Abstract

L'invention concerne un appareil tampon ayant des propriétés d'amortissement supérieur stable contre les vibrations et un capot métallique qui est monté en utilisant l'appareil tampon. Un appareil tampon (31) est disposé entre un bossage de boulon (34) installé sur un collecteur d'échappement (1) qui est une source de vibrations et un isolant thermique (3) auquel l'appareil tampon (31) doit être raccordé. L'appareil tampon (31) raccorde le bossage de boulon (34) installé sur le collecteur d'échappement (1) et l'isolant thermique (3), et amortit la propagation des vibrations en provenance du bossage de boulon (34) installé sur le collecteur d'échappement (1) et allant à l'isolant thermique (3). L'appareil tampon (31) comporte un ressort hélicoïdal (32) qui amortit les vibrations, un joint d'étanchéité (33) qui joint le ressort hélicoïdal (32) et l'isolant thermique (3), et un organe collier (39) positionné entre un boulon de montage (6), qui s’attache au bossage de boulon (34) installé sur le collecteur d'échappement (1), et le ressort hélicoïdal (32), et le ressort hélicoïdal (32) est constitué d'un fil en forme de spire.
