Description

本発明は、自動車のサスペンション機構におけるショックアブソーバのピストンロッドを、車体に対して弾性的に結合するためのサスペンションサポートに関するものである。   The present invention relates to a suspension support for elastically coupling a piston rod of a shock absorber in an automobile suspension mechanism to a vehicle body.

従来、自動車のサスペンション機構においては、車輪側から車体側への振動の伝達を抑制するために、ショックアブソーバのピストンロッドの上端部が挿通固定される内側部材と、該内側部材の外周を取り囲み車体側に取り付けられる外側部材と、これら内側部材と外側部材との間に介在する環状の弾性部材とを備えてなるサスペンションサポートが用いられている(下記特許文献1参照)。   2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in an automobile suspension mechanism, in order to suppress transmission of vibration from the wheel side to the vehicle body side, an inner member into which an upper end portion of a piston rod of a shock absorber is inserted and fixed, and an outer periphery of the inner member are surrounded. A suspension support including an outer member attached to the side and an annular elastic member interposed between the inner member and the outer member is used (see Patent Document 1 below).

上記弾性部材としては、一般にゴムが用いられているが、近年、発泡ウレタンなどの発泡樹脂材料の採用が試みられている(下記特許文献2参照)。発泡ウレタンは、その材料特性上、ゴムに比べて、静的バネ定数に対する動的バネ定数の比である動倍率を抑えながら、減衰性を大きくすることができる。そのため、乗り心地性と操縦安定性を両立させる上で有利である。その反面、発泡ウレタンは、加水分解等の使用環境の影響を受けやすく、またコストも高いことから、自動車に採用するに当たっては問題となることがある。

As the elastic member, rubber is generally used, but in recent years, attempts have been made to employ a foamed resin material such as urethane foam (see Patent Document 2 below). Due to the material properties of urethane foam, it is possible to increase damping while suppressing the dynamic magnification, which is the ratio of the dynamic spring constant to the static spring constant, compared to rubber. Therefore, it is advantageous in achieving both ride comfort and handling stability. On the other hand, urethane foam is easily affected by the environment of use such as hydrolysis, and its cost is high, so it may be a problem when it is used in automobiles.
JP 2003-278822 A JP 2003-184937 A

本発明は、上記の点に鑑みてなされたものであり、上記弾性部材として発泡ウレタンではなくゴムを用いながら、発泡ウレタン並みの低動倍率高減衰特性により、乗り心地性と操縦安定性を向上した自動車用サスペンションサポートを提供することを目的とする。   The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and while using rubber instead of urethane foam as the elastic member, it improves ride comfort and handling stability by low dynamic magnification and high damping characteristics comparable to urethane foam. An object is to provide a suspension support for automobiles.

本発明に係る自動車用サスペンションサポートは、自動車のショックアブソーバのピストンロッド上端部が挿通固定される内側部材と、前記内側部材の外周を取り囲み車体側に取り付けられる外側部材と、前記内側部材と前記外側部材との間に介在する環状のゴム製弾性部材とを備えてなる自動車用サスペンションサポートにおいて、前記ピストンロッドの軸方向での変位における静的バネ定数Ks(N/mm)に対する100Hz時の動的バネ定数Kd(N/mm)の比である動倍率Kd/Ksと、15Hz時のロスファクターtanδとの比tanδ/(Kd/Ks)が0.060以上であることを特徴とするものである。   The suspension support for automobiles according to the present invention includes an inner member into which an upper end portion of a piston rod of a shock absorber of an automobile is inserted and fixed, an outer member that surrounds an outer periphery of the inner member and is attached to a vehicle body side, the inner member, and the outer member Dynamic suspension at 100 Hz with respect to a static spring constant Ks (N / mm) in the displacement of the piston rod in the axial direction in an automobile suspension support including an annular rubber elastic member interposed between the piston rod and the member The ratio tan δ / (Kd / Ks) between the dynamic magnification Kd / Ks which is the ratio of the spring constant Kd (N / mm) and the loss factor tan δ at 15 Hz is 0.060 or more. .

このように弾性部材としてゴムを用いたものでありながら、発泡ウレタン並みの低動倍率高減衰特性を持たせたことにより、加水分解やコスト等の問題を伴うことなく、乗り心地性と操縦安定性を向上することができる。従来、弾性部材としてゴムを用いた自動車用サスペンションサポートにおいて、このような低動倍率高減衰特性を持つものは知られておらず、本発明によって初めて提供されるものである。   In this way, rubber is used as an elastic member, but it has the same low dynamic magnification and high damping characteristics as urethane foam, so there is no problem of hydrolysis, cost, etc. Can be improved. Conventionally, there is no known suspension support for automobiles using rubber as an elastic member, which has such a low dynamic magnification and high damping characteristic, and is provided for the first time by the present invention.

このような低動倍率高減衰特性を持たせるための構成としては特に限定されないが、ゴム製弾性部材の内部に前記軸方向の変位によって拡縮される空気室を設け、該空気室を絞り通路により外気に連通して設けることが好ましい。この場合、上記軸方向での変位時に、空気室が拡縮することにより、絞り通路を介して空気が出入りする。この空気の出入りによる位相遅れによって減衰性能を高めることができるので、動倍率を抑えながら減衰性能を高くすることができる。   The configuration for providing such a low dynamic magnification high damping characteristic is not particularly limited, but an air chamber that is expanded and contracted by the axial displacement is provided inside the rubber elastic member, and the air chamber is formed by a throttle passage. It is preferable to provide communication with outside air. In this case, at the time of displacement in the axial direction, the air chamber expands and contracts, so that air enters and exits through the throttle passage. Since the attenuation performance can be enhanced by the phase delay due to the entry and exit of air, the attenuation performance can be enhanced while suppressing the dynamic magnification.

上記構成においては、前記内側部材が、前記ピストンロッドの軸直角方向外方側に張り出すフランジ部を備え、前記外側部材が、前記弾性部材を内包する筒部と、前記筒部の軸方向の両端部において軸直角方向で内向きに形成されて前記弾性部材を軸方向にて挟圧する上側壁部及び下側壁部とを備え、前記弾性部材が、前記フランジ部の上面と前記上側壁部の下面との間で挟圧保持される上側弾性部と、前記フランジ部の下面と前記下側壁部の上面との間で挟圧保持される下側弾性部とを備え、前記上側弾性部と前記下側弾性部の少なくとも一方の弾性部の内部に、前記絞り通路により外気に連通された前記空気室が設けられてもよい。これにより、外側部材に対する内側部材の軸方向での相対変位時に、上側弾性部と下側弾性部の少なくとも一方の弾性部に設けられた空気室が拡縮することにより、絞り通路を介して空気が出入りし、この空気の出入りによる位相遅れによって減衰性能を高めることができる。   In the above configuration, the inner member includes a flange portion projecting outward in the direction perpendicular to the axis of the piston rod, and the outer member includes a cylindrical portion containing the elastic member, and an axial direction of the cylindrical portion. An upper wall portion and a lower wall portion, which are formed inward in a direction perpendicular to the axis at both end portions and sandwich the elastic member in the axial direction, are provided, and the elastic member includes an upper surface of the flange portion and an upper wall portion of the upper wall portion. An upper elastic portion held between the lower surface and a lower elastic portion held between the lower surface of the flange portion and the upper surface of the lower side wall portion, the upper elastic portion and the The air chamber communicated with the outside air by the throttle passage may be provided inside at least one elastic portion of the lower elastic portion. As a result, when the inner member is displaced relative to the outer member in the axial direction, the air chamber provided in at least one elastic portion of the upper elastic portion and the lower elastic portion expands and contracts, so that the air passes through the throttle passage. Attenuation performance can be enhanced by the phase delay due to the entry and exit of the air.

この場合、前記空気室は、前記上側弾性部と前記下側弾性部にそれぞれ独立して設けられていることが好ましい。このように空気室を上側弾性部と下側弾性部の双方に設けることにより、減衰性能を更に高めることができる。この場合に、上側弾性部と下側弾性部の両空気室がつながっていると、一方の空気室が圧縮されたときに他方の空気室に空気が逃げてしまい、絞り通路における空気の出入り量を確保することが難しくなるが、上下の空気室が非連通状態に独立して設けられていることで、それぞれの減衰性能を発揮させることができる。   In this case, it is preferable that the air chamber is provided independently for each of the upper elastic portion and the lower elastic portion. As described above, by providing the air chambers in both the upper elastic portion and the lower elastic portion, the damping performance can be further enhanced. In this case, if both the air chambers of the upper elastic portion and the lower elastic portion are connected, when one air chamber is compressed, air escapes to the other air chamber, and the amount of air flowing in and out of the throttle passage However, since the upper and lower air chambers are independently provided in a non-communication state, each attenuation performance can be exhibited.

また、前記空気室は、前記上側弾性部と前記下側弾性部の少なくとも一方の弾性部において、前記弾性部材の周方向に複数個独立して設けられ、該複数個の空気室の各室について外気に連通させるための前記絞り通路が設けられていることが好ましい。このように空気室を周方向に分離独立して設けることにより、各空気室にて減衰性能を発揮させることができ、例えば、外側部材に対して内側部材がこじれた方向に変位した場合においても、周方向の一部の空気室の拡縮による絞り通路での空気の出入りによって減衰性能を発揮することができる。   In addition, a plurality of the air chambers are provided independently in the circumferential direction of the elastic member in at least one elastic portion of the upper elastic portion and the lower elastic portion, and each of the plurality of air chambers is provided. It is preferable that the throttle passage for communicating with the outside air is provided. Thus, by providing the air chambers in the circumferential direction separately and independently, attenuation performance can be exhibited in each air chamber. For example, even when the inner member is displaced in a direction in which it is twisted with respect to the outer member, Attenuation performance can be exhibited by the entry and exit of air in the throttle passage due to expansion and contraction of a part of the air chamber in the circumferential direction.

さらに、前記空気室が、前記上側弾性部と前記下側弾性部の少なくとも一方の弾性部における前記フランジ部との当接面に凹設された凹部と、前記フランジ部との間で形成され、前記絞り通路が、前記少なくとも一方の弾性部における前記フランジ部との当接面において前記凹部から軸直角方向内方に延びる凹溝と、前記フランジ部との間で形成されてもよい。この場合、空気室と絞り流路を形成しやすく、製造コストを抑えることができる。   Furthermore, the air chamber is formed between a concave portion provided in a contact surface with the flange portion in at least one elastic portion of the upper elastic portion and the lower elastic portion, and the flange portion, The throttle passage may be formed between a concave groove that extends inward in a direction perpendicular to the axis from the concave portion on the contact surface of the at least one elastic portion with the flange portion, and the flange portion. In this case, the air chamber and the throttle channel can be easily formed, and the manufacturing cost can be suppressed.

上記のように、本発明の自動車用サスペンションサポートであると、低動倍率高減衰特性を持つことで、乗り心地性と操縦安定性を向上することができる。   As described above, the suspension support for automobiles of the present invention has a low dynamic magnification and high damping characteristic, so that it is possible to improve ride comfort and handling stability.

このサスペンションサポート10は、軸方向(上下方向)Xでの変位における動倍率Kd/Ksに対するロスファクター(損失係数)tanδの比tanδ/(Kd/Ks)が0.060以上となるよう、低動倍率かつ高減衰に構成されている。この比tanδ/(Kd/Ks)は、高いほど性能上好ましいため、その上限は特に限定されないが、0.150超に設定することはゴム製弾性部材16では困難であることから、現実的な上限は0.150以下である。好ましくは、上記比は0.070〜0.110であり、更に好ましくは0.070〜0.080である。   The suspension support 10 has a low movement so that a ratio tan δ / (Kd / Ks) of a loss factor (loss coefficient) tan δ to a dynamic magnification Kd / Ks in displacement in the axial direction (vertical direction) X is 0.060 or more. It is configured with high magnification and high attenuation. Since this ratio tanδ / (Kd / Ks) is preferably as high as possible, its upper limit is not particularly limited. However, it is difficult for the rubber elastic member 16 to set the upper limit of 0.150, which is realistic. The upper limit is 0.150 or less. Preferably, the ratio is 0.070 to 0.110, more preferably 0.070 to 0.080.

ここで、動倍率Kd/Ksは、静的バネ定数Ks(N/mm)に対する100Hz時の動的バネ定数Kd(N/mm)の比であり、その値は特に限定するものではないが、3.5以下、更には1.5〜3.5であることが好ましい。   Here, the dynamic magnification Kd / Ks is a ratio of the dynamic spring constant Kd (N / mm) at 100 Hz to the static spring constant Ks (N / mm), and the value is not particularly limited. It is preferably 3.5 or less, more preferably 1.5 to 3.5.

動的バネ定数(貯蔵バネ定数)Kdは、サスペンションサポート10に車両搭載時の初期荷重に相当する荷重をかけた状態から、常温にて、JIS K6385に準拠して、動的性質測定試験の非共振方法において、内側部材12に対し、軸方向Xに周波数100Hz、振幅±0.05mmでたわみを加えて荷重−たわみの関係を測定し、この関係を用いて同規格に記載の計算方法により算出される。   The dynamic spring constant (storage spring constant) Kd is a value obtained when the suspension support 10 is not subjected to a dynamic property measurement test in accordance with JIS K6385 at a normal temperature from a state where a load corresponding to the initial load when the vehicle is mounted is applied. In the resonance method, the load-deflection relationship is measured by applying a deflection at a frequency of 100 Hz and an amplitude of ± 0.05 mm to the inner member 12 in the axial direction X, and the calculation method described in the same standard is calculated using this relationship. Is done.

ロスファクターtanδは、減衰性の指標となるものであり、この値が大きいほど減衰性に優れる。ロスファクターtanδは、サスペンションサポート10に車両搭載時の初期荷重に相当する荷重をかけた状態から、常温にて、JIS K6385に準拠して、動的性質測定試験の非共振方法において、内側部材12に対し、軸方向Xに周波数15Hz、振幅±2.0mmでたわみを加えて荷重−たわみの関係を測定し、この関係を用いて同規格に記載の計算方法により算出される。ロスファクターtanδの値は特に限定するものではないが、0.10以上、更には0.15〜0.30であることが好ましい。   The loss factor tan δ serves as an index of attenuation. The larger this value, the better the attenuation. The loss factor tan δ is determined in the non-resonant method of the dynamic property measurement test in accordance with JIS K6385 at a normal temperature from a state where a load corresponding to the initial load when the vehicle is mounted on the suspension support 10. On the other hand, a load-deflection relationship is measured by adding a deflection in the axial direction X at a frequency of 15 Hz and an amplitude of ± 2.0 mm, and the calculation method described in the same standard is calculated using this relationship. The value of the loss factor tan δ is not particularly limited, but is preferably 0.10 or more, and more preferably 0.15 to 0.30.

It is provided in communication with. Further, the lower elastic portion 44 is provided with a second air chamber 56 therein, and the second air chamber 56 is provided in communication with the outside air via a second throttle passage 58. The first and second throttle passages 54 and 58 are set to have a small cross-sectional area so that when the first and second air chambers 52 and 56 expand and contract, the air enters and exits with a phase delay with respect to the expansion and contraction. It is a passage with high flow resistance. The cross-sectional area (S) of the throttle passages 54 and 58 is not particularly limited, but is preferably S / V = 0.01 or less with respect to the volume (V) of the air chambers 52 and 56, more preferably S. / V = set within a range of 0.01 to 0.001.

第1空気室52と第2空気室56は、それぞれ独立して、即ち非連通状態に設けられている。また、図3に示すように、第1空気室52と第2空気室56は、弾性部材16の周方向Cにおいて、それぞれ、複数個が互いに独立して(即ち、非連通状態に)設けられている。この例では、第1空気室52と第2空気室56は、それぞれ6個が周方向Cに均等な間隔で配置されており、しかも上下の空気室52,56が周方向Cにおいて互いに重なる位置に設けられている。そして、これら各空気室52,56のそれぞれについて、外気に連通させるための上記絞り通路54,58が設けられている。   The first air chamber 52 and the second air chamber 56 are provided independently, that is, in a non-communication state. Further, as shown in FIG. 3, a plurality of first air chambers 52 and second air chambers 56 are provided independently of each other (that is, in a non-communication state) in the circumferential direction C of the elastic member 16. ing. In this example, six first air chambers 52 and six second air chambers 56 are arranged at equal intervals in the circumferential direction C, and the upper and lower air chambers 52, 56 overlap each other in the circumferential direction C. Is provided. The air passages 52 and 56 are provided with the throttle passages 54 and 58 for communicating with the outside air.

これらの第1空気室52及び第2空気室56は次のようにして形成されている。すなわち、第1空気室52は、上側弾性部42におけるフランジ部20と上側壁部24によって挟み込まれる部分に設けられており、この例では、上側弾性部42の下面42A(図2参照)において上方に凹み形成された凹部60と、フランジ部20の上面20Aとの間で形成されている。また、第2空気室56は、下側弾性部44におけるフランジ部20と下側壁部26によって挟み込まれる部分に設けられており、この例では、下側弾性部44の上面44A(図2参照)において下方に凹み形成された凹部62と、フランジ部20の下面20Bとの間で形成されている。これらの凹部60,62は、周方向Cに沿って若干細長い長穴状に形成されている(図3参照)。   The first air chamber 52 and the second air chamber 56 are formed as follows. That is, the first air chamber 52 is provided in a portion sandwiched between the flange portion 20 and the upper side wall portion 24 in the upper elastic portion 42. In this example, the first air chamber 52 is located above the lower surface 42A (see FIG. 2) of the upper elastic portion 42. The recess 60 is formed between the upper surface 20 </ b> A of the flange portion 20. The second air chamber 56 is provided in a portion sandwiched between the flange portion 20 and the lower side wall portion 26 in the lower elastic portion 44. In this example, the upper surface 44A of the lower elastic portion 44 (see FIG. 2). Are formed between the recess 62 that is recessed downward and the lower surface 20B of the flange portion 20. These recesses 60 and 62 are formed in the shape of a slightly elongated slot along the circumferential direction C (see FIG. 3).

第1及び第2絞り通路54,58は、弾性部材16の内周側で大気と連通するように設けられており、この例では、第1絞り通路54は、上側弾性部42の下面42Aにおいて凹部60から軸直角方向内方Y2に延びる細長い凹溝64と、フランジ部20の上面20Aとの間で形成されている。また、第2絞り通路58は、下側弾性部44の上面44Aにおいて凹部62から軸直角方向内方Y2に延びる細長い凹溝66と、フランジ部20の下面20Bとの間で形成されている。   The first and second throttle passages 54 and 58 are provided so as to communicate with the atmosphere on the inner peripheral side of the elastic member 16. In this example, the first throttle passage 54 is formed on the lower surface 42 </ b> A of the upper elastic portion 42. It is formed between the elongated groove 64 extending from the recess 60 in the direction Y2 in the direction perpendicular to the axis and the upper surface 20A of the flange portion 20. Further, the second throttle passage 58 is formed between an elongated concave groove 66 extending from the concave portion 62 in the axially perpendicular direction inward Y2 on the upper surface 44A of the lower elastic portion 44 and the lower surface 20B of the flange portion 20.

サスペンションサポート10を組み立てる際には、上側弾性部42と下側弾性部44をそれぞれ加硫成形した後、図2に示すように、内側部材12の上下両側からこれら弾性部42,44を組み付ける。その際、内側部材12と上下の弾性部42,44との界面を接着剤を用いて接着固定することで、絞り通路54,58以外の箇所から空気が漏れないようにする。次いで、このようにして弾性部材16を後接着した内側部材12を、図4に示すように、第1外側部材32の下側壁部26上に載せて、その上から第2外側部材34を被せ、ピストンロッド1の上端部1Aをナット5を用いて内側部材12に挿通固定し、また、第1外側部材32と第2外側部材34の両フランジ36,40を車体パネル2の下面に重ねてボルト3及びナット4を用いて締結固定する。これにより、上側弾性部42と下側弾性部44からなる弾性部材16は、外側部材14により軸方向Xにおいて圧縮された状態に保持される。   When the suspension support 10 is assembled, after the upper elastic portion 42 and the lower elastic portion 44 are respectively vulcanized, the elastic portions 42 and 44 are assembled from both the upper and lower sides of the inner member 12 as shown in FIG. At that time, the interface between the inner member 12 and the upper and lower elastic portions 42 and 44 is bonded and fixed using an adhesive so that air does not leak from locations other than the throttle passages 54 and 58. Next, the inner member 12 to which the elastic member 16 is post-bonded in this way is placed on the lower side wall portion 26 of the first outer member 32 and the second outer member 34 is covered from above, as shown in FIG. The upper end 1 </ b> A of the piston rod 1 is inserted and fixed to the inner member 12 using the nut 5, and the flanges 36 and 40 of the first outer member 32 and the second outer member 34 are overlapped on the lower surface of the vehicle body panel 2. The bolt 3 and the nut 4 are used for fastening. Thereby, the elastic member 16 composed of the upper elastic portion 42 and the lower elastic portion 44 is held in a compressed state in the axial direction X by the outer member 14.

このサスペンションサポート10であると、ピストンロッド1からの入力により、内側部材12が上方X1に変位すると、上側弾性部42に設けた第1空気室52が圧縮され、第1絞り通路54を介して第1空気室52内の空気が外部に流出する。この状態から内側部材12が下方X2に変位すると、今度は下側弾性部44に設けた第2空気室56が圧縮され、第2絞り通路58を介して第2空気室56内の空気が外部に流出するとともに、上側弾性部42では第1空気室52が拡張することで、第1絞り通路54を介して第1空気室52内に空気が流れ込む。次いで、内側部材12が上方X1に変位すると、第1空気室52が圧縮されるとともに、下側弾性部44の第2空気室56が拡張することで、第2絞り通路58を介して第2空気室56内に空気が流れ込む。このようにして内側部材12の上下変位時に、上側弾性部42と下側弾性部44に設けた第1及び第2空気室52,56が拡縮することにより、第1及び第2絞り通路54,58を介して空気が出入りする。その際、絞り通路54,58の流動抵抗により、上記空気の出入りに、入力振動に対する位相遅れが生じ、該位相遅れによって減衰効果が発揮される。そのため、ゴム製の弾性部材16でありながら、かつ液室等の複雑な構造を設けることなく、連続気泡構造を持つ発泡ウレタン並みの上記低動倍率高減衰性能を発揮することができる。   In the suspension support 10, when the inner member 12 is displaced upward X <b> 1 by the input from the piston rod 1, the first air chamber 52 provided in the upper elastic portion 42 is compressed, and the first throttle chamber 54 passes through the first throttle passage 54. The air in the first air chamber 52 flows out to the outside. When the inner member 12 is displaced downward X2 from this state, this time, the second air chamber 56 provided in the lower elastic portion 44 is compressed, and the air in the second air chamber 56 is externally passed through the second throttle passage 58. As the first air chamber 52 expands in the upper elastic portion 42, air flows into the first air chamber 52 through the first throttle passage 54. Next, when the inner member 12 is displaced upward X1, the first air chamber 52 is compressed, and the second air chamber 56 of the lower elastic portion 44 is expanded, whereby the second air chamber 56 is expanded via the second throttle passage 58. Air flows into the air chamber 56. Thus, when the inner member 12 is displaced up and down, the first and second air passages 52 and 56 provided in the upper elastic portion 42 and the lower elastic portion 44 expand and contract, so that the first and second throttle passages 54 and 56 Air enters and exits via 58. At this time, due to the flow resistance of the throttle passages 54 and 58, a phase lag with respect to the input vibration occurs in the air flow, and the damping effect is exhibited by the phase lag. Therefore, although it is the elastic member 16 made of rubber, the above-described low dynamic magnification and high damping performance similar to urethane foam having an open cell structure can be exhibited without providing a complicated structure such as a liquid chamber.

このサスペンションサポート10であると、また、上側弾性部42と下側弾性部44の双方に空気室52,56をそれぞれ独立して設けたことにより、減衰性能を更に高めることができる。すなわち、仮に上側の第1空気室52と下側の第2空気室56がつながっていると、一方の空気室が圧縮されたときに他方の空気室に空気が逃げてしまい、絞り通路54,58における空気の出入り量を確保することが難しくなるが、上下の空気室52,56を独立して設けたことにより、それぞれの減衰性能を発揮させることができる。   In the suspension support 10, the damping performance can be further enhanced by providing the air chambers 52 and 56 independently in both the upper elastic portion 42 and the lower elastic portion 44, respectively. That is, if the upper first air chamber 52 and the lower second air chamber 56 are connected, when one of the air chambers is compressed, the air escapes to the other air chamber, Although it becomes difficult to secure the amount of air flowing in and out at 58, by providing the upper and lower air chambers 52 and 56 independently, the respective damping performance can be exhibited.

また、空気室52,56を周方向Cに複数個独立して設けたことにより、各空気室にて減衰性能を発揮させることができ、例えば、外側部材14に対して内側部材12がこじれた方向に変位した場合においても、こじり変位によって圧縮される周方向部分の空気室において、その拡縮による絞り通路54,58での空気の出入りにより減衰性能を発揮することができる。すなわち、仮に空気室52,56が周方向Cにおいて全周にわたって連続して設けられていると、こじり変位により周方向Cの一部で空気室が圧縮されたときに、この部分の空気が周方向Cの両側に逃げてしまい、絞り通路54,58における空気の出入り量を確保することが難しくなるが、周方向Cに分離独立して設けることで、このような問題を解決することができる。   In addition, by providing a plurality of air chambers 52 and 56 independently in the circumferential direction C, it is possible to exhibit attenuation performance in each air chamber. For example, the inner member 12 is twisted with respect to the outer member 14. Even in the case of displacement in the direction, in the circumferentially compressed air chamber compressed by the twisting displacement, the damping performance can be exerted by the inflow and outflow of the air in the throttle passages 54 and 58 due to the expansion and contraction. That is, if the air chambers 52 and 56 are provided continuously over the entire circumference in the circumferential direction C, when the air chamber is compressed in a part of the circumferential direction C due to the twisting displacement, It escapes to both sides of the direction C, and it becomes difficult to secure the amount of air in and out of the throttle passages 54 and 58, but such a problem can be solved by providing them separately in the circumferential direction C. .

また、空気室52,56と絞り通路54,58が、上側弾性部42と下側弾性部44におけるフランジ部20との当接面20A,20Bに凹み形成することで設けられているので、モールド成形しやすく、製造コストを抑えることができる。   Further, the air chambers 52, 56 and the throttle passages 54, 58 are provided by forming recesses in the contact surfaces 20A, 20B of the upper elastic portion 42 and the flange portion 20 of the lower elastic portion 44. It is easy to mold and manufacturing costs can be reduced.

図5〜8は、他の実施形態に係るサスペンションサポート10A及びその構成部品を示したものである。この実施形態は、内側部材12、外側部材14及び弾性部材16の具体的形状が先の実施形態とは異なるものの、基本的な構成は同じであり、同一符号を付した箇所は、特に説明しない限り、形状が相違するのみで同様の構成を有するものとして説明を省略する。   5 to 8 show a suspension support 10A and its components according to another embodiment. In this embodiment, although the specific shapes of the inner member 12, the outer member 14, and the elastic member 16 are different from those of the previous embodiment, the basic configuration is the same, and the portions denoted by the same reference numerals are not specifically described. As long as the configuration is the same, the description is omitted.

この実施形態において、内側部材12は、内筒部18が長く形成されており、その軸方向中央部に上記フランジ部20が設けられている。外側部材14は、下方に開口する椀状の第1外側部材70と、その下面開口を覆う第2外側部材72とからなり、第1外側部材70で筒部22と上側壁部24が形成され、第2外側部材72で下側壁部26が形成されている。ゴム製の弾性部材16は、上側弾性部42と下側弾性部44とが同一形状に形成されており、部品の共通化が図られている。   In this embodiment, the inner member 12 is formed with a long inner cylinder portion 18, and the flange portion 20 is provided at the axial center portion thereof. The outer member 14 includes a bowl-shaped first outer member 70 that opens downward, and a second outer member 72 that covers the lower surface opening. The first outer member 70 forms a cylindrical portion 22 and an upper wall portion 24. The lower side wall portion 26 is formed by the second outer member 72. In the elastic member 16 made of rubber, the upper elastic portion 42 and the lower elastic portion 44 are formed in the same shape, and the parts are shared.

上側弾性部42に第1空気室52と第1絞り通路54が設けられ、下側弾性部44に第2空気室56と第2絞り通路58が設けられた点、並びに、これら第1及び第2空気室52,54と第1及び第2絞り通路54,58の配置及び形状は、図1の実施形態と同様である。従って、この実施形態でも先の実施形態と同様の低動倍率高減衰特性が得られる。   The first air chamber 52 and the first throttle passage 54 are provided in the upper elastic portion 42, the second air chamber 56 and the second throttle passage 58 are provided in the lower elastic portion 44, and the first and first The arrangement and shape of the two air chambers 52, 54 and the first and second throttle passages 54, 58 are the same as in the embodiment of FIG. Therefore, in this embodiment, the same low dynamic magnification and high attenuation characteristic as in the previous embodiment can be obtained.

図9及び10は、さらに他の実施形態に係るサスペンションサポートの弾性部材16を示したものである。この実施形態では、絞り通路54,58の構成が図5に示す実施形態とは異なる。すなわち、この例では、絞り通路54,58は、空気室52,56から軸直角方向外方側Y1に延びて、弾性部材16の外周面から外気に連通するように設けられている。上下の弾性部42,44の外周面には、湾曲面状にわずかに凹んだ凹所80が設けれるとともに、該凹所80と弾性部42,44の各凹部60,62とを連通する貫通孔82が設けられ、該貫通孔82により絞り通路54,58が構成されている。   9 and 10 show a suspension support elastic member 16 according to still another embodiment. In this embodiment, the configuration of the throttle passages 54 and 58 is different from the embodiment shown in FIG. That is, in this example, the throttle passages 54 and 58 are provided so as to extend from the air chambers 52 and 56 to the outer side Y1 in the direction perpendicular to the axis and communicate with the outside air from the outer peripheral surface of the elastic member 16. The outer peripheral surfaces of the upper and lower elastic portions 42 and 44 are provided with a concave portion 80 that is slightly recessed in a curved surface shape, and a through hole that communicates the concave portion 80 with the concave portions 60 and 62 of the elastic portions 42 and 44. A hole 82 is provided, and the through holes 82 constitute throttle passages 54 and 58.

その他の構成は、図5の実施形態と同様であり、そのため、この実施形態でも基本的には図1の実施形態と同様の作用効果が奏される。但し、このような貫通孔82からなる絞り通路54,58は、モールド成形にて型割り面が多くなる等、製造しにくいことから、先の実施形態のような凹溝64,66による構成の方が有利である。   Other configurations are the same as those of the embodiment of FIG. 5, and therefore, this embodiment basically exhibits the same functions and effects as those of the embodiment of FIG. 1. However, since the narrow passages 54 and 58 formed of the through holes 82 are difficult to manufacture because the mold dividing surface is increased by molding, the constricted grooves 64 and 66 as in the previous embodiment are used. Is more advantageous.

なお、上記実施形態では、上側弾性部42と下側弾性部44の双方に空気室52,56を設けたが、いずれか一方のみに設けてもよい。また、弾性部材16の周方向Cにおける空気室52,56の配設個数は上記に限定されず、種々の個数に設定可能であり、上側の第1空気室52と下側の第2空気室56の個数を異ならせてもよい。   In the above embodiment, the air chambers 52 and 56 are provided in both the upper elastic portion 42 and the lower elastic portion 44, but may be provided in only one of them. The number of the air chambers 52 and 56 in the circumferential direction C of the elastic member 16 is not limited to the above, and can be set to various numbers. The upper first air chamber 52 and the lower second air chamber. The number of 56 may be different.

上記実施形態のサスペンションサポート(ゴム・空気室あり)と、ゴム製弾性部材において空気室を設けていない例(ゴム・空気室なし)とについて、配合違いによるゴム硬度の変更や、組み付け状態での圧縮率の変更により、複数のサンプルを作製して、上記の方法により動倍率とロスファクターを測定した。また、発泡ウレタンからなる弾性部材において空気室を設けていない例(ウレタン・空気室なし)について、配合違いによるウレタン密度の変更や、組み付け状態での圧縮率の変更により、複数のサンプルを作製して、同様に動倍率とロスファクターを測定した。   For the suspension support of the above embodiment (with rubber / air chamber) and the example where the rubber elastic member is not provided with an air chamber (without rubber / air chamber) A plurality of samples were prepared by changing the compression ratio, and the dynamic magnification and the loss factor were measured by the above method. In addition, for an elastic member made of urethane foam that does not have an air chamber (no urethane / air chamber), multiple samples can be prepared by changing the urethane density due to a different formulation or by changing the compression ratio in the assembled state. Similarly, the dynamic magnification and the loss factor were measured.

結果は、表1及び図11に示す通りであり、本実施形態に係る実施例1〜3であると、空気室52,56を設けたことで、ゴム弾性体からなる弾性部材16でありながら、発泡ウレタン並みの低動倍率高減衰特性が得られており、乗り心地性と操縦安定性に優れるものであった。
