Abstract

L'invention concerne un élément d'amortissement (44) conçu pour amortir une vibration transmise entre un injecteur (30) et une culasse (16) d'un moteur à combustion interne (10). Cet élément d'amortissement (44) présente un corps de base (46) sensiblement en forme de disque annulaire, ainsi qu'au moins une première section de contact (48a, 48b) reliée de manière fixe au corps de base (46) et faisant saillie par rapport au corps de base (46) dans une première direction axiale (R_1) et une seconde section de contact (50) reliée de manière fixe au corps de base (46) et faisant saillie par rapport au corps de base (46) dans une seconde direction axiale (R_2) opposée à la première. La distance radiale (A_11, A_12) entre la première section de contact (48a, 48b) et l'axe longitudinal (L) est différente de la distance radiale (A_2) entre la seconde section de contact (50) et l'axe longitudinal (L).
