Description

  The present invention relates to a liquid-filled vibration isolator.

  As an anti-vibration device such as an engine mount that supports the vibration of a vibration source such as an automobile engine so as not to be transmitted to the vehicle body side, a first attachment attached to the vibration source side, a second attachment attached to the support side, An anti-vibration base made of a rubber-like elastic body interposed between the fixtures, a main liquid chamber in which the anti-vibration base forms part of the chamber wall, and a sub-liquid chamber in which the diaphragm forms part of the chamber wall; And an orifice channel that communicates between the liquid chambers, and is configured to perform a vibration damping function and a vibration insulation function by the liquid flow effect by the orifice channel and the vibration damping effect of the vibration-proof substrate. An enclosed vibration isolator is known.

  In this type of liquid-filled vibration isolator, a plurality of orifice passages tuned to different frequencies are provided so that the orifice passages can be switched in order to cope with a wide range of vibrations. Yes.

  For example, Patent Document 1 below discloses a switchable liquid-filled vibration isolator that can be closed with an urging means such as a spring with respect to the opening of the high-frequency side orifice channel. In this document, negative pressure is used to open the opening from the closed state. That is, a switching chamber in which atmospheric pressure and negative pressure can be selectively introduced is provided behind the diaphragm, and by introducing atmospheric pressure into the switching chamber, the high-frequency orifice channel is closed by the urging means, and the switching chamber is negatively charged. By introducing pressure, the high-frequency side orifice channel is opened.

  In the following Patent Document 2, a sliding portion called a plunger is provided in a partition body between a main liquid chamber and a sub liquid chamber, and the plunger is urged to an open state of a high frequency side orifice channel by a spring. A configuration is disclosed in which the plunger is moved up and down by the pressure difference between the liquid chambers to switch between opening and closing of the high-frequency side orifice channel.

  In the following Patent Document 3, a high frequency side orifice channel is formed inside the upper fixture, a second sub liquid chamber is provided thereon, a movable membrane is disposed in the second sub liquid chamber, and upper and lower sides of the movable membrane are arranged. A configuration is disclosed in which the opening and closing of the high-frequency orifice channel is attempted by movement.

Patent Document 4 listed below has a configuration in which a connecting flow path that connects the main liquid chamber and the sub liquid chamber is closed by using a biasing means such as a leaf spring on the main liquid chamber side of the partition body. It is disclosed. However, this document discloses that when the main liquid chamber reaches a predetermined pressure or less due to an input of a shocking large load vibration, the connection flow path is opened, so that the sub liquid chamber moves from the main liquid chamber to the main liquid chamber. It leaks liquid and suppresses cavitation, and does not switch the orifice flow path tuned to a different frequency.

  In the configuration of Patent Document 1, it is necessary to provide a switching chamber, which increases the size of the vibration isolator. Further, it is necessary to separately provide a spring as an urging means and a diaphragm for forming a switching chamber, which increases costs.

  In the configuration of Patent Document 2, the plunger is slid by the pressure difference between the main liquid chamber and the sub liquid chamber, so that the high-frequency side orifice passage is relatively closed. That is, in this case, the plunger is slid by the pressure difference between the main liquid chamber and the sub liquid chamber, not by the liquid flow in the high-frequency side orifice flow path, and the pressure difference is utilized. In this case, since the operating frequency band becomes higher than when liquid flow is used, the effect is slow, and the damping effect of low-frequency shake vibration is inferior. Moreover, in the structure of this literature, in order to guarantee the sliding of the plunger, the dimensional accuracy of the member is required, and the cost increase is large.

  In the configuration of Patent Document 3, since the movable membrane does not have a return means, the position of the movable membrane is easily affected by gravity, lacks positional stability, and the reliability of the switching operation is insufficient.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a liquid-filled vibration isolator having a plurality of orifice channels that can switch characteristics with an inexpensive structure. .

A liquid-filled vibration isolator according to claim 1 of the present invention includes a first fixture attached to one of the vibration source side and the support side, a second fixture attached to the other of the vibration source side and the support side, An anti-vibration base made of a rubber-like elastic body interposed between the first attachment and the second attachment; a main liquid chamber in which a liquid forming a part of a chamber wall of the anti-vibration base is enclosed; A first orifice channel that communicates at least one sub liquid chamber in which a liquid, in which a diaphragm made of a rubber-like elastic membrane forms part of the chamber wall, is sealed, and the main liquid chamber and any one of the sub liquid chambers A second orifice channel that is tuned to a higher frequency range than the first orifice channel and communicates between any two of the main liquid chamber and the sub liquid chamber; and the main liquid chamber; A partition in which any of the secondary liquid chambers is partitioned and the second orifice channel is formed Body and a valve member made of a rubber-like elastic membrane that opens and closes the second orifice passage, in which with a. A valve housing chamber that houses and holds the valve member is provided in a part of the second orifice channel so as to be orthogonal to the flow direction of the channel. The valve member is provided in the partition body by having an outer peripheral portion sandwiched between wall surfaces of the valve accommodating chamber and being bent and deformed inside the outer peripheral portion by a liquid flow in the second orifice channel. And a flexible membrane portion that closes the opening of the second orifice channel to the valve accommodating chamber. One opening is provided on each of the front and back sides of the film portion. The membrane portion has a communication hole for communicating the second orifice channel at a position that does not overlap the opening of the partition, and the second orifice in a state where the membrane portion is separated from the opening. The flow path is configured to be opened, and a protrusion that is compressed between the opposing wall surfaces of the valve accommodating chamber is provided on the film surface at the position where the flow path does not overlap. .

  With such a liquid filled type vibration isolator, when the input has a relatively small amplitude, the second orifice channel is not blocked by the valve member, and the liquid in the second orifice channel is communicated through the communication hole provided in the valve member. Therefore, it is possible to realize characteristics using the second orifice channel on the high frequency side. On the other hand, when the input has a relatively large amplitude, the liquid flow in the second orifice channel increases, so that the valve member bends and deforms, and the second orifice channel on the high frequency side is closed. Thereby, since the liquid moves between the liquid chambers only through the first orifice channel on the low frequency side, it is possible to ensure a high attenuation performance on the low frequency side.

  Further, since the second orifice channel is closed by bending deformation of the valve member made of a rubber-like elastic film, when the liquid flow to the valve member becomes small, the restoring force of the valve member causes the second orifice. The flow path can be returned to the open state. Therefore, an urging means such as a spring and a switching chamber for negative pressure are not required, and the apparatus can be easily reduced in size and cost.

  Further, the protrusion provided on the membrane portion of the valve member makes it possible to further increase the restoring force after the deformation of the valve member. In other words, the return of the valve member after the deformation of the deformation is further ensured, and the second orifice The flow path can be reliably opened. Further, even when the valve member is bent and deformed, the displacement of the film portion around the protrusion can be suppressed, and the contact area between the valve member and the wall surface of the partition body when the second orifice channel is closed can be reduced. Effective in reducing abnormal noise.

In the liquid-filled type vibration isolator according to claim 2 of the present invention, the communication holes are arranged in parallel at a plurality of locations on the circumference surrounding the plug portion at the center of the membrane portion, and the protrusions are arranged on the circumference. It is provided alternately with the communication hole in a plurality of locations. Thus, by providing a plurality of communication holes and protrusions alternately on the circumference, the restoring force of the valve member after bending deformation is enhanced, and the noise reduction effect is excellent.

  In the liquid-filled vibration isolator, the outer peripheral portion of the valve member is formed thicker than the membrane portion, and abuts on the inner peripheral surface of the thick outer peripheral portion so as to be inward of the outer peripheral portion. A ring-shaped restricting protrusion that restricts the displacement of the valve accommodating chamber may be provided on the wall surface of the valve accommodating chamber. Thereby, when a valve member bends and deforms, it is hard to shift | deviate radially inside, and can maintain performance.

  In the liquid-filled vibration isolator, the second orifice channel may be provided in communication with the main liquid chamber and any one of the sub liquid chambers. In addition, the sub-liquid chamber includes a first sub-liquid chamber in which a first diaphragm attached to the second fixture forms a part of a chamber wall, and a second diaphragm provided in the partition body is a part of the chamber wall. A second sub-liquid chamber that forms a part, the partition body partitions the main liquid chamber and the first sub-liquid chamber, and the first orifice channel is the main liquid chamber and the first sub-liquid chamber. And the second orifice channel may be provided in communication with the second sub-liquid chamber and the main liquid chamber or the first sub-liquid chamber.

  According to the present invention, in a liquid-filled vibration isolator having a plurality of orifice passages, characteristics can be effectively switched without providing a biasing means such as a spring or a switching chamber for negative pressure. Therefore, it is possible to provide a liquid-filled vibration isolator that switches such characteristics at low cost.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 5C, a circular recess 54 is provided at the center of the lower surface of the partition body 46, and the recess 54 is liquid-tightened by the second diaphragm 50 from below. Thus, a second sub liquid chamber 52 is formed in which the second diaphragm 50 forms part of the chamber wall.

  The main liquid chamber 42 and the first sub liquid chamber 44 are communicated with each other via a first orifice channel 56 which is a throttle channel. In this example, the first orifice channel 56 is a low frequency side orifice tuned to a low frequency range (for example, about 5 to 15 Hz) corresponding to the shake vibration in order to attenuate the shake vibration during vehicle travel. That is, tuning is performed by adjusting the cross-sectional area and length of the flow path so that the damping effect based on the resonance action of the liquid flowing through the first orifice flow path 56 is effectively exhibited when the shake vibration is input. .

More specifically, a circumferential direction C (see FIG. 5) is formed between the first orifice forming groove 58 (see FIG. 5) provided on the outer periphery of the partition body 46 and opened outward, and the seal wall 34. A first orifice channel 56 extending in (b) is formed. As shown in FIG. 5A, the first orifice passage 56 includes a main liquid chamber side opening 56 </ b> A that opens to the main liquid chamber 42 at one end in the circumferential direction C and the other end in the circumferential direction C. The sub liquid chamber side opening 56 </ b> B that opens to the first sub liquid chamber 44 is provided.

  The main liquid chamber 42 and the second sub liquid chamber 52 are communicated with each other via a second orifice channel 60 which is a throttle channel. The second orifice channel 60 is a high-frequency side orifice tuned in a higher frequency range than the first orifice channel 56. In this example, in order to reduce idle vibration during idling (when the vehicle is stopped), idling vibration is used. Is tuned to a high frequency range (for example, about 15 to 50 Hz). That is, it is tuned by adjusting the cross-sectional area and length of the flow path so that the low dynamic spring effect based on the resonance action of the liquid flowing through the second orifice flow path 60 is effectively exhibited when the idle vibration is input. ing.

  The second orifice channel 60 is provided on the inner peripheral side of the partition body 40. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 2, the second orifice flow path 60 includes a first flow path portion 60 </ b> A that penetrates the partition body 46 in the axial direction X on the inner peripheral side of the first orifice formation groove 58, and It consists of an arc-shaped second flow path portion 60B extending in the circumferential direction C provided around the second sub liquid chamber 52 on the lower surface of the partition body 46 (see FIG. 5). And it opens to the main liquid chamber 42 at the upper end of the first flow path part 60A, one end of the second flow path part 60B is connected to the lower end of the first flow path part 60A, and the other end of the second flow path part 60B is By being connected to the second sub liquid chamber 52, the main liquid chamber 42 and the second sub liquid chamber 52 communicate with each other. The second flow path portion 60B has a second orifice forming groove 62 recessed in the lower surface of the partition body 46, and a seal rubber portion integrally connected to the upper surface of the partition receiving plate 48 from the outer peripheral portion of the second diaphragm 50. It is formed by being liquid-tightly sealed with 64.

  The vibration isolator 10 includes a circular membrane valve member 66 made of a rubber elastic body that opens and closes the second orifice channel 60. The partition body 40 is provided with a valve accommodating chamber 68 in a part of the second orifice channel 60, and the valve member 66 is orthogonal to the flow direction of the second orifice channel 60 in the valve accommodating chamber 68. Is housed and held. As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, in this example, in the first flow path portion 60 </ b> A of the second orifice flow path 60, the valve member 66 is in a posture in which the film surface is orthogonal to the axial direction X that is the flow direction. Is arranged.

  Specifically, as shown in FIGS. 5A and 5B, a stepped recess 70 having a circular shape in plan view is provided on the upper surface of the partition body 46, and a metal is formed on the opening side of the stepped recess 70. A space formed by the stepped recess 70 and the lid member 72 is defined as the valve accommodating chamber 68 by internally fitting and fixing the disc-like lid member 72 made of a rigid material such as the above. As shown in FIG. 5B, a circular opening 60C of the second orifice channel 60 is provided at the center of the stepped recess 70, and the lid member is opposed to the opening 60C in the axial direction X. As shown in FIG. 6, a circular opening 60 </ b> D is provided at the center of 72, and these openings 60 </ b> C and 60 </ b> D are openings of the second orifice channel 60 to the valve storage chamber 68.

  The valve member 66 is mounted in the stepped recess 70 and the lid member 72 is fixed, so that the outer peripheral portion 66A has upper and lower wall surfaces 68A and 68B (that is, the stepped surface and the lower surface of the lid member 72 are stepped). It is held in the valve storage chamber 68 in a state of being liquid-tightly held by the bottom surface of the recess 70. As shown in FIG. 4, the valve member 66 includes a flexible membrane portion 66 </ b> B in which the outer peripheral portion 66 </ b> A is thick over the entire circumference and a thin film is formed inside the thick outer peripheral portion 66 </ b> A. It becomes. The film portion 66B is formed so as to block between the inner peripheral surfaces at an intermediate position in the thickness direction (axial direction X) of the thick outer peripheral portion 66A.

  The membrane portion 66B is bent and deformed (elastically deformed) in the axial direction X from the neutral position shown in FIG. 7A due to the liquid flow in the second orifice channel 60, and as shown in FIG. 7B. As described above, the openings 60C and 60D of the second orifice channel 60 are configured to be closed. Therefore, in the membrane portion 66B, the central portion facing the openings 60C and 60D is a plug portion 66C that closes the openings.

  As shown in FIG. 4, the membrane portion 66 </ b> B has a plurality of communication holes 76 that allow the second orifice channel 60 to communicate with each other so as not to overlap the openings 60 </ b> C and 60 </ b> D, that is, when viewed from the axial direction X. Prepare. The communication holes 76 are juxtaposed at a plurality of locations on the circumference surrounding the plug portion 66C located at the center of the membrane portion 66B. In this example, four circular communication holes 76 are provided at equal intervals. It has been. The communication hole 76 passes through the communication hole 76 in the state where the membrane portion 66B is separated from the openings 60C and 60D, that is, the plug portion 66C opens these openings (see FIG. 3). The liquid flows therein, and the second orifice channel 60 is thereby opened. The opening area of the communication hole 76 is set to be larger than the cross-sectional area of the second orifice channel 60, that is, the area of the openings 60 </ b> C and 60 </ b> D so that the throttling effect is not exhibited in the communication hole 76. .

  The membrane portion 66B is compressed between the opposing wall surfaces 68A and 68B of the valve accommodating chamber 68 by the membrane portion 66B being bent and deformed on the membrane surface at a position not overlapping the openings 60C and 60D. A plurality of projections 78 are provided. As shown in FIG. 4, the protrusion 78 has a conical shape, in this example, a conical shape, and is provided alternately with the communication hole 76 on the same circumference as the communication hole 76. Further, the protrusions 78 project from the upper and lower film surfaces of the film part 66B and are formed vertically symmetrical.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the upper and lower wall surfaces 68 </ b> A and 68 </ b> B of the valve storage chamber 68 are in contact with the inner peripheral surface 66 </ b> A <b> 1 (see FIG. 4C) of the thick outer peripheral portion 66 </ b> A of the valve member 66. A ring-shaped restricting protrusion 80 for restricting the inward displacement of the portion 66A is provided. That is, as shown in FIG. 5A and FIG. 6, the restricting protrusion 80 is formed so as to protrude vertically from the bottom surface of the stepped recess 70 and the lower surface of the lid member 72.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the peripheral edge portions of the openings 60 </ b> C and 60 </ b> D are provided as annular convex portions 82 projecting in the axial direction X (see FIGS. 5 and 6). It is formed so as to protrude toward the film portion 66B side with respect to 68A and 68B.

  In the liquid-filled vibration isolator 10 having the above-described configuration, the flow of liquid in the second orifice channel 60 is small when vibration on the high frequency side with a relatively small amplitude is input, such as during idling when the vehicle is stopped. The membrane portion 66B of the valve member 66 is hardly bent and deformed. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 7A, the second orifice channel 60 is not blocked by the valve member 66, and the liquid in the second orifice channel 60 flows through the communication hole 76 provided in the valve member 66. It is possible to move between the main liquid chamber 42 and the second sub liquid chamber 52. Therefore, an excellent vibration-proofing effect against idle vibration is exhibited by the resonance action of the liquid through the second orifice channel 60 on the high frequency side.

  On the other hand, when a vibration having a relatively large amplitude and a low frequency, such as a shake vibration, is input during traveling of the vehicle, the flow of the liquid in the second orifice channel 60 becomes large, and the liquid flow causes the membrane of the valve member 66 to flow. When the portion 66B is pressed in the flow direction X, it is bent and deformed. Thereby, as shown in FIG.7 (b), the 2nd orifice flow path 60 is obstruct | occluded by the film | membrane part 66B. For this reason, the liquid moves between the main liquid chamber 42 and the first sub liquid chamber 44 only through the first orifice channel 56 on the low frequency side, so that the resonance action of the liquid flowing through the first orifice channel 56 is achieved. Based on this, high damping performance is exhibited against shake vibration.

  As described above, the liquid-filled vibration isolator 10 has a structure in which the second orifice channel 60 is closed by the bending deformation of the valve member 66 made of a rubber elastic film, and thus the liquid flow to the valve member 66 is small. When this happens, the second orifice channel 60 can be returned to the open state by the restoring force of the valve member 66. Therefore, it is possible to switch the characteristics of the two orifice channels 56 and 60 without separately providing a biasing means such as a spring, and to provide a switchable liquid-filled vibration isolator with an inexpensive and compact structure. Can do.

  Further, as described above, the projection 78 is provided on the membrane portion 66B of the valve member 66. When the membrane portion 66B is bent and deformed, as shown in FIG. It compresses between 68 wall surfaces 68A and 68B. The repulsive force of the compressed protrusion 78 makes it possible to increase the restoring force of the valve member 66 after the bending deformation, so that the return of the valve member 66 after the bending deformation can be made more reliable, and the second orifice. The channel 60 can be reliably and smoothly opened.

  Further, even when the valve member 66 is bent and deformed, as shown in FIG. 7B, the displacement of the film portion 66 </ b> B around the protrusion 78 is suppressed, and the valve member 66 when the second orifice channel 60 is closed. And the contact area between the wall surfaces 68A and 68B of the valve storage chamber 68 can be reduced. Therefore, an effect can be exhibited in reducing abnormal noise caused by the collision between the valve member 66 and the wall surfaces 68A and 68B.

  Further, in the above embodiment, the valve member 66 is provided with a plurality of communication holes 76 and projections 78 alternately on the same circumference, so that the restoring force of the valve member 66 after bending deformation can be increased, and the wall surface 68A. , 68B is also excellent in noise reduction effect due to the reduction of the contact area.

  Further, since the restricting projections 80 are provided on the upper and lower wall surfaces 68A, 68B of the valve accommodating chamber 68, when the valve member 66 is bent and deformed, the restricting projections 80 abut on the inner peripheral surface of the outer peripheral portion 66A of the valve member 66. Since the inward displacement of the lever is restricted, the valve member 66 is not easily displaced inward in the radial direction (is difficult to move), and the performance of the valve member 66 can be maintained.

  Further, since the annular convex portion 82 is provided at the peripheral edge portion of the openings 60C and 60D in the wall surfaces 68A and 68B of the valve accommodating chamber 68, the annular convex portion 82 allows the clearance between the plug portion 66C and the openings 60C and 60D to close it. Can be easily adjusted, and it is easy to adjust a region (input amplitude or the like) where the second orifice channel 60 is closed. Further, by providing the annular convex portion 82, the stroke until the plug portion 66C closes the openings 60C and 60D can be reduced, the impact at the time of contact can be reduced, and the presence of the annular convex portion 82 can reduce the valve. By reducing the contact area between the member 60 and the wall surfaces 68A and 68B, it is possible to reduce the abnormal sound level.

  FIG. 8 is a graph showing the anti-vibration characteristics of the liquid-filled vibration isolator 10 according to the above-described embodiment. As a comparative example, the valve member 66 is omitted and the other liquid-filled vibration-proof vibration having the same orifice configuration as in the embodiment. The characteristics of the device are also shown.

  As shown in FIG. 8A, at a relatively small amplitude (± 0.05 mm), the characteristics of the embodiment (storage spring constant Kd and damping coefficient C) and the characteristics of the comparative example (storage spring constant Kd ′ and The damping coefficient C ′) was the same. However, as shown in FIG. 8B, at a relatively large amplitude (± 0.5 mm), the characteristic (Kd ′, C ′) of the comparative example represented by a thin line is the characteristic ( As for Kd, C), a higher attenuation performance C was secured on the low frequency side.

  FIG. 9 shows (a) pressure fluctuation in the main liquid chamber 42 and (b) high-frequency orifice (second orifice) at a relatively large amplitude (± 0.5 mm) for the liquid-filled vibration isolator 10 of the above embodiment. It is a graph which shows the relationship with the frequency of the liquid flow in the flow path 60).

  The pressure fluctuation in the main liquid chamber 42 can be equated with the pressure difference between the main liquid chamber 42 and the second sub liquid chamber 52. As shown in FIG. 9A, in the embodiment, it exceeds 15 Hz. The fluid pressure fluctuation was the maximum near, and the pressure fluctuation was smaller on the lower frequency side. On the other hand, as for the liquid flow in the second orifice channel 60, a large liquid flow occurred at 7 Hz as shown in FIG. 9B. Therefore, the switching characteristics of the orifice at a lower frequency is achieved in the present embodiment that is operated by the liquid flow in the second orifice channel than in the case of operating by the pressure difference between the liquid chambers as in Patent Document 2. Can be expected. That is, since the liquid flow becomes more active from the lower frequency range than the pressure difference when the second orifice flow path 60 is operated by the liquid flow like the valve member 66 of the present embodiment, the second orifice at a lower frequency. The flow path 60 can be closed, which is advantageous for attenuation of shake vibration in a low frequency range.

  In the above embodiment, the annular convex portion 82 is provided around the openings 60C and 60D of the valve accommodating chamber 68. However, in the present invention, the annular convex portion is not essential, and as shown in FIG. You may comprise without providing.

  Further, the arrangement, number, and shape of the communication holes 76 and the protrusions 78 provided in the valve member 66 are not limited to the above-described embodiment, and various changes can be made. For example, the protrusions 78 are provided on the upper and lower surfaces of the film portion 66B in the above embodiment, but may be provided on only one of the surfaces.

  In the above embodiment, the second sub liquid chamber 52 is provided, and the second orifice channel 60 is provided in communication with the main liquid chamber 42 and the second sub liquid chamber 52. However, the first sub liquid chamber is the first sub liquid chamber. The same applies to the case where only the secondary liquid chamber 44 is provided, and the second orifice channel 60 is provided in the same manner as the first orifice channel 56 in such a manner that the main liquid chamber 42 and the first secondary liquid chamber 44 communicate with each other. can do.

  Furthermore, in the above-described embodiment, the second sub liquid chamber 52 is provided on the first sub liquid chamber 44 side of the partition body 40, and the second orifice channel 60 is connected to the main liquid chamber 42 and the second sub liquid chamber 52. Instead of this, the second sub-liquid chamber is provided on the main liquid chamber side of the partition, and the second diaphragm is separated from the main liquid chamber by the second diaphragm. The second sub liquid chamber and the first sub liquid chamber may be configured to communicate with each other. In this case, the second orifice channel has a first channel portion that extends in the thickness direction of the partition body and opens to the first sub-liquid chamber side, and a second channel portion that extends around the second sub-liquid chamber.
