Description

  The present invention relates to an anti-vibration device used for an engine mount of an automobile, and in particular, an inner bracket is attached to a mount body and protrudes to the side, and the mount body is inserted into a portal outer bracket from the side. It is related with the vibration isolator with a bracket attached.

  2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, an anti-vibration device has been known as a type of anti-vibration coupling body or anti-vibration support body that is interposed between members constituting a vibration transmission system and mutually anti-vibrates and connects these members. It has been applied to engine mounts. This vibration isolator includes a mount body in which a first mounting member and a second mounting member are elastically connected by a main rubber elastic body.

  Moreover, as a kind of vibration isolator, as shown in French Patent No. 2810712 (Patent Document 1), an inner bracket is press-fitted and fixed to the cylindrical portion of the first mounting member to the side. There is also a vibration isolator with a bracket in which a second mounting member is laterally inserted and attached to a portal-type outer bracket that protrudes and has a pair of leg portions and a beam portion connecting them. .

  By the way, in order to prevent damage due to excessive deformation of the main rubber elastic body, the vibration isolator may be provided with stopper means for limiting the relative displacement amount between the first mounting member and the second mounting member. In Patent Document 1, bound stopper means for limiting the relative displacement amount in the approaching direction of the first mounting member and the second mounting member is configured by contact between the first mounting member and the outer bracket. ing.

  However, in the vibration isolator described in Patent Document 1, the amount of relative displacement of the first mounting member and the second mounting member in the lateral direction is not particularly limited unless the stopper means is constituted by another component that supports the power unit. Therefore, if a large lateral load is input to the vibration isolator without restricting the displacement with a separate part, the main rubber elastic body will be damaged, and sufficient durability cannot be obtained. There was also a fear.

  Moreover, in the structure of Patent Document 1, since both the first mounting member and the outer bracket constituting the bound stopper means are constituent members of the mount body, for example, when these members are deformed by a load at the time of contact, There was a risk of problems such as a decrease in vibration-proof performance and leakage of the enclosed incompressible fluid.

  The cylindrical portion 66 of the pressing member 64 is extrapolated with respect to the partition member 50, and is placed on the annular contact portion 68 of the pressing member 64 between the lower end surface of the partition member 50 placed thereon. Thus, the annular seal portion 60 of the flexible film 52 is sandwiched and held. Further, the annular plate portion 70 of the pressing member 64 is superimposed on the lower end surface of the locking portion 32 of the second mounting member 20, and each locking piece 74 is placed on the outer peripheral surface of the second mounting member 20.

Further, the annular plate portion 70 of the pressing member 64 is overlapped with the lower end surface of the second mounting member 20 on the inner peripheral side with respect to the locking portion 32 with the seal rubber 48 interposed therebetween. An axial pressing force can be exerted on the seal rubber 48 between the first mounting member 20 and the second mounting member 20.

  As a result, a reaction force that presses the annular seal portion 60 and the seal rubber 48 in the axial direction is exerted downward in the axial direction of the pressing member 64. Then, against the pressing reaction force, the locking piece 74 of the pressing member 64 is locked to the locking portion 32 of the second mounting member 20, and the pressing member 64 is against the second mounting member 20. It is held at the approach position in the axial direction. As a result, the sealing force in the axial direction is exerted on the annular seal portion 60 and the seal rubber 48 with the locking force of the pressing member 64 with respect to the second mounting member 20, and these seal portions 48, 60 are applied. As a result, the space between the second mounting member 20 and the partition member 50 and the space between the partition member 50 and the pressing member 64 are temporarily sealed in a fluid-tight manner, so that the fluid tightness of the fluid chamber 76 is maintained.

A circular through hole 96 is formed in the central portion of the pressing bottom portion 94, and the inner diameter dimension of the through hole 96 is substantially the same as the inner diameter dimension of the annular contact portion 68 of the pressing member 64 of the mount body 12. ing.

  Furthermore, the side wall 98 is integrally formed in the portal portion 82 so as to cover the lower part of one side opening. The side wall 98 is curved in a substantially arc shape substantially concentrically with the through hole 96 of the pressing bottom portion 94, and protrudes outward from one side opening of the gate-shaped portion 82. In addition, the side wall 98 is thicker at the upper part than at the lower part, and the upper end surface is a flat surface extending in a direction substantially perpendicular to the axis. The side wall 98 is provided integrally with the lower portions of the pair of leg portions 84, 84, and extends in the circumferential direction across the pair of leg portions 84, 84.

  The side wall 98 is provided, so that the lower portion of the gate-shaped portion 82 has a substantially arc-shaped peripheral wall inner surface 100 extending in the circumferential direction with a length of a half or more, and a press having a through hole 96. A mount holder portion 102 is formed as an assembly space including the bottom portion 94. The mount holder portion 102 is open toward the side opposite to the side flange wall 98, and the opening portion serves as an insertion port into which the mount body 12 is inserted and assembled.

  Further, on the inner surface 100 of the peripheral wall of the mount holder portion 102, a step-shaped pressing top surface 106 is formed on the opposing inner surfaces of the pair of leg portions 84, 84 of the portal portion 82 so as to face the upper surface of the pressing bottom portion 94 in the vertical direction. Has been. Further, fitting grooves 108 and 108 that open toward the inlet are formed between the opposed surfaces of the upper surface of the pressing bottom portion 94 and the pressing top surface 106.

  And the mount main body 12 is inserted and assembled | attached from the side of the mount holder part 102 with respect to the outer bracket 14 made into such a structure. The lower part of the mount body 12 in the axial direction than the second mounting member 20 is fitted into the fitting groove 108 from the inlet of the mount holder 102 and is fixedly fitted.

  That is, when the second mounting member 20 is inserted into the fitting grooves 108 and 108 from the inlet, the outer peripheral surfaces of the fixing portions 33 and 33 are the groove bottom surfaces 110 and 110 of the fitting grooves 108 and 108. It is made to contact. Thereby, the fixing portions 33 and 33 of the second mounting member 20 are fitted and fixed in a press-fitted state to one of the fitting grooves 108 and 108. In the state where the second attachment member 20 is attached to the outer bracket 14, a part of the outer peripheral surface of the second attachment member 20 (the outer peripheral side surface over the substantially half of the right side in FIG. 5) is the outer bracket. 14 side walls 98 are covered.

On the other hand, the pressing top surface 106 of the fitting groove 108 partially presses against the upper surface of the second mounting member 20 on the circumference of the second mounting member 20.

  In this seal state, the locking action between the locking portion 32 and the locking piece 74 need not function. Therefore, it is sufficient that the locking structure of the locking portion 32 and the locking piece 74 has a performance such as strength that can temporarily satisfy the sealing performance required in the temporary sealing state.

  Preferably, the bottom wall portion of the fitting groove 108 in the outer bracket 14 is crushed and caulked to provide a caulking engaging portion that protrudes to the inlet of the outer bracket 14. Further, the engagement action of the caulking engagement portion with the fixing portion 33 prevents the fixing portion 33 from being pulled out from the fitting groove 108 in the insertion direction, and the mount body 12 is securely inserted in the mount holder portion 102. Can be held in the assembled state.

  An inner bracket 16 is attached to the mount body 12. The inner bracket 16 is a high-rigidity member formed of an aluminum alloy die-cast product or the like, similar to the outer bracket 14, and has a tip portion 112 extending linearly with a substantially H-shaped cross-sectional shape. The base end portion 114 of the sixteen is formed into a thick plate shape and extends forward and backward with respect to the tip end portion 112, and a plurality of fixing bolt insertion holes 116 to the power unit side are formed. Further, the base end portion 114 of the inner bracket 16 has a structure in which a first plate-like portion 118 and a second plate-like portion 120 that extend in a direction substantially perpendicular to the axis are integrally connected to each other by an inclined portion 122. The inclined portion 122 has an inclined shape that inclines upward toward the base end side (right side in FIG. 5), and the first plate-like portion 118 and the second plate-like portion 120 are connected via the inclined portion 122. As a result, the first plate-like portion 118 on the distal end side is positioned below the second plate-like portion 120 on the proximal end side. The insertion hole 116 is formed so as to penetrate the second plate-like portion 120 up and down.

  And the front-end | tip part 112 of the inner bracket 16 is assembled | attached and fixed to the cylindrical part 26 of the 1st attachment member 18 from the side in the press-fit state, and 1st attachment is carried out via the inner bracket 16. The member 18 is attached to the power unit. That is, the distal end portion 112 of the inner bracket 16 is inserted into the hollow hole 24 of the first mounting member 18 from the direction opposite to the direction in which the mount body 12 is inserted into the outer bracket 14. A fitting rubber layer 34 is formed on the inner surface of the hollow hole 24, and the top and bottom and front and rear dimensions of the front end portion 112 of the inner bracket 16 are substantially equal to the dimensions of the hollow hole 24. The bracket 16 is inserted into the hollow hole 24 in contact with the fitting rubber layer 34 or by compressing the fitting rubber layer 34. Thus, the inner bracket 16 and the first mounting member 18 are in close contact with each other via the fitting rubber layer 34, and the inner bracket 16 and the first fitting member 18 are brought into contact with each other by the frictional action between the inner bracket 16 and the fitting rubber layer 34. Extraction from one mounting member 18 can be effectively prevented.

  Further, the base end portion 114 of the inner bracket 16 extends laterally from the cylindrical portion 26 of the first mounting member 18, and the inner bracket 16 is connected to the beam portion 86 of the outer bracket 14 and the side flange wall 98. It protrudes to the side through the top and bottom. In addition, the inner bracket 16 is spaced apart from the outer bracket 14 in the mounted state on the first mounting member 18.

  Further, the first shock absorbing rubber 42 is superimposed on the lower surface of the first plate-like portion 118 of the inner bracket 16 in a contact state, and the first shock absorbing rubber 42 is attached to the side wall of the outer bracket 14. The upper end surface of 98 is disposed so as to be spaced apart upward.

The layer 38 is compressed and pressed against the top surface of the inner surface of the portal portion 82 in the outer bracket 14.

  The engine mount 10 having the above-described structure is fixed to the power unit by inserting a bolt into the insertion hole 116 of the inner bracket 16 and fixed to the vehicle body by inserting the bolt into the insertion hole 90 of the outer bracket 14. The Thereby, the power unit and the vehicle body are elastically connected by the engine mount 10. In such a vehicle mounted state, a shared load of the power unit weight is applied to the engine mount 10, and the main rubber elastic body 22 is elastically deformed. As a result, the first mounting member 18 and the second mounting member 20 are relatively displaced in the approach direction in the mount central axis direction, and are opposed to each other with a predetermined separation distance. Further, the upper cushioning rubber layer 38 is positioned at a predetermined distance below the top surface of the inner surface of the portal portion 82 in the outer bracket 14. Further, for example, the engine mount 10 is mounted on the vehicle such that the vertical direction in FIG. 5 is the vertical direction of the vehicle and the right / left direction in FIG. 1 is the horizontal direction of the vehicle.

  When vibration such as engine shake is input to the engine mount 10 via the inner bracket 16, a vibration-proofing effect against the input vibration is obtained due to resonance action caused by the flow of incompressible fluid through the orifice passage 58. Can be demonstrated.

  Here, when excessive downward vibration is input to the engine mount 10, the inner bracket 16 comes into contact with the upper end surface of the side wall 98 of the outer bracket 14. Thereby, the bound stopper means which restrict | limits the displacement amount in the relative approach direction in the mount center axis direction of the 1st attachment member 18 and the 2nd attachment member 20 is comprised. The first shock absorbing rubber 42 is inserted between the side wall 98 of the outer bracket 14 and the inner bracket 16, and the outer bracket 14 and the inner bracket 16 in the bound stopper means are The first buffer rubber 42 is adapted to be brought into contact with each other in a buffering manner.

  On the other hand, when excessive upward vibration is input to the engine mount 10, the first mounting member 18 comes into contact with the top surface of the portal portion 82 of the outer bracket 14 via the upper cushioning rubber layer 38. Thereby, the rebound stopper means which restrict | limits the displacement amount in the relative separation direction in the mount center axis direction of the 1st attachment member 18 and the 2nd attachment member 20 is comprised.

  Further, when excessive vibration in the vehicle front-rear direction is input to the engine mount 10, the first mounting member 18 contacts the peripheral wall inner surface 100 of the outer bracket 14 via the side cushioning rubber layers 40, 40. . Thereby, the front-rear direction stopper means for restricting the relative displacement amount of the first mounting member 18 and the second mounting member 20 in the vehicle front-rear direction or the left-right direction is configured.

  Further, when excessive vibration in the vehicle left-right direction is input to the engine mount 10, the inner bracket 16 comes into contact with the side surface of the outer bracket 14. Specifically, a pressure receiving portion 124 that protrudes laterally toward the proximal end portion 114 of the inner bracket 16 is formed at the center of the side surface of the beam portion 86 of the outer bracket 14. On the other hand, the inclined portion 122 of the inner bracket 16 is integrally formed with an abutting portion 126 that protrudes toward the distal end side, and the abutting portion 126 is disposed to face the pressure receiving portion 124 of the outer bracket 14 in the left-right direction. Yes. Then, the abutting portion 126 of the inner bracket 16 and the pressure receiving portion 124 of the outer bracket 14 abut against each other in the opposing direction, so that the first mounting member 18 and the second mounting member 20 are relatively moved in the left-right direction. Side stopper means for limiting the amount of displacement is configured.

  The pressure receiving portion 124 of the outer bracket 14 and the abutting portion 126 of the inner bracket 16 are such that their opposing surfaces are flat surfaces extending substantially perpendicular to the opposing direction, and these pressure receiving portions A second shock absorbing rubber 128 is disposed between the opposing surfaces of 124 and the contact portion 126. The second buffer rubber 128 is formed of a rubber elastic body that is separate from the main rubber elastic body 22 and has a substantially rectangular plate shape. Further, the second shock absorber 128 is integrally formed with a pair of insertion protrusions 130 and 130 protruding to one side in the thickness direction. The insertion protrusion 130 has a substantially cylindrical shape with a small diameter, and a taper-shaped engagement portion 132 whose diameter decreases toward the protrusion tip is integrally formed at an intermediate portion in the protrusion direction. The pair of insertion protrusions 130 and 130 are inserted into one of the engagement holes 134 and 134 formed through the pressure receiving portion 124, and the engagement portion 132 is locked to the opening peripheral edge of the engagement hole 134. As a result, the second buffer rubber 128 is attached to the pressure receiving portion 124. In the present embodiment, the second buffer rubber 128 is superimposed on the pressure receiving portion 124 in a contact state, and is disposed to face the contact portion 126 with a predetermined distance. By arranging such a second buffer rubber 128, in the side stopper means, the contact portion 126 of the inner bracket 16 and the pressure receiving portion 124 of the outer bracket 14 are brought into contact in a buffering manner, The hitting sound and impact at the time of contact are alleviated.

  As described above, in the engine mount 10 of this embodiment, in addition to the upper and lower and front and rear stopper means (bound stopper means, rebound stopper means, front and rear direction stopper means), one stopper means (side stopper means) in the left and right direction. Is provided. Thereby, the relative displacement amount of the first mounting member 18 and the second mounting member 20 is limited in multiple directions, and the durability is improved more advantageously by preventing excessive deformation of the main rubber elastic body 22. Figured. In the present embodiment, the relative displacement of the first mounting member 18 in the left-right direction other than the second mounting member 20 (rightward in FIG. 1) can be limited by another engine mount (not shown). desirable.

In particular, the side stopper means for preventing the mount body 12 from coming out of the inlet of the outer bracket 14 is provided with the inner bracket 16. Since it is comprised by contact | abutting with the outer bracket 14, it is not necessary to add a special component.

  Further, the bound stopper means and the side stopper means that are assumed to receive a large load are configured by the abutment of the inner bracket 16 and the outer bracket 14 without including the mount body 12. Therefore, even if a large stopper load is input, the mount body 12 is not damaged, and adverse effects on the vibration isolation performance are prevented. In particular, in the fluid-filled mount body 12, liquid leakage due to damage can be avoided, and the intended vibration isolation characteristics can be realized with excellent reliability.

  Furthermore, the bound stopper means and the side stopper means have a structure in which the highly rigid brackets are in contact with each other, so that even if a large stopper load is input, damage to the constituent members of the stopper means is avoided. High load resistance is achieved.

  Further, since the first buffer rubber 42 constituting the bound stopper means is integrally formed with the main rubber elastic body 22, the bound stopper means can reduce the hitting sound and impact without increasing the number of parts. .

  In the present embodiment, the abutting portion 126 integrally formed with the inner bracket 16 and the pressure receiving portion 124 integrally formed with the outer bracket 14 protrude opposite to each other, and these abutting portions 126 are also provided. The opposing surfaces of the pressure receiving portion 124 are flat surfaces that are substantially orthogonal to the opposing direction, and spread substantially parallel to each other. Therefore, the contact area between the contact portion 126 and the pressure receiving portion 124, the distance to the contact (stopper clearance), and the like can be set with high accuracy, and the first mounting member 18 and the second mounting member 20 The amount of relative displacement to the side is limited with high accuracy. In addition, the second shock absorbing rubber 128 disposed between the facing surfaces of the abutting portion 126 and the pressure receiving portion 124 is compressed between the abutting portion 126 and the pressure receiving portion 124 to reduce the amount of shear deformation. Therefore, the durability of the second shock absorbing rubber 128 is improved.

  The second shock absorbing rubber 128 disposed between the facing surfaces of the abutting portion 126 of the inner bracket 16 and the pressure receiving portion 124 of the outer bracket 14 is formed separately from the main rubber elastic body 22 and receives pressure. It is attached to the part 124 in a contact state. Therefore, the shape, size, arrangement, and the like of the second buffer rubber 128 can be set with a large degree of freedom without being affected by the shape of the main rubber elastic body 22. Moreover, the material for forming the second buffer rubber 128 can be different from that of the main rubber elastic body 22, and the main rubber elastic body 22 and the second buffer rubber 128 can be made of materials according to the respective required characteristics. Can be formed. Specifically, for example, by selecting an elastic material excellent in damping performance, self-lubricating property, etc. as a material for forming the second buffer rubber 128, the buffering effect, the contact sound reduction effect, etc. are advantageous. Can be realized.

  In addition, the second buffer rubber 128 of the present embodiment is configured such that the engagement portion 132 of the insertion protrusion 130 inserted into the engagement hole 134 of the pressure receiving portion 124 abuts on the opening peripheral edge of the engagement hole 134. By being stopped, it is attached to the pressure receiving portion 124, and a special bonding process is not required, and the manufacturing is easy.
