the negative pressure to the relief hole. By separating from the opening end face and opening the relief hole, the pressure receiving chamber and the equilibrium chamber can be short-circuited through the relief hole. As a result, the pressure in the pressure receiving chamber and the pressure in the equilibrium chamber are brought into an equilibrium state, so the overnegative pressure state in the pressure receiving chamber is eliminated, and the cavitation bubbles caused by separation of dissolved air in the pressure receiving chamber due to the overnegative pressure state are eliminated. Occurrence is suppressed. Therefore, the occurrence of shocking abnormal noise and vibration caused by the water hammer pressure propagating to the vibration isolation target member via the first mounting member and the second mounting member with the collapse of the cavitation bubbles can be suppressed. It is.

ここで、弾性突出部が可動ゴム膜の中央部分に形成された形態の流体封入式防振装置においては、可動ゴム膜における薄肉部の中央部分の弾性変形が弾性突出部で制限されることに起因して、薄肉部の有効自由長が小さくなる。そのため、「延び変形量/長さ」または「剪断変形量/長さ」で求められる引張歪または剪断歪が大きくなり、その結果、厚肉挟持部に対して斜め方向に及ぼされて厚肉挟持部を傾動させる力が一層大きくなるおそれがある。   Here, in the fluid-filled vibration isolator in which the elastic protrusion is formed at the central portion of the movable rubber film, the elastic deformation of the central portion of the thin portion of the movable rubber film is limited by the elastic protrusion. As a result, the effective free length of the thin portion is reduced. Therefore, the tensile strain or shear strain required by “elongation deformation amount / length” or “shear deformation amount / length” is increased, and as a result, it is exerted in an oblique direction with respect to the thick sandwich portion to sandwich the thick portion. There is a possibility that the force for tilting the portion is further increased.

そこにおいて、本発明に係る流体封入式防振装置では、薄肉部と厚肉挟持部の境界部分に隅部肉付部が形成されて、厚肉挟持部の剛性が大きくされていることによって、厚肉挟持部の傾動が抑えられることから、特に、上述の如き可動ゴム膜の中央部分に弾性突出部が形成された流体封入式防振装置に対して好適に採用され得る。   Therefore, in the fluid-filled vibration isolator according to the present invention, the corner wall portion is formed at the boundary portion between the thin portion and the thick sandwich portion, and the rigidity of the thick sandwich portion is increased, Since the tilting of the thick sandwiching portion can be suppressed, it can be suitably used particularly for a fluid-filled vibration isolator in which an elastic protrusion is formed at the central portion of the movable rubber film as described above.

以下、本発明を更に具体的に明らかにするために、本発明の実施形態について説明する。先ず、図1には、本発明の流体封入式防振装置に係る一実施形態としての自動車用エンジンマウント10が示されている。自動車用エンジンマウント10は、第一の取付部材としての第一の取付金具12と第二の取付部材としての第二の取付金具14が本体ゴム弾性体16で連結された構造とされている。第一の取付金具12がパワーユニット側に取り付けられると共に、第二の取付金具14が車両ボデー側に取り付けられることにより、パワーユニットが車両ボデーに対して防振支持されるようになっている。   Hereinafter, in order to clarify the present invention more specifically, embodiments of the present invention will be described.

この蓋部材38が仕切部材本体36の上端部分に重ね合わされると共に、仕切部材本体36の各係止突部60が、蓋部材38の各係止用孔72に挿通されて、周方向乃至は軸方向に係止されている。これにより、仕切部材本体36と蓋部材38が周方向で位置決めされつつ相互に組み付けられて、仕切部材34を構成している。また、仕切部材本体36の上側凹所40の開口部が蓋部材38で覆蓋せしめられることによって、上側凹所40の内側における蓋部材38と仕切部材本体36の円形底部44の軸方向対向面間には、上側凹所40の周壁部や蓋部材38、円形底部44で画成された収容領域74が設けられている。即ち、収容領域74が、仕切部材34の径方向中央部分の内部において軸方向に略一定の円形断面で延びている。特に本実施形態では、仕切部材本体36と蓋部材38が周方向で位置合わせされて同軸的に配されていることに基づき、仕切部材本体36における円形底部44の透孔48と蓋部材38の透孔64や、円形底部44の連通孔46と蓋部材38の連通孔62が、それぞれ軸方向で投影する位置に配されている。また、仕切部材本体36の連通窓56と蓋部材38の連通窓70が軸方向で重ね合わされている。   The lid member 38 is superimposed on the upper end portion of the partition member main body 36, and the locking protrusions 60 of the partition member main body 36 are inserted into the locking holes 72 of the lid member 38, so that It is locked in the axial direction.

Further, the communication window 56 of the partition member main body 36 and the communication window 70 of the lid member 38 are overlapped in the axial direction.

かかる仕切部材34が、前述のダイヤフラム28の第二の取付金具14への組み付けに先立って、第二の取付金具14の下方の開口部から軸方向に嵌め込まれて、仕切部材34の蓋部材38の外周部分が第二の取付金具14の段部20にシールゴム層26を介して重ね合わせられている。また、仕切部材34の仕切部材本体36の下端部分には、第二の取付金具14に嵌め込まれたダイヤフラム28の固定リング30が重ね合わせられている。そして、第二の取付金具14に八方絞り等の縮径加工が施されることによって、第二の取付金具14の縮径変形に基づき、仕切部材本体36の外周面や蓋部材38の外周面が軸直角方向に圧縮変形したシールゴム層26を介して第二の取付金具14の内周面に重ね合わせられていると共に、シールゴム層26の軸直角方向の圧縮変形に伴う軸方向の引張変形によって、仕切部材34の外周部分が第二の取付金具14の段部20とダイヤフラム28の固定リング30の間に挟圧固定されている。また、段部20に被着されたシールゴム層26が軸方向に圧縮変形しつつ、蓋部材38の外周部分と段部20の重ね合わせ面間に介装されていることによって、それら蓋部材38の外周部分と段部20が流体密に重ね合わせられている。   Prior to the assembly of the diaphragm 28 to the second mounting bracket 14, the partition member 34 is fitted in the axial direction from the opening below the second mounting bracket 14, and the lid member 38 of the partition member 34. The outer peripheral portion of the second mounting bracket 14 is superposed on the step portion 20 of the second mounting bracket 14 with a seal rubber layer 26 interposed therebetween. A fixing ring 30 of a diaphragm 28 fitted in the second mounting bracket 14 is overlaid on the lower end portion of the partition member main body 36 of the partition member 34. Then, the outer diameter of the partition member main body 36 and the outer diameter of the lid member 38 are obtained by reducing the diameter of the second mounting bracket 14 by reducing the diameter of the second mounting bracket 14 by reducing the diameter of the second mounting bracket 14. Is superimposed on the inner peripheral surface of the second mounting bracket 14 via a seal rubber layer 26 that is compressed and deformed in the direction perpendicular to the axis, and the tensile deformation in the axial direction accompanying the compression deformation in the direction perpendicular to the axis of the seal rubber layer 26 The outer peripheral portion of the partition member 34 is clamped and fixed between the step portion 20 of the second mounting bracket 14 and the fixing ring 30 of the diaphragm 28. Further, the sealing rubber layer 26 attached to the stepped portion 20 is interposed between the outer peripheral portion of the lid member 38 and the overlapping surface of the stepped portion 20 while being compressed and deformed in the axial direction. The outer peripheral portion and the stepped portion 20 are fluid-tightly overlapped.

これにより、仕切部材34が第二の取付金具14に固定的に支持されて、第二の取付金具14の内側の流体封入領域32を流体密に二分している。流体封入領域32の仕切部材34を挟んだ一方(図1中、上)の側には、壁部の一部が本体ゴム弾性体16で構成されて、本体ゴム弾性体16の弾性変形に基づき圧力変動が生ぜしめられる受圧室76が形成されている。また、流体封入領域32の仕切部材34を挟んだ他方(図1中、下)の側には、壁部の一部がダイヤフラム28で構成されて、ダイヤフラム28の弾性変形に基づき容積変化が容易に許容される平衡室78が形成されている。これら受圧室76や平衡室78には、非圧縮性流体が封入されている。封入流体としては、例えば水やアルキレングリコール, ポリアルキレングリコール, シリコーン油等が採用されるが、特に流体の共振作用等の流動作用に基づく防振効果を有効に得るためには、0.1Pa・s以下の低粘性流体を採用することが望ましい。受圧室76や平衡室78への非圧縮性流体の封入は、例えば、第一及び第二の取付金具12,14を備えた本体ゴム弾性体16の一体加硫成形品に対する仕切部材34やダイヤフラム28の組み付けを非圧縮性流体中で行うことによって、好適に実現される。   Thereby, the partition member 34 is fixedly supported by the second mounting bracket 14, and the fluid sealing region 32 inside the second mounting bracket 14 is divided into two fluid-tightly. On one side (upper side in FIG. 1) of the fluid sealing region 32 with the partition member 34 interposed therebetween, a part of the wall portion is constituted by the main rubber elastic body 16, and based on the elastic deformation of the main rubber elastic body 16. A pressure receiving chamber 76 in which pressure fluctuation is generated is formed. Further, on the other side (lower side in FIG. 1) of the fluid sealing region 32 with the partition member 34 interposed therebetween, a part of the wall portion is constituted by the diaphragm 28, and the volume change is easy based on the elastic deformation of the diaphragm 28. An equilibration chamber 78 is formed. An incompressible fluid is sealed in the pressure receiving chamber 76 and the equilibrium chamber 78. As the sealing fluid, for example, water, alkylene glycol, polyalkylene glycol, silicone oil or the like is adopted, and in order to effectively obtain a vibration isolation effect based on a fluid action such as a resonance action of the fluid, 0.1 Pa · It is desirable to employ a low-viscosity fluid of s or less. The incompressible fluid is sealed in the pressure receiving chamber 76 or the equilibrium chamber 78, for example, the partition member 34 or the diaphragm for the integrally vulcanized molded product of the main rubber elastic body 16 including the first and second mounting brackets 12 and 14. It is preferably realized by performing the assembly of 28 in an incompressible fluid.

また、仕切部材本体36の周溝54が第二の取付金具14で流体密に覆蓋されることにより、仕切部材34の外周部分を周方向に所定の長さで螺旋状に延びるオリフィス通路80が形成されている。このオリフィス通路80の一方の端部が、仕切部材本体36の連通窓56や蓋部材38の連通窓70等を通じて受圧室76に接続されていると共に、オリフィス通路80の他方の端部が、仕切部材本体36の連通窓58を通じて平衡室78に接続されている。これにより、受圧室76と平衡室78がオリフィス通路80を通じて相互に連通せしめられて、それら両室76,78間でオリフィス通路80を通じての流体流動が許容されるようになっている。   Further, the circumferential groove 54 of the partition member main body 36 is fluid-tightly covered with the second mounting bracket 14, so that an orifice passage 80 extending spirally around the outer peripheral portion of the partition member 34 with a predetermined length in the circumferential direction. Is formed. One end of the orifice passage 80 is connected to the pressure receiving chamber 76 through the communication window 56 of the partition member main body 36, the communication window 70 of the lid member 38, and the like, and the other end of the orifice passage 80 is connected to the partition. The member body 36 is connected to the equilibrium chamber 78 through the communication window 58. Thus, the pressure receiving chamber 76 and the equilibrium chamber 78 are communicated with each other through the orifice passage 80, and fluid flow through the orifice passage 80 is allowed between the chambers 76 and 78.

本実施形態では、オリフィス通路80を通じて流動せしめられる流体の共振周波数が、該流体の共振作用に基づいてエンジンシェイク等に相当する10Hz前後の低周波数域の振動に対して有効な防振効果(高減衰効果)が発揮されるようにチューニングされている。オリフィス通路80のチューニングは、例えば、受圧室76や平衡室78の各壁ばね剛性、即ちそれら各室76,78を単位容積だけ変化させるのに必要な圧力変化量に対応する本体ゴム弾性体16やダイヤフラム28等の各弾性変形量に基づく特性値を考慮しつつ、オリフィス通路80の通路長さと通路断面積を調節することによって行うことが可能であり、一般に、オリフィス通路80を通じて伝達される圧力変動の位相が変化して略共振状態となる周波数を、当該オリフィス通路80のチューニング周波数として把握することが出来る。   In the present embodiment, the resonance frequency of the fluid that flows through the orifice passage 80 is effective against vibrations in a low frequency region around 10 Hz corresponding to an engine shake or the like (high vibration effect) based on the resonance action of the fluid. It is tuned so that the damping effect is demonstrated. Tuning of the orifice passage 80 is performed by, for example, the rigidity of the wall springs of the pressure receiving chamber 76 and the equilibrium chamber 78, that is, the main rubber elastic body 16 corresponding to the amount of pressure change required to change the chambers 76 and 78 by a unit volume. It is possible to adjust the length and cross-sectional area of the orifice passage 80 in consideration of the characteristic values based on the respective elastic deformation amounts of the diaphragm 28 and the diaphragm 28. Generally, the pressure transmitted through the orifice passage 80 The frequency at which the phase of the change changes and becomes a substantially resonant state can be grasped as the tuning frequency of the orifice passage 80.

また、仕切部材34に形成された収容領域74が、蓋部材38の透孔62や連通孔64を通じて受圧室76と連通されていると共に、仕切部材本体36の透孔48や連通孔46を通じて平衡室78と連通されている。なお、収容領域74の形成は、仕切部材34が第二の取付金具14に固定される前に、蓋部材38が仕切部材本体36の上端部に密着状に重ね合わせられて固定されることによって形成されても良く、或いは仕切部材34が第二の取付金具14に取り付けられる際に、第二の取付金具14の段部20とダイヤフラム28の固定リング30の軸方向間に及ぼされる挟圧作用を利用して、蓋部材38が仕切部材本体36の上端部に密着状に重ね合わせられることで形成されても良い。   The accommodation region 74 formed in the partition member 34 communicates with the pressure receiving chamber 76 through the through hole 62 and the communication hole 64 of the lid member 38 and is balanced through the through hole 48 and the communication hole 46 of the partition member main body 36. It communicates with the chamber 78. In addition, the storage area 74 is formed by the cover member 38 being overlapped and fixed to the upper end portion of the partition member main body 36 before the partition member 34 is fixed to the second mounting bracket 14. It may be formed, or when the partition member 34 is attached to the second mounting member 14, a pinching action exerted between the step 20 of the second mounting member 14 and the axial direction of the fixing ring 30 of the diaphragm 28. The lid member 38 may be formed by being closely adhered to the upper end portion of the partition member main body 36 using the above.

仕切部材34の収容領域74には、可動ゴム膜としてのゴム弾性膜82が収容配置されている。ゴム弾性膜82は、図5,6にも示されているように、ゴム弾性材からなり、全体として略円板形状を有している。ゴム弾性膜82は、薄肉部としての平板状部84や厚肉挟持部としての周縁突部86を含んで構成されている。   A rubber elastic film 82 as a movable rubber film is accommodated in the accommodation area 74 of the partition member 34. As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the rubber elastic film 82 is made of a rubber elastic material and has a substantially disk shape as a whole. The rubber elastic film 82 includes a flat plate portion 84 as a thin portion and a peripheral protrusion 86 as a thick sandwich portion.

平板状部84は、薄肉の略円環板形状を有している。平板状部84の厚さ寸法は、収容領域74の軸方向寸法となる蓋部材38と仕切部材本体36の円形底部44との軸方向の離隔距離、換言すると上側凹所40の軸方向寸法に比して、小さくされている。なお、本実施形態に係る平板状部84の厚さ寸法は、全体に亘って略一定とされているが、要求されるばね特性等に応じて、例えば、径方向中央部分から径方向外方に向かって次第に大きくされていたり、突部や溝部、凹所等が形成されていても良い。   The flat plate-like portion 84 has a thin and substantially annular plate shape. The thickness dimension of the flat plate portion 84 is the axial distance between the lid member 38 and the circular bottom portion 44 of the partition member main body 36, which is the axial dimension of the accommodating region 74, in other words, the axial dimension of the upper recess 40. It is smaller than that. In addition, although the thickness dimension of the flat plate-shaped portion 84 according to the present embodiment is substantially constant over the whole, for example, depending on the required spring characteristics, for example, radially outward from the radial center portion It may be gradually enlarged toward the surface, or a protrusion, a groove, a recess, or the like may be formed.

一方、周縁突部86は、平板状部84の外周縁部から径方向外方に延び出すように平板状部84と一体形成されて、平板状部84よりも軸方向外方に突出する略矩形断面で周方向に連続して延びている。即ち、周縁突部86は、平板状部84よりも厚肉とされて、円環形状を呈している。ゴム弾性膜82が仕切部材34に組み付けられる前の段階で、周縁突部86の軸方向寸法が収容領域74の軸方向寸法に比して大きくされている。また、周縁突部86の外径寸法が、収容領域74の軸直角方向寸法となる仕切部材本体36の上側凹所40の径寸法よりも僅かに小さくされている。   On the other hand, the peripheral protrusion 86 is formed integrally with the flat plate portion 84 so as to extend outward in the radial direction from the outer peripheral edge portion of the flat plate portion 84, and protrudes outward in the axial direction from the flat plate portion 84. It extends continuously in the circumferential direction with a rectangular cross section. In other words, the peripheral protrusion 86 is thicker than the flat plate portion 84 and has an annular shape. Before the rubber elastic film 82 is assembled to the partition member 34, the axial dimension of the peripheral protrusion 86 is made larger than the axial dimension of the accommodation region 74. In addition, the outer diameter dimension of the peripheral protrusion 86 is slightly smaller than the diameter dimension of the upper recess 40 of the partition member main body 36 that is the dimension perpendicular to the axis of the accommodation region 74.

特に本実施形態では、ゴム弾性膜82の平板状部84の径方向中央部分において、弾性突出部としての中央突部88が、軸方向に延びる厚さ方向(図1中、上下)の両側に突出して平板状部84と一体形成されている。中央突部88は、仕切部材本体36や蓋部材38の各連通孔46,62の径寸法よりも大きな円形断面でゴム弾性膜82の両面から軸方向外方に略等しい距離だけ突出せしめられている。また、ゴム弾性膜82が仕切部材34に組み付けられる前の段階で、中央突部88の軸方向寸法(厚さ寸法)が、周縁突部86の軸方向寸法よりも僅かに大きくされており、収容領域74の軸方向寸法に比して大きくされている。   In particular, in the present embodiment, in the radial center portion of the flat plate portion 84 of the rubber elastic film 82, the central protrusion 88 as the elastic protrusion is on both sides in the thickness direction (up and down in FIG. 1) extending in the axial direction. It protrudes and is integrally formed with the flat plate portion 84. The central protrusion 88 has a circular cross section larger than the diameter of each of the communication holes 46 and 62 of the partition member main body 36 and the lid member 38 and is protruded from the both surfaces of the rubber elastic film 82 by a substantially equal distance outward in the axial direction. Yes. The axial dimension (thickness dimension) of the central protrusion 88 is slightly larger than the axial dimension of the peripheral protrusion 86 before the rubber elastic film 82 is assembled to the partition member 34. The housing area 74 is made larger than the axial dimension.

さらに、中央突部88の径方向中央部分には、軸方向に略一定の円形断面で延びてその軸方向両端面を貫通するリリーフ用孔90が形成されている。リリーフ用孔90の径寸法が、仕切部材本体36や蓋部材38の各連通孔46,62の径寸法と略同じとされている。即ち、本実施形態においては、中央突部88とリリーフ用孔90が協働して、ゴム弾性膜82の厚さ寸法よりも大きな軸方向寸法の円筒状部を構成しており、かかる円筒状部が、ゴム弾性膜82の径方向中央部分に貫通配置された形態を有している。その結果、ゴム弾性膜82における薄肉の平板状部84が、中央突部88が突設された径方向中央部分と周縁突部86が一体形成された径方向外周縁部の間の円環形状の領域に形成されている。   Further, a relief hole 90 extending in a substantially constant circular cross section in the axial direction and penetrating both axial end faces is formed in the central portion in the radial direction of the central protrusion 88. The diameter of the relief hole 90 is substantially the same as the diameter of each of the communication holes 46 and 62 of the partition member main body 36 and the lid member 38. That is, in the present embodiment, the central protrusion 88 and the relief hole 90 cooperate to constitute a cylindrical portion having an axial dimension larger than the thickness dimension of the rubber elastic film 82. The part has a configuration in which the rubber elastic film 82 is disposed through the central portion in the radial direction. As a result, the thin flat plate-like portion 84 in the rubber elastic film 82 has an annular shape between the radial center portion where the central protrusion 88 is protruded and the radially outer peripheral portion where the peripheral protrusion 86 is integrally formed. It is formed in the area.

このゴム弾性膜82が仕切部材本体36の上側凹所40に嵌め込まれて、ゴム弾性膜82の外周縁部に形成された周縁突部86の下端面が、仕切部材本体36の円形底部44の外周部分に重ね合わされている。特に、周縁突部86の外径寸法が上側凹所40の径寸法に比して僅かに小さくされていることから、周縁突部86を上側凹所40に嵌め込むことで、ゴム弾性膜82と仕切部材本体36が同軸的に位置決め配置されるセンタリング機能が働く。それによって、仕切部材本体36の円形底部44の中心軸とゴム弾性膜82のリリーフ用孔90の中心軸が略同一線上に位置せしめられて、リリーフ用孔90の一方(図1中、下)の開口周縁部を構成する中央突部88の一方の突出先端部分と円形底部44の連通孔46の開口周縁部とが、軸方向で対向位置せしめられている。また、周縁突部86の一方の突出先端部分と円形底部44の透孔48よりも径方向外方の外周部分が、軸方向で対向位置せしめられている。このようにゴム弾性膜82を上側凹所44に嵌め込むと、中央突部88や周縁突部86の他方(図1中、上)の突出先端部分が、上側凹所44の開口端面よりも軸方向外方に突出せしめられる。   The rubber elastic film 82 is fitted into the upper recess 40 of the partition member main body 36, and the lower end surface of the peripheral protrusion 86 formed on the outer peripheral edge of the rubber elastic film 82 is formed on the circular bottom 44 of the partition member main body 36. It is superimposed on the outer periphery. In particular, since the outer diameter of the peripheral protrusion 86 is slightly smaller than the diameter of the upper recess 40, the rubber elastic film 82 can be obtained by fitting the peripheral protrusion 86 into the upper recess 40. And a centering function in which the partition member main body 36 is positioned coaxially. Thereby, the central axis of the circular bottom 44 of the partition member main body 36 and the central axis of the relief hole 90 of the rubber elastic film 82 are positioned substantially on the same line, and one of the relief holes 90 (below in FIG. 1). One projecting tip portion of the central projecting portion 88 that constitutes the peripheral edge portion of the opening and the peripheral edge portion of the communication hole 46 of the circular bottom portion 44 are opposed to each other in the axial direction. Further, one protruding tip portion of the peripheral protrusion 86 and the outer peripheral portion radially outward from the through hole 48 of the circular bottom portion 44 are opposed to each other in the axial direction. When the rubber elastic film 82 is fitted into the upper recess 44 in this way, the other protruding tip portion of the center protrusion 88 and the peripheral protrusion 86 (upper in FIG. 1) is more than the opening end surface of the upper recess 44. It is projected outward in the axial direction.

さらに、蓋部材38が仕切部材本体36の上端部に重ね合わせられて、蓋部材38と仕切部材本体36が同軸的に位置合わせされていることに伴い、蓋部材38とゴム弾性膜82も同軸的に位置合わせされている。ここで、中央突部88の突出先端部分が、蓋部材38の連通孔62の周りと軸方向で対向位置せしめられていると共に、周縁突部86の突出先端部分が、蓋部材38の透孔64よりも径方向外方の外周部分と軸方向で対向位置せしめられている。そして、蓋部材38が仕切部材本体36の上端部に密着状に重ね合わされて、収容領域74が形成されることに伴い、上側凹所40から突出した周縁突部86や中央突部88に対して蓋部材38が軸方向に押し当てられる。   Further, the lid member 38 is superimposed on the upper end portion of the partition member body 36, and the lid member 38 and the partition member body 36 are coaxially aligned, so that the lid member 38 and the rubber elastic film 82 are also coaxial. Are aligned. Here, the projecting tip portion of the central projection 88 is axially opposed to the periphery of the communication hole 62 of the lid member 38, and the projecting tip portion of the peripheral projection 86 is the through hole of the lid member 38. It is opposed to the outer peripheral portion radially outward from 64 in the axial direction. Then, the cover member 38 is closely overlapped with the upper end portion of the partition member main body 36 to form the accommodation region 74, so that the peripheral protrusion 86 and the central protrusion 88 protruding from the upper recess 40 are formed. Thus, the lid member 38 is pressed in the axial direction.

これにより、周縁突部86が、収容領域74の外周側において蓋部材38と円形底部44の間に挟圧配置されることに基づき軸方向に圧縮変形されて、周縁突部86の軸方向両端面が、蓋部材38と円形底部44にそれぞれ密接されている。また、周縁突部86の軸方向の圧縮変形による軸直角方向の膨出変形に伴い、周縁突部86の外周面が、収容領域74の周壁部を構成する上側凹所40の周壁面に対して密接されている。その結果、ゴム弾性膜82の外周縁部が、第二の取付金具14に固定された仕切部材34によって固定的に支持せしめられていると共に、ゴム弾性膜82の外周縁部と収容領域74の壁部の間での自由な流体流動が阻止せしめられるようになっている。   As a result, the peripheral protrusion 86 is compressed and deformed in the axial direction on the outer peripheral side of the housing region 74 between the lid member 38 and the circular bottom 44, and both ends of the peripheral protrusion 86 in the axial direction are compressed. The surfaces are in close contact with the lid member 38 and the circular bottom 44, respectively. Further, along with the bulging deformation in the direction perpendicular to the axis due to the compressive deformation in the axial direction of the peripheral protrusion 86, the outer peripheral surface of the peripheral protrusion 86 is against the peripheral wall surface of the upper recess 40 constituting the peripheral wall portion of the housing region 74. Have been closely. As a result, the outer peripheral edge portion of the rubber elastic film 82 is fixedly supported by the partition member 34 fixed to the second mounting bracket 14, and the outer peripheral edge portion of the rubber elastic film 82 and the accommodation region 74. Free fluid flow between the walls is prevented.

また、ゴム弾性膜82の中央突部88が、収容領域74の径方向中央側において蓋部材38と円形底部44の間に挟圧配置されることに基づき軸方向に圧縮変形されて、中央突部88の軸方向両側の突出端面が、蓋部材38の下端面の連通孔62周りと円形底部44の上端面の連通孔46周りに、それぞれ密接されている。これにより、ゴム弾性膜82におけるリリーフ用孔90の一方(図1中、上)の開口部が、蓋部材38の連通孔62を通じて受圧室76に接続される一方、リリーフ用孔90の他方(図1中、下)の開口部が、円形底部44の連通孔46を通じて平衡室78に接続されている。   In addition, the central protrusion 88 of the rubber elastic film 82 is compressed and deformed in the axial direction based on being sandwiched between the lid member 38 and the circular bottom 44 on the radial center side of the housing region 74, so that the central protrusion The projecting end surfaces on both sides in the axial direction of the portion 88 are in close contact with the communication hole 62 around the lower end surface of the lid member 38 and the communication hole 46 around the upper end surface of the circular bottom 44. Thereby, one opening (upper in FIG. 1) of the relief hole 90 in the rubber elastic film 82 is connected to the pressure receiving chamber 76 through the communication hole 62 of the lid member 38, while the other opening ( The lower opening in FIG. 1 is connected to the equilibrium chamber 78 through the communication hole 46 in the circular bottom 44.

このようなゴム弾性膜82の仕切部材34への配設状態では、ゴム弾性膜82における周縁突部86を備えた外周縁部と、中央突部88を備えた径方向中央部分が、蓋部材38と仕切部材本体36の円形底部44の間において圧縮状態で挟圧支持せしめられている。即ち、中央突部88と周縁突部86には、軸方向の予圧縮が及ぼされている。   In such a state in which the rubber elastic film 82 is disposed on the partition member 34, the outer peripheral edge portion provided with the peripheral protrusion 86 and the radial center portion including the central protrusion 88 in the rubber elastic film 82 are the lid member. 38 and the circular bottom 44 of the partition member main body 36 are supported in a compressed state in a compressed state. In other words, the central protrusion 88 and the peripheral protrusion 86 are pre-compressed in the axial direction.

一方、ゴム弾性膜82において径方向中央部分と外周縁部の間の平板状部84が、収容領域74の軸方向の略中央部分において軸直角方向に広がるように配置せしめられて、軸方向一方の側で対向せしめられた蓋部材38と軸方向他方の側で対向せしめられた円形底部44に対して、互いに略等しい距離だけ離隔配置せしめられている。そして、蓋部材38の透孔62を通じて平板状部84の一方(図1中、上)の面に受圧室76の圧力が及ぼされるようになっていると共に、円形底部44の透孔46を通じて平板状部84の他方(図1中、下)の面に平衡室78の圧力が及ぼされるようになっている。   On the other hand, in the rubber elastic film 82, a flat plate-like portion 84 between the central portion in the radial direction and the outer peripheral edge portion is arranged so as to spread in a direction perpendicular to the axis at the substantially central portion in the axial direction of the accommodating region 74. The lid member 38 opposed to the other side and the circular bottom 44 opposed to the other side in the axial direction are spaced apart from each other by a substantially equal distance. The pressure of the pressure receiving chamber 76 is applied to one surface (upper in FIG. 1) of the flat plate portion 84 through the through hole 62 of the lid member 38, and the flat plate through the through hole 46 of the circular bottom portion 44. The pressure of the equilibrium chamber 78 is applied to the other surface (lower side in FIG. 1) of the shaped portion 84.

従って、本実施形態に係るゴム弾性膜82においては、径方向中央部分と外周縁部の弾性変形が仕切部材34により制限されている一方、平板状部84の弾性変形が仕切部材34の収容領域74内で許容されており、受圧室76と平衡室78の相対的な圧力差に基づいて平板状部84が弾性変形する。平板状部84の弾性変形によりゴム弾性膜82が変位すると、受圧室76の圧力変動が吸収される。即ち、受圧室76の液圧吸収機構が、ゴム弾性膜82や仕切部材本体36の透孔48、蓋部材38の透孔64を含んで構成されている。また、上述の説明からも明らかなように、第二の取付金具14に対して固定的に設けられて、中央突部88が当接することによりゴム弾性膜82の中央部分の弾性変形を制限する当接部材が、蓋部材38や仕切部材本体36の円形底部44を含んで構成されている。また、ゴム弾性膜82の平板状部84が厚さ方向に変位して、蓋部材38または仕切部材本体36の円形底部44に当接することにより、ゴム弾性膜82の厚さ方向の変位量が制限されて、ゴム弾性膜82の変位による受圧室76の液圧吸収作用が調整されるようになっている。   Therefore, in the rubber elastic film 82 according to the present embodiment, the elastic deformation of the radial central portion and the outer peripheral edge is restricted by the partition member 34, while the elastic deformation of the flat plate portion 84 is the accommodation region of the partition member 34. The flat plate portion 84 is elastically deformed based on the relative pressure difference between the pressure receiving chamber 76 and the equilibrium chamber 78. When the rubber elastic film 82 is displaced by the elastic deformation of the flat plate portion 84, the pressure fluctuation in the pressure receiving chamber 76 is absorbed. That is, the hydraulic pressure absorbing mechanism of the pressure receiving chamber 76 includes the rubber elastic film 82, the through hole 48 of the partition member main body 36, and the through hole 64 of the lid member 38. Further, as is apparent from the above description, it is fixedly provided with respect to the second mounting member 14, and the elastic deformation of the central portion of the rubber elastic film 82 is limited by the central protrusion 88 coming into contact therewith. The contact member includes the lid member 38 and the circular bottom portion 44 of the partition member main body 36. Further, when the flat plate portion 84 of the rubber elastic film 82 is displaced in the thickness direction and comes into contact with the circular bottom portion 44 of the lid member 38 or the partition member main body 36, the amount of displacement of the rubber elastic film 82 in the thickness direction is reduced. The hydraulic pressure absorption action of the pressure receiving chamber 76 due to the displacement of the rubber elastic film 82 is limited.

特に本実施形態では、アイドリング振動や低速こもり音等に相当する20〜40Hz程度の中周波数域の振動入力に際して、ゴム弾性膜82の弾性変形による受圧室76の液圧吸収効果に基づく防振効果(低動ばね特性に基づく振動絶縁効果)が有効に発揮されるように、ゴム弾性膜82の固有振動数がチューニングされている。   In particular, in the present embodiment, a vibration isolation effect based on the hydraulic pressure absorption effect of the pressure receiving chamber 76 due to the elastic deformation of the rubber elastic film 82 at the time of vibration input in the middle frequency range of about 20 to 40 Hz corresponding to idling vibration, low-speed booming sound, and the like. The natural frequency of the rubber elastic film 82 is tuned so that (the vibration insulation effect based on the low dynamic spring characteristic) is effectively exhibited.

さらに、仕切部材34の蓋部材38側には、弁部材92が配設されている。弁部材92は、薄肉の略円環板形状を有していると共に、好適にはばね鋼等の金属材を用いて形成されることによって、比較的に大きな弾性を備えている。弁部材92の外径寸法が、蓋部材38の外径寸法と略同じとされていると共に、弁部材92の内径寸法が、蓋部材38の透孔64における第二小孔68の径方向外方の周縁部の径寸法よりも大きくされている。また、弁部材92の外周縁部には、切欠き状の連通窓94が形成されている。更に、弁部材92の径方向中間部分には、周方向に離隔して複数(本実施形態では3つ)の係止用孔96が貫設されている。   Further, a valve member 92 is disposed on the lid member 38 side of the partition member 34. The valve member 92 has a thin, substantially annular plate shape, and preferably has a relatively large elasticity by being formed using a metal material such as spring steel. The outer diameter dimension of the valve member 92 is substantially the same as the outer diameter dimension of the lid member 38, and the inner diameter dimension of the valve member 92 is radially outside the second small hole 68 in the through hole 64 of the lid member 38. It is made larger than the diameter dimension of the peripheral edge part. Further, a notch-shaped communication window 94 is formed on the outer peripheral edge of the valve member 92. Further, a plurality (three in this embodiment) of locking holes 96 are provided in the middle portion in the radial direction of the valve member 92 so as to be spaced apart in the circumferential direction.

弁部材92の内周縁部における周上の一箇所には、弁板部98が一体形成されている。弁板部98は、略平板形状を有しており、弁部材92の内周縁部から弁部材92の内側の中央に向かって突出している。弁板部98の突出方向(図2中、右)の先端側における一方(図1,3中、上)の面には、弁板部98から軸方向の外方に向かって先細り状に延びるマス部100が突設されている。また、弁板部98におけるマス部100と反対側の面には、当接ゴム層102が被着形成されている。当接ゴム層102は、全体に亘って略一定の厚さ寸法で広がるゴム材とされている。本実施形態では、マス部100がゴム材からなり、マス部100と当接ゴム層102が、弁板部98に貫設された孔を通じて、相互に一体加硫成形されている。   A valve plate 98 is integrally formed at one place on the circumference of the inner peripheral edge of the valve member 92. The valve plate portion 98 has a substantially flat plate shape and protrudes from the inner peripheral edge portion of the valve member 92 toward the center inside the valve member 92. One (on the top in FIGS. 1 and 3) surface on the front end side in the protruding direction (right in FIG. 2) of the valve plate 98 extends from the valve plate 98 in a tapered manner outward in the axial direction. A mass portion 100 is provided in a protruding manner. A contact rubber layer 102 is formed on the surface of the valve plate 98 opposite to the mass portion 100. The abutting rubber layer 102 is a rubber material that spreads out with a substantially constant thickness throughout. In the present embodiment, the mass portion 100 is made of a rubber material, and the mass portion 100 and the contact rubber layer 102 are integrally vulcanized and molded through a hole penetrating the valve plate portion 98.

また、弁板部94の基端部側(図2中、左)には、軸方向一方の側(図1中、下)から他方の側(図1中、上)に向かって立ち上がるように延びることで、弁部材92に対して傾斜する曲げ部104が一体形成されている。特に図面上に示していないが、弁部材92が仕切部材34に組み付けられていない単品の状態では、弁板部98におけるマス部100や当接ゴム層102を備えた突出方向先端部分が、軸方向他方の側となるマス部102側から軸方向一方の側となる当接ゴム層102側に向かって落とし込むようにして曲げ部104と相対的に延びることで、弁部材92に対して傾斜している。   Further, on the base end side (left in FIG. 2) of the valve plate portion 94, the valve plate 94 rises from one side (down in FIG. 1) toward the other side (up in FIG. 1). By extending, the bent portion 104 inclined with respect to the valve member 92 is integrally formed. Although not specifically shown in the drawing, in the state of a single product in which the valve member 92 is not assembled to the partition member 34, the tip end portion in the protruding direction including the mass portion 100 and the contact rubber layer 102 in the valve plate portion 98 is a shaft. By extending relative to the bent portion 104 so as to drop from the mass portion 102 side, which is the other side in the direction, toward the contact rubber layer 102 side, which is the one side in the axial direction, the valve member 92 is inclined. ing.

この弁部材92が仕切部材34における蓋部材38の上端部に対して軸方向で重ね合わされて、弁部材92の外周部分が、第二の取付金具14の段部20と蓋部材38の外周部分との軸方向間に挟圧支持せしめられている。また、弁部材92の各係止用孔96には、仕切部材本体36の各係止突部60が嵌め込み固定されることで、弁部材92と蓋部材38が周方向で位置決めされつつ相互に組み付けられている。かかる周方向の位置決めによって、弁部材92の内周縁部が、蓋部材38における透孔64と軸方向で投影しない位置にある蓋部材38の外周部分に重ね合わされて、蓋部材38の透孔64と弁部材92の内側を通じて、受圧室76と収容領域74の連通状態が保持されている。また、弁部材92の連通窓94と蓋部材38の連通窓70が軸方向に重ね合わされて、オリフィス通路80の一方の端部が、それら仕切部材本体36、蓋部材38および弁部材92の各連通窓56,70,94を通じて、受圧室76に接続されている。   The valve member 92 is overlapped with the upper end portion of the lid member 38 in the partition member 34 in the axial direction, and the outer peripheral portion of the valve member 92 is the outer peripheral portion of the step portion 20 of the second mounting bracket 14 and the lid member 38. And is supported between the axial directions. In addition, the locking projections 60 of the partition member main body 36 are fitted and fixed in the locking holes 96 of the valve member 92, so that the valve member 92 and the lid member 38 are positioned in the circumferential direction. It is assembled. By such positioning in the circumferential direction, the inner peripheral edge portion of the valve member 92 is superimposed on the outer peripheral portion of the lid member 38 at a position not projected in the axial direction with the through hole 64 in the lid member 38, and the through hole 64 of the lid member 38. The pressure receiving chamber 76 and the accommodation region 74 are kept in communication with each other through the inside of the valve member 92. Further, the communication window 94 of the valve member 92 and the communication window 70 of the lid member 38 are overlapped in the axial direction, and one end portion of the orifice passage 80 is connected to each of the partition member main body 36, the lid member 38, and the valve member 92. It is connected to the pressure receiving chamber 76 through the communication windows 56, 70 and 94.

さらに、弁部材92の弁板部98が、当接ゴム層102を介して蓋部材38の連通孔62の周りに軸方向で重ね合わされて、弁部材92が蓋部材38の外周部分に密接状態で固定されることに伴い、弁部材92の曲げ部104が軸方向一方の側(図1中、下)から他方の側(図1中、上)に向かって一層立ち上がるように弾性変形すると共に、弁板部98が弁部材92や蓋部材38と略平行に延びるように変位して蓋部材38に重ね合わされる。即ち、弁板部98が、曲げ部104の弾性復元力やマス部100の質量に基づいて下方に向かって付勢せしめられ、当接ゴム層102を介して蓋部材38の連通孔62周りに流体密に重ね合わされることで、連通孔62延いてはリリーフ用孔90の受圧室76側の開口部を閉塞せしめている。これにより、受圧室76のリリーフ用孔90を通じての圧力漏れが生じないようになっている。なお、上述の説明からも明らかなように、リリーフ用孔90の平衡室78側の開口部は、仕切部材本体36の円形底部44の連通孔46を通じて、平衡室78に常時連通せしめられている。また、リリーフ用孔90における受圧室76側の開口端面に重ね合わされてリリーフ用孔90を覆蓋せしめる当接部材が、蓋部材38や弁部材92を含んで構成されている。   Further, the valve plate portion 98 of the valve member 92 is overlapped in the axial direction around the communication hole 62 of the lid member 38 via the contact rubber layer 102, so that the valve member 92 is in close contact with the outer peripheral portion of the lid member 38. In addition, the bent portion 104 of the valve member 92 is elastically deformed so as to rise further from one axial side (lower in FIG. 1) to the other side (upper in FIG. 1). The valve plate portion 98 is displaced so as to extend substantially parallel to the valve member 92 and the lid member 38 and is superimposed on the lid member 38. That is, the valve plate portion 98 is urged downward based on the elastic restoring force of the bent portion 104 and the mass of the mass portion 100, and around the communication hole 62 of the lid member 38 via the contact rubber layer 102. By overlapping fluid tightly, the communication hole 62 and the opening on the pressure receiving chamber 76 side of the relief hole 90 are closed. Thereby, pressure leakage through the relief hole 90 of the pressure receiving chamber 76 does not occur. As is clear from the above description, the opening of the relief hole 90 on the equilibrium chamber 78 side is always in communication with the equilibrium chamber 78 through the communication hole 46 of the circular bottom 44 of the partition member body 36. . The contact member that overlaps the opening end surface of the relief hole 90 on the pressure receiving chamber 76 side and covers the relief hole 90 includes the lid member 38 and the valve member 92.

特に本実施形態では、第一の取付金具12と第二の取付金具14の間に通常の大きさの振動乃至は荷重が入力された状態下、弁板部98の当接ゴム層102が蓋部材38に当接されて、リリーフ用孔90の受圧室76側の開口部の閉塞状態が維持されるように、曲げ部104や弁板部98を備えた弁部材92のばね特性やマス部100の質量が設定されている。   In particular, in this embodiment, the contact rubber layer 102 of the valve plate portion 98 is covered with a normal magnitude of vibration or load input between the first mounting bracket 12 and the second mounting bracket 14. The spring characteristics and mass portions of the valve member 92 having the bent portion 104 and the valve plate portion 98 so that the closed state of the opening portion of the relief hole 90 on the pressure receiving chamber 76 side is maintained in contact with the member 38. A mass of 100 is set.

一方、第一の取付金具12と第二の取付金具14の間に過大な振動乃至は荷重が入力されて、問題となる大きな負圧が受圧室76に発生する状態では、当接ゴム層102およびマス部100を備えた弁板部98や曲げ部104に負圧作用が及ぼされて、曲げ部104が軸方向一方の平衡室78側から他方の受圧室76側に向かってより一層大きく立ち上がるように弾性変形することに伴い、弁板部98が受圧室76側に向かって変位して、当接ゴム層102が蓋部材38から離隔せしめられるように、弁部材92のばね特性やマス部100の質量が設定されている。当接ゴム層102が蓋部材38から離隔せしめられて、リリーフ用孔90の受圧室76側の開口部が受圧室76に対して開口せしめられると、リリーフ用孔90が受圧室76及び平衡室78に対して連通せしめられた状態となり、受圧室76と平衡室78が、蓋部材38の連通孔62やリリーフ用孔90、円形底部44の連通孔46を通じて短絡せしめられる。   On the other hand, when excessive vibration or load is input between the first mounting bracket 12 and the second mounting bracket 14 and a large negative pressure in question is generated in the pressure receiving chamber 76, the contact rubber layer 102. In addition, a negative pressure action is exerted on the valve plate portion 98 and the bent portion 104 including the mass portion 100, and the bent portion 104 rises further from the one equilibrium chamber 78 side toward the other pressure receiving chamber 76 side. In accordance with the elastic deformation, the valve plate portion 98 is displaced toward the pressure receiving chamber 76 side, so that the contact rubber layer 102 is separated from the lid member 38. A mass of 100 is set. When the contact rubber layer 102 is separated from the lid member 38 and the opening on the pressure receiving chamber 76 side of the relief hole 90 is opened with respect to the pressure receiving chamber 76, the relief hole 90 becomes the pressure receiving chamber 76 and the equilibrium chamber. The pressure receiving chamber 76 and the equilibrium chamber 78 are short-circuited through the communication hole 62 of the lid member 38, the relief hole 90, and the communication hole 46 of the circular bottom 44.

そこにおいて、ゴム弾性膜82において周縁突部86と平板状部84との接続部分となる境界部分には、隅部肉付部としてのハンチ状部106が一体形成されている。即ち、本実施形態では、周縁突部86と平板状部84が互いに略直交する接続部分において、接続部分から軸方向外方(図1,5中、上下)に延びる周縁突部86の径方向内周面と、接続部分から軸直角方向内方(図1,5中、左右)に延びる平板状部84の径方向外周部分の端面に沿って延びるようにして、ハンチ状部106が形成されている。   In the rubber elastic film 82, a haunch-like portion 106 as a corner portion is integrally formed at a boundary portion that is a connecting portion between the peripheral protrusion 86 and the flat plate-like portion 84. That is, in this embodiment, the radial direction of the peripheral protrusion 86 that extends axially outward (up and down in FIGS. 1 and 5) from the connection portion at the connection portion where the peripheral protrusion 86 and the flat plate portion 84 are substantially orthogonal to each other. A haunch-like portion 106 is formed so as to extend along the inner peripheral surface and the end surface of the radially outer peripheral portion of the flat plate-like portion 84 extending in the direction perpendicular to the axis (left and right in FIGS. 1 and 5) from the connecting portion. ing.

かかるハンチ状部106は、周縁突部86と平板状部84の境界部分の周方向に略一定の幅寸法で延びる略平面視円弧形状乃至は矩形状を呈している。また、ハンチ状部106の径方向外方の周縁部が、周縁突部86の径方向内方の周壁部に径方向で重ね合わされるように一体形成されている一方、ハンチ状部106の径方向内方の周縁部が、平板状部84において周縁突部86と接続される外周縁部よりも径方向内方の外周部分に重ね合わされるようにして一体形成されている。そして、ハンチ状部106の軸方向に延びる高さ寸法が、周縁突部86と重ね合わされる径方向外周面から平板状部84の径方向外周側の端面と重ね合わされる径方向内周面に向かって次第に小さくされている。これにより、ゴム弾性膜82と一体形成されるハンチ状部106の軸方向断面が、軸直角方向外方から内方に向かって高さ寸法が小さくなる三角状を呈していると共に、ハンチ状部106の軸方向外方の先端部分と軸直角方向内方の先端部分の間を傾斜して延びる表面が、軸方向断面で直線的に延びる傾斜面とされている。   The hunch-like portion 106 has a substantially planar arc shape or a rectangular shape extending with a substantially constant width dimension in the circumferential direction of the boundary portion between the peripheral protrusion 86 and the flat plate-like portion 84. In addition, the radially outer peripheral edge portion of the haunch-like portion 106 is integrally formed so as to overlap with the radially inner peripheral wall portion of the peripheral protrusion 86 in the radial direction. The circumferential inner part in the direction is integrally formed so as to overlap the outer peripheral part radially inward of the outer peripheral part connected to the peripheral protrusion 86 in the flat plate-like part 84. The height dimension extending in the axial direction of the haunch-like portion 106 is changed from the radial outer peripheral surface overlapped with the peripheral protrusion 86 to the radially inner peripheral surface overlapped with the end surface on the radial outer peripheral side of the flat plate-like portion 84. It is gradually becoming smaller. As a result, the axial cross section of the haunch-like portion 106 integrally formed with the rubber elastic film 82 has a triangular shape whose height decreases from the outside in the direction perpendicular to the axis to the inside, and the haunch-like portion. A surface extending in an inclined manner between the axially outer tip portion and the axially perpendicular inner tip portion of 106 is an inclined surface extending linearly in the axial section.

特に本実施形態では、ハンチ状部106の軸方向の最大寸法となる周縁突部86と重ね合わされる径方向外周面の軸方向寸法が、周縁突部86の軸方向寸法と略同じとされている一方、ハンチ状部106の軸方向の最小寸法となる平板状部84と重ね合わされる径方向内周面の軸方向寸法が略ゼロとされている。また、ハンチ状部106の周縁突部86に沿って軸方向に延びる周壁部の軸方向寸法:yと、ハンチ状部106の平板状部84に沿って軸直角方向に延びる端部の軸直角方向寸法:xが略同じとされて、y/x≒1とされている。これにより、ハンチ状部106の軸方向外方の先端部分と軸直角方向内方の先端部分の間を傾斜して延びる壁部の傾斜方向の寸法が、軸方向寸法:yや軸直角方向寸法:xの略√2倍とされている。   In particular, in the present embodiment, the axial dimension of the radially outer peripheral surface overlapped with the peripheral protrusion 86 which is the maximum axial dimension of the haunch-like portion 106 is substantially the same as the axial dimension of the peripheral protrusion 86. On the other hand, the axial dimension of the radially inner circumferential surface that is overlapped with the flat plate-like portion 84 that is the minimum dimension in the axial direction of the haunch-like portion 106 is substantially zero. Also, the axial dimension y of the peripheral wall portion extending in the axial direction along the peripheral protrusion 86 of the haunch-like portion 106 and the axis perpendicular to the end portion extending in the axis-perpendicular direction along the flat plate portion 84 of the haunch-like portion 106. Directional dimension: x is substantially the same, and y / x≈1. As a result, the dimension in the inclined direction of the wall portion extending in an inclined manner between the axially outer tip portion of the hunch-like portion 106 and the axially perpendicular inner tip portion is the axial dimension: y or the axially perpendicular dimension. : X is approximately √2 times.

また、ハンチ状部106の軸直角方向寸法:xは、2mm以上とされると共に、ゴム弾性膜82の半径寸法:rの1/3以下とされることが望ましい。蓋し、ハンチ状部106の軸直角方向寸法:xが、2mmよりも小さいと、目的とする平板状部84と周縁突部86の接続部分における剛性向上効果が得られ難くなる一方、ゴム弾性膜82の半径寸法:rの1/3よりも大きくなると、平板状部84の変形特性延いては防振性能に影響の出るおそれがあると考えられるからである。   In addition, it is desirable that the dimension perpendicular to the axis of the hunch-like portion 106: x is 2 mm or more and the radius dimension of the rubber elastic film 82 is 1/3 or less of r. If the dimension of the hunch-like portion 106 in the direction perpendicular to the axis: x is smaller than 2 mm, it is difficult to obtain the effect of improving the rigidity at the connection portion between the target flat-plate portion 84 and the peripheral protrusion 86, while rubber elasticity This is because when the radius dimension of the film 82 is larger than 1/3 of r, it is considered that the deformation characteristics of the flat plate-like portion 84 and the vibration-proof performance may be affected.

このようなハンチ状部106が、ゴム弾性膜82における平板状部84と周縁突部86の境界部分の周上で、等間隔に8つ形成されている。また、特に、平板状部84と周縁突部86の境界部分の周上において、ハンチ状部106と、周方向で隣り合う各一対のハンチ状部106,106の間のハンチ状部106が形成されていない部分とが、ゴム弾性膜82の周方向で略等分の長さ寸法をもって形成されている。   Eight such haunch-like portions 106 are formed at equal intervals on the periphery of the boundary portion between the flat plate-like portion 84 and the peripheral protrusion 86 in the rubber elastic film 82. In particular, on the periphery of the boundary portion between the flat plate-like portion 84 and the peripheral protrusion 86, the haunch-like portion 106 and the haunch-like portion 106 between each pair of the haunch-like portions 106, 106 adjacent in the circumferential direction are formed. The portion that is not formed is formed with a substantially equal length in the circumferential direction of the rubber elastic film 82.

さらに、本実施形態では、ゴム弾性膜82の厚さ方向一方(図1,5中、上)の面に形成されたハンチ状部106と厚さ方向で対向位置せしめられるようにして、ゴム弾性膜82の厚さ方向他方(図1,5中、下)の面においてもハンチ状部106が形成されている。即ち、ハンチ状部106が、ゴム弾性膜82の両面で同じ位置に形成されている。特に本実施形態に係るゴム弾性膜82の両面併せて16のハンチ状部106には、全て形状や大きさ等の規格が同一のものが採用されている。   Furthermore, in the present embodiment, the rubber elastic film 82 is made to be opposed to the haunch-like portion 106 formed on one surface in the thickness direction (upper side in FIGS. 1 and 5) in the thickness direction so that the rubber elasticity A haunch-like portion 106 is also formed on the other surface in the thickness direction of the film 82 (lower side in FIGS. 1 and 5). That is, the haunch-like portion 106 is formed at the same position on both sides of the rubber elastic film 82. In particular, all the 16 haunch-like portions 106 of the rubber elastic film 82 according to the present embodiment have the same standard such as shape and size.

上述の如き構造とされた自動車用エンジンマウント10においては、走行時に問題となるエンジンシェイク等の低周波数域の振動が入力されると、受圧室76に比較的に大きな圧力変動が生ぜしめられる。この圧力は大きいため、微振幅にチューニングされたゴム弾性膜82では、受圧室76の圧力を実質的に吸収し得ない。また、特に受圧室76において問題となる負圧が発生しない状態では、弁板部98が蓋部材38の連通孔62周りに流体密に重ね合わされて、リリーフ用孔90が閉塞された状態が保持されている。従って、ゴム弾性膜82の弾性変形による受圧室76の圧力変動の吸収やリリーフ用孔90を通じての受圧室76の圧力漏れが抑えられていることから、受圧室76と平衡室78の間に有効な圧力差が生ぜしめられて、オリフィス通路80を通じての流体の流動量が充分に確保される。それ故、オリフィス通路80を通じての流体の共振作用等の流動作用に基づいて、エンジンシェイク等の低周波数域の振動に対して有効な防振効果(高減衰効果)が発揮されるのである。   In the automobile engine mount 10 having the above-described structure, a relatively large pressure fluctuation is generated in the pressure receiving chamber 76 when vibration in a low frequency region such as an engine shake which is a problem during traveling is input. Since this pressure is large, the rubber elastic film 82 tuned to a small amplitude cannot substantially absorb the pressure in the pressure receiving chamber 76. Further, particularly in a state where no negative pressure is generated in the pressure receiving chamber 76, the valve plate portion 98 is fluid-tightly overlapped around the communication hole 62 of the lid member 38, and the state where the relief hole 90 is closed is maintained. Has been. Accordingly, absorption of pressure fluctuations in the pressure receiving chamber 76 due to elastic deformation of the rubber elastic film 82 and pressure leakage of the pressure receiving chamber 76 through the relief hole 90 are suppressed, and therefore effective between the pressure receiving chamber 76 and the equilibrium chamber 78. As a result, a sufficient pressure difference is generated, and a sufficient amount of fluid flows through the orifice passage 80. Therefore, based on the fluid action such as the resonance action of the fluid through the orifice passage 80, an effective anti-vibration effect (high damping effect) is exhibited against vibrations in a low frequency region such as an engine shake.

また、停車時に問題となるアイドリング振動や走行時に問題となる低速こもり音等の中周波数域の振動の入力では、受圧室76に対して小さな振幅の圧力変動が惹起されることとなる。その際、当該振動の周波数域がオリフィス通路80のチューニング周波数よりも高いことから、オリフィス通路80が、反共振的な作用による流体流通抵抗の増加に起因して、実質的に閉塞状態となる。そこで、当該中周波数域にチューニングされたゴム弾性膜82における平板状部84の弾性変形に基づいて、受圧室76の圧力変動が吸収されることにより、オリフィス通路80の実質的な閉塞化に起因する著しい高動ばね化が回避されることとなる。それ故、中周波数域の振動に対する良好な防振効果(低動ばね特性に基づく振動絶縁効果)が発揮されるのである。   In addition, when an idling vibration that is a problem when the vehicle is stopped or a vibration in a medium frequency range such as a low-speed booming sound that is a problem when traveling is performed, a pressure fluctuation with a small amplitude is caused in the pressure receiving chamber 76. At that time, since the frequency range of the vibration is higher than the tuning frequency of the orifice passage 80, the orifice passage 80 is substantially closed due to an increase in fluid flow resistance due to an anti-resonant action. Therefore, the pressure variation in the pressure receiving chamber 76 is absorbed based on the elastic deformation of the flat plate portion 84 in the rubber elastic film 82 tuned to the middle frequency range, resulting in substantial obstruction of the orifice passage 80. Therefore, the remarkably high dynamic spring is avoided. Therefore, a good anti-vibration effect (vibration insulation effect based on the low dynamic spring characteristics) against vibration in the middle frequency range is exhibited.

なお、ゴム弾性膜82の弾性変形により受圧室76の圧力変動を吸収せしめる形態では、当該圧力が極めて微小とされていることから、受圧室76の負圧作用によって弁板部98が蓋部材38から離隔変位する程に大きな負圧が、受圧室76において発生し難くなっている。これにより、リリーフ用孔90の受圧室76側の開口部が弁板部98で閉塞せしめられた状態が維持されて、ゴム弾性膜82の平板状部84の変形による変位に基づいて、目的とする液圧吸収効果が安定して得られる。   In the configuration in which the pressure fluctuation of the pressure receiving chamber 76 is absorbed by the elastic deformation of the rubber elastic film 82, the pressure is extremely small. Therefore, the valve plate 98 is covered with the lid member 38 by the negative pressure action of the pressure receiving chamber 76. Thus, a negative pressure that is large enough to be displaced away from the pressure chamber hardly occurs in the pressure receiving chamber 76. Thus, the state in which the opening of the relief hole 90 on the pressure receiving chamber 76 side is closed by the valve plate portion 98 is maintained, and based on the displacement caused by the deformation of the flat plate portion 84 of the rubber elastic film 82, The hydraulic pressure absorption effect is stably obtained.

また、自動車が段差を乗り越えたり凹凸の大きな路面等を走行して、第一の取付金具12と第二の取付金具14の間に衝撃的な荷重が入力されると、本体ゴム弾性体16が急激に乃至は過大に弾性変形することに伴い、受圧室76において、問題となる異音の発生要因のキャビテーション気泡を生ぜしめる程に過大な負圧が発生する場合がある。   Further, when an automobile rides over a step or travels on a road surface with large unevenness and an impact load is input between the first mounting bracket 12 and the second mounting bracket 14, the main rubber elastic body 16 is moved. Abruptly or excessively elastically deforming may cause excessive negative pressure in the pressure receiving chamber 76 to generate cavitation bubbles that are a cause of abnormal noise.

ここで、本実施形態の自動車用エンジンマウント10では、このキャビテーション気泡が発生する前の大きな負圧の段階で、弁板部98に負圧が及ぼされると、弁部材92のばね特性やマス部100の質量の設定に基づき、弁板部98が蓋部材38から離隔して、リリーフ用孔90の閉塞状態が解除される。その結果、受圧室76と平衡室78がリリーフ用孔90を通じて相互に連通せしめられて、受圧室76の圧力と平衡室78の圧力が平衡状態に向かい、受圧室76の過負圧状態が解消されることから、キャビテーション気泡の発生が有利に抑えられて、問題となる異音や振動等が防止されるのである。   Here, in the automotive engine mount 10 of the present embodiment, when a negative pressure is applied to the valve plate portion 98 at the stage of a large negative pressure before the cavitation bubbles are generated, the spring characteristics and mass portions of the valve member 92 are obtained. Based on the mass setting of 100, the valve plate 98 is separated from the lid member 38, and the closed state of the relief hole 90 is released. As a result, the pressure receiving chamber 76 and the equilibrium chamber 78 are communicated with each other through the relief hole 90, the pressure in the pressure receiving chamber 76 and the pressure in the equilibrium chamber 78 are brought into an equilibrium state, and the overnegative pressure state of the pressure receiving chamber 76 is eliminated. As a result, the generation of cavitation bubbles is advantageously suppressed, and problematic abnormal noises and vibrations are prevented.

そこにおいて、本構造の自動車用エンジンマウント10においては、ハンチ状部106が、ゴム弾性膜82における周縁突部86と平板状部84の境界部分に形成されていることにより、境界部分の厚肉化に基づいて剛性の向上が図られる。これにより、周縁突部86の仕切部材34による挟圧保持力が増大されることから、比較的に大きな振動荷重が入力されてゴム弾性膜82の平板状部84が弾性変形する場合にも、かかる変形に伴い周縁突部86が仕切部材34に対して傾動等の変位することが抑えられる。それによって、周縁突部86の変位に起因するスティックスリップ音などの異音が抑制される。   Therefore, in the engine mount 10 for automobiles of this structure, the haunch-like portion 106 is formed at the boundary portion between the peripheral projection 86 and the flat plate-like portion 84 in the rubber elastic film 82, so that the thick portion of the boundary portion is formed. The rigidity is improved based on the conversion. As a result, since the holding force by the partition member 34 of the peripheral protrusion 86 is increased, even when a relatively large vibration load is input and the flat plate portion 84 of the rubber elastic film 82 is elastically deformed, Along with such deformation, the peripheral protrusion 86 is restrained from being displaced such as tilting with respect to the partition member 34. Thereby, abnormal noise such as stick-slip noise caused by the displacement of the peripheral protrusion 86 is suppressed.

特に本実施形態では、ハンチ状部106が、ゴム弾性膜82の周上で等間隔に3つ以上形成されていることに加えて、ゴム弾性膜82の両面で同じ位置に形成されている。それ故、平板状部84と周縁突部86の接続部分が一層効果的に厚肉化されて、ゴム弾性膜82に対してこじり方向や捻り方向等の入力が生ぜしめられた場合にも周縁突部86の変位が抑えられる程に、周縁突部86の仕切部材34に対する支持力が向上されることから、上述のスティックスリップ音の低減効果が一層効果的に得られる。   In particular, in the present embodiment, in addition to the three or more hunched portions 106 formed at equal intervals on the circumference of the rubber elastic film 82, they are formed at the same position on both surfaces of the rubber elastic film 82. Therefore, even when the connection portion between the flat plate portion 84 and the peripheral protrusion 86 is thickened more effectively and the rubber elastic film 82 is input in the twisting direction, the twisting direction, etc. As the displacement of the protrusion 86 is suppressed, the support force of the peripheral protrusion 86 on the partition member 34 is improved, and thus the above-described stick-slip noise reduction effect can be obtained more effectively.

また、ハンチ状部106が、周縁突部86から平板状部84の径方向中央に向かって次第に薄肉となるハンチ形状を呈していることにより、周縁突部86と平板状部84との接続部分を厚肉化せしめることによる剛性向上が有効に図られつつ、ハンチ状部106において平板状部84の弾性変形に伴う大応力の発生が抑えられる。それ故、ハンチ状部106の耐久性が向上されて、スティックスリップ音の防止効果が比較的に長期に亘って安定して得られるのである。   Further, since the haunch-like portion 106 has a haunch shape that gradually becomes thinner from the peripheral protrusion 86 toward the radial center of the flat plate portion 84, a connection portion between the peripheral protrusion 86 and the flat plate portion 84. It is possible to suppress the generation of large stress accompanying elastic deformation of the flat plate portion 84 in the hunched portion 106 while effectively improving the rigidity by increasing the thickness of the flat plate portion 84. Therefore, the durability of the haunch-like portion 106 is improved, and the effect of preventing stick-slip noise can be stably obtained over a relatively long period of time.

さらに、かかるハンチ状部106がゴム弾性膜82の周上で分断状態で複数形成されていることから、ゴム弾性膜82におけるハンチ状部106が形成されていない周上部分では、ゴム弾性膜82の有効自由長が、ハンチ状部106が形成されていない長さに近い長さで、大きく確保される。それ故、ハンチ状部106による周縁突部86の傾動防止効果が、ゴム弾性膜82の液圧吸収機能の大幅な低下を伴うことなく達成されて、所期の防振性能も効果的に発揮され得る。   Furthermore, since a plurality of the hunched portions 106 are formed in a divided state on the circumference of the rubber elastic film 82, the rubber elastic film 82 is formed in the circumferential upper portion of the rubber elastic film 82 where the hunched portions 106 are not formed. Is effectively secured with a length close to the length where the haunch-like portion 106 is not formed. Therefore, the anti-tilt effect of the peripheral protrusion 86 by the haunch-like portion 106 is achieved without significantly reducing the hydraulic pressure absorbing function of the rubber elastic film 82, and the desired anti-vibration performance is also effectively exhibited. Can be done.

また、本実施形態では、ゴム弾性膜82の径方向中央部分と外周縁部において、それぞれ軸方向両側に略同じ高さで延びる円筒状乃至は環状の中央突部88と周縁突部86が形成されていることに加えて、複数のハンチ状部106が同一規格とされて、ゴム弾性膜82の周上で等間隔に且つ両面で同じ位置に形成されている。これにより、ゴム弾性膜82が、両面で対称形状とされていると共に、周方向で特別な方向性を有さない形態とされている。その結果、ゴム弾性膜82の仕切部材34に対する組み付けが簡単となって、製造効率の向上が図られ得る。   In the present embodiment, a cylindrical or annular central protrusion 88 and a peripheral protrusion 86 extending at substantially the same height on both sides in the axial direction are formed at the radially central portion and the outer peripheral edge of the rubber elastic film 82. In addition to this, the plurality of haunch-like portions 106 are set to the same standard and are formed at equal intervals on the circumference of the rubber elastic film 82 and at the same position on both sides. As a result, the rubber elastic film 82 has a symmetrical shape on both sides, and has no special directionality in the circumferential direction. As a result, the assembly of the rubber elastic film 82 to the partition member 34 is simplified, and the production efficiency can be improved.

さらに、本実施形態では、ゴム弾性膜82の中央部分の変形が、中央突部88の仕切部材34に対する挟圧配置により制限されていることから、ゴム弾性膜82の中央部分の仕切部材34への打ち当たりに起因する打音が有効に抑えられる。しかも、ゴム弾性膜82における中央突部88と周縁突部86の変形が共に拘束されることに基づき、ゴム弾性膜82の径方向中間部分における平板状部84が収容領域4内に安定して支持せしめられることから、受圧室76の液圧吸収効果が効率良く得られて、目的とする防振効果が一層安定して得られる。   Further, in the present embodiment, the deformation of the central portion of the rubber elastic film 82 is limited by the clamping arrangement of the central protrusion 88 with respect to the partition member 34, so that the partition member 34 at the central portion of the rubber elastic film 82 is moved. The hitting sound resulting from the hit of the hit is effectively suppressed. In addition, the deformation of the central protrusion 88 and the peripheral protrusion 86 in the rubber elastic film 82 is constrained together, so that the flat plate portion 84 in the intermediate portion in the radial direction of the rubber elastic film 82 is stably in the accommodation region 4. Since it is supported, the hydraulic pressure absorption effect of the pressure receiving chamber 76 can be obtained efficiently, and the intended vibration isolation effect can be obtained more stably.

更にまた、本実施形態では、ゴム弾性膜82における中央突部88の内側のスペースを利用してリリーフ用孔90を形成したことにより、仕切部材34における受圧室76と平衡室78の短絡機構の小スペース化が図られて、マウント10のコンパクト化が達成され得る。   Furthermore, in the present embodiment, the relief hole 90 is formed using the space inside the central protrusion 88 in the rubber elastic film 82, so that the short-circuit mechanism of the pressure receiving chamber 76 and the equilibrium chamber 78 in the partition member 34. The space can be reduced, and the mount 10 can be made compact.

また、本実施形態では、ゴム弾性膜82の中央部分の弾性変形を制限する当接部材が、蓋部材38や仕切部材本体36の円形底部44を含んで構成されていると共に、リリーフ用孔90における受圧室76側の開口端面に重ね合わされてリリーフ用孔90を覆蓋せしめる当接部材が、蓋部材38や弁部材92を含んで構成されている。これら仕切部材本体36や蓋部材38は、受圧室76と平衡室78を仕切る仕切部材34の一部を構成している。即ち、それら当接部材が仕切部材34を利用して構成されていることから、当接部材を新たに設ける必要がなくなり、部品点数の増加や構造の複雑化が防止されて、コンパクト化や低コスト化が有効に図られ得る。   In the present embodiment, the contact member that restricts the elastic deformation of the central portion of the rubber elastic film 82 includes the lid member 38 and the circular bottom 44 of the partition member main body 36, and the relief hole 90. The abutting member that is superimposed on the opening end surface on the pressure receiving chamber 76 side and covers the relief hole 90 includes the lid member 38 and the valve member 92. The partition member main body 36 and the lid member 38 constitute a part of the partition member 34 that partitions the pressure receiving chamber 76 and the equilibrium chamber 78. That is, since these abutting members are configured using the partition member 34, it is not necessary to newly provide the abutting members, and an increase in the number of parts and a complicated structure can be prevented, thereby reducing the size and the size. Cost reduction can be effectively achieved.

以上、本発明の実施形態について詳述してきたが、かかる実施形態における具体的な記載によって、本発明は、何等限定されるものでなく、当業者の知識に基づいて種々なる変更、修正、改良等を加えた態様で実施可能であり、また、そのような実施態様が、本発明の趣旨を逸脱しない限り、何れも、本発明の範囲内に含まれるものであることは、言うまでもない。以下の説明において、前記実施形態と実質的に同一の構造とされた部材および部位については、前記実施形態と同一の符号を付することにより、それらの詳細な説明を省略する。   The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above. However, the present invention is not limited to the specific descriptions in the embodiments, and various changes, modifications, and improvements based on the knowledge of those skilled in the art. Needless to say, any of these embodiments can be included in the scope of the present invention without departing from the spirit of the present invention. In the following description, members and parts having substantially the same structure as those of the above-described embodiment will be denoted by the same reference numerals as those of the above-described embodiment, and detailed description thereof will be omitted.

例えば、仕切部材34やゴム弾性膜82を構成する周縁突部や平板状部、中央突部、ハンチ状部、弁部材等における形状や大きさ、構造、配置、数等の形態は例示の如きものに限定されない。   For example, the shape, size, structure, arrangement, number, etc. of the peripheral protrusions, flat plate-like parts, central protrusions, hunch-like parts, valve members, etc. constituting the partition member 34 and the rubber elastic film 82 are as illustrated. It is not limited to kimono.

具体的に、ハンチ状部106の表面が、軸方向断面で直線的に延びる傾斜面とされていたが、凹状又は凸状に湾曲した傾斜面であっても良く、本発明に係るハンチ状部には、ゴム弾性膜82の周縁突部86と平板状部84の接続部分を補強せしめる種々の形状の三角断面構造が採用され得る。   Specifically, although the surface of the haunch-like portion 106 is an inclined surface extending linearly in the axial cross section, it may be an inclined surface curved in a concave shape or a convex shape, and the haunch-like portion according to the present invention. Various triangular cross-sectional structures that reinforce the connecting portion between the peripheral protrusion 86 of the rubber elastic film 82 and the flat plate-like portion 84 can be adopted.

さらに、前記実施形態では、複数のハンチ状部106が形状や大きさの同じ規格とされて、ゴム弾性膜82の周上で等間隔に且つ両面で同じ位置に形成されていたが、本発明はこれに限定されるものでなく、要求される製作性や防振特性、剛性等に応じて、例えば複数のハンチ状部の形状や大きさ等をそれぞれ異ならせたり、ゴム弾性膜の周上で不等間隔に設けたり、ゴム弾性膜の両面で重ならない位置に形成しても良いことは勿論である。具体的に、図7にも示されているように、ゴム弾性膜108の一方(図7中、表側)の面に等間隔に形成された複数のハンチ状部106aの周方向間と厚さ方向で重なり合うゴム弾性膜108の他方(図7中、裏側)の面にハンチ状部106bを形成することによって、ハンチ状部106a,106bをゴム弾性膜108の両面で異なる位置に形成すると共に、ゴム弾性膜108の一方の面と他方の面で、それぞれ等間隔に形成することも可能である。   Furthermore, in the above-described embodiment, the plurality of hunched portions 106 have the same shape and size, and are formed at equal intervals on the circumference of the rubber elastic film 82 and at the same position on both sides. Is not limited to this, and depending on the required manufacturability, anti-vibration characteristics, rigidity, etc., for example, the shape and size of the plurality of hunched portions may be different, or the circumference of the rubber elastic membrane may be Of course, they may be provided at unequal intervals or at positions where they do not overlap on both sides of the rubber elastic film. Specifically, as shown also in FIG. 7, the circumferential direction and thickness of a plurality of hunch-like portions 106a formed at equal intervals on one surface (front side in FIG. 7) of the rubber elastic film 108 By forming the haunch-like portion 106b on the other surface (the back side in FIG. 7) of the rubber elastic membrane 108 that overlaps in the direction, the haunch-like portions 106a and 106b are formed at different positions on both sides of the rubber elastic membrane 108, and It is also possible to form the rubber elastic film 108 at equal intervals on one surface and the other surface.

また、ゴム弾性膜82の中央突部88は要求される防振特性に応じて設けられるものであり、必須の構成要件でない。また、例えば、ゴム弾性膜を挟んだ仕切部材の軸方向両側の少なくとも一方において収容領域に向かって突起を突設せしめて、突起を介してゴム弾性膜の適当な部分を軸方向で挟圧保持せしめることにより、挟圧部分の変形を拘束することも可能である。   Further, the central protrusion 88 of the rubber elastic film 82 is provided according to the required vibration isolation characteristics, and is not an essential constituent requirement. In addition, for example, a protrusion is protruded toward the accommodation region on at least one side of the partitioning member sandwiching the rubber elastic film toward the accommodation region, and an appropriate portion of the rubber elastic film is held in the axial direction via the protrusion. It is also possible to constrain the deformation of the clamping portion by caulking.

さらに、リリーフ用孔90や弁部材92等の短絡機構も必須の構成要件でない。即ち、図8にも示されているように、中央部分にリリーフ用孔90や中央突部88が形成されていない円板形状の平板状部110を備えたゴム弾性膜112を、仕切部材34の収容領域74に対して平板状部110の中央部分も弾性変形可能に収容配置すると共に、連通孔46,62が形成されていない蓋部材38および仕切部材本体34の各中央部分の周りの各連通孔48,64を通じて、受圧室76と平衡室78の圧力がゴム弾性膜112に及ぼされるようにしても良い。従って、この場合に、弁部材92を蓋部材38に重ね合わせて配設する必要もない。   Further, the short-circuit mechanism such as the relief hole 90 and the valve member 92 is not an essential component. That is, as shown in FIG. 8, the partition member 34 is provided with a rubber elastic membrane 112 having a disk-shaped flat plate portion 110 in which the relief hole 90 and the central protrusion 88 are not formed in the central portion. The central portion of the flat plate-like portion 110 is also accommodated and arranged so as to be elastically deformable with respect to the accommodating area 74 of the lid member 38 and the partition member body 34 around each central portion of the partition member main body 34 where the communication holes 46 and 62 are not formed. The pressure in the pressure receiving chamber 76 and the equilibrium chamber 78 may be exerted on the rubber elastic membrane 112 through the communication holes 48 and 64. Therefore, in this case, it is not necessary to arrange the valve member 92 so as to overlap the lid member 38.

また、前記実施形態では、弁部材92と蓋部材38が別体形成されていたが、例えば蓋部材を円板形状のばね鋼等を用いて形成し、その中央に刳り貫き状の孔を設けて、孔の内側を切り起こして弁板部を構成することにより、蓋部材と弁部材を一体形成することも可能である。   In the above embodiment, the valve member 92 and the lid member 38 are formed separately. For example, the lid member is formed using disk-shaped spring steel or the like, and a punched hole is provided in the center thereof. Thus, the lid member and the valve member can be integrally formed by cutting and raising the inside of the hole to form the valve plate portion.

また、前記実施形態では、リリーフ用孔90がゴム弾性膜82の径方向中央部分に設けられて、マウント10の略中心軸上に設けられていたが、例えばゴム弾性膜をマウントの中心軸に対して偏倚した位置に配設したり、リリーフ用孔をゴム弾性膜の径方向中央部分から外れた位置に形成することによって、リリーフ用孔をマウント中心軸に対して偏倚した位置に設けることも可能である。   In the above-described embodiment, the relief hole 90 is provided at the central portion in the radial direction of the rubber elastic film 82 and provided on the substantially central axis of the mount 10. For example, the rubber elastic film is used as the central axis of the mount. The relief hole may be provided at a position deviated from the center axis of the mount by disposing the relief hole at a position offset from the radial central portion of the rubber elastic membrane. Is possible.

また、前記実施形態に係る自動車用エンジンマウントでは、単一オリフィス通路を設けた構造が採用されていたが、例えばオリフィス通路として、第一のオリフィス通路と、第一のオリフィス通路よりも高周波数域にチューニングされた第二のオリフィス通路とが設けられている構造が、採用されても良い。これにより、例えば、問題となり易い振動が低周波数域と中乃至は高周波数域に存在する場合に、第一のオリフィス通路や第二のオリフィス通路を通じて流動せしめられる各流体の共振周波数を、それぞれ低周波周域と高周波数域にチューニングすることによって、複数の振動に対して防振効果が有効に発揮され得る。   Further, in the automobile engine mount according to the embodiment, the structure provided with the single orifice passage is adopted. For example, as the orifice passage, the first orifice passage and the higher frequency region than the first orifice passage are used. A structure provided with a second orifice passage tuned to the above may be employed. Thus, for example, when vibrations that are likely to cause problems are present in the low-frequency range and the middle to high-frequency range, the resonance frequency of each fluid that flows through the first orifice passage and the second orifice passage is reduced. By tuning to the frequency range and the high frequency range, the vibration isolation effect can be effectively exhibited against a plurality of vibrations.

加えて、前記実施形態では、本発明を自動車用エンジンマウントに適用したものの具体例について説明したが、本発明は、自動車用ボデーマウントやデフマウント、サスペンションメンバマウント等の他、自動車以外の各種振動体の防振装置に対して、何れも、適用可能である。   In addition, in the above-described embodiments, specific examples of applying the present invention to an automobile engine mount have been described. However, the present invention is not limited to an automobile body mount, a differential mount, a suspension member mount, etc. Any of them can be applied to the body vibration isolator.
