Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a vibration isolator.
  • vibration isolators have been developed for suppressing vibrations and transmission of engines provided in automobiles and the like.
  • a vibration isolator generally referred to as an engine mount has a function of supporting and fixing an engine provided in an automobile or the like to a vehicle body frame and preventing vibrations of the engine from being transmitted to the vehicle body frame side.
  • a vibration isolator similar to a dynamic vibration absorber has an effect of suppressing vibration by an engine by absorbing vibration of a predetermined frequency using resonance of a mass body.
  • These vibration isolators include an elastic member that elastically connects between a vibrating body such as an engine or a mass body and a support body that supports the vibrating body such as a vehicle body frame.
  • the elastic member provided in the vibration isolator has a small ratio between the dynamic spring constant and the static spring constant, has excellent vibration isolation characteristics over a wide range of vibration frequencies, and exhibits good vibration isolation over a wide temperature range. It is desirable to have durability that can withstand vibration. Therefore, as a material for the elastic member of the vibration isolator, it is common to use a rubber material that has these characteristics and is classified as a so-called “diene type” represented by natural rubber.
  • Diene rubber which is used as a material for elastic members, has the property of being easily deteriorated by heat. In the practical environment of the vibration isolator, it deteriorates relatively early due to the action of oxygen in the air. In general, it is known to be hard and brittle. When the elastic member is hardened or embrittled in this way, the spring constant increases and the vibration isolation characteristics deteriorate or the durability deteriorates. In particular, in recent years, the environment in which anti-vibration devices are used has become smaller due to the downsizing of the engine room, a reduction in the wind flow in the engine room due to aerodynamic improvements, and increased demand for merchandise in emerging regions that are often high temperature environments. Tend to be harsh.

Then, due to this differential pressure, oxygen in the outside air continuously enters from the outside air side where the oxygen partial pressure is high to the sealed space side where the oxygen partial pressure is low while passing through the oxygen blocking film. Therefore, even if an inert gas such as nitrogen gas is sealed in the sealed space when the vibration isolator is manufactured, oxygen may gradually enter the sealed space in a high temperature environment where the vibration isolator is actually used.

Abstract

La présente invention concerne un dispositif anti-vibrations permettant de minimiser la détérioration d'un élément élastique destiné à relier un corps de support et un corps vibrant, et permettant aux caractéristiques de ressort de ne varier que peu dans le temps. Un dispositif anti-vibrations (un support de moteur (1)) est doté : d'un élément élastique (30) destiné à relier un corps de support (par exemple, un châssis de corps ou analogue auquel un élément de fixation côté carrosserie (10) est fixé) et un corps vibrant (par exemple, un moteur ou analogue auquel un élément de fixation côté moteur (20) est fixé), l'élément élastique (30) ayant un caoutchouc à base de diène comme composant primaire; d'un élément de blocage d'air extérieur (40) destiné à couvrir l'élément élastique (30) et à empêcher le contact entre l'élément élastique (30) et l'air extérieur; et d'un corps d'absorption de gaz (60) scellé dans un espace étanche (50A) qui est cloisonné par l'élément de blocage d'air extérieur (40), le corps d'absorption de gaz (60) comprenant une substance qui absorbe le gaz produit par la détérioration thermique de l'élément élastique (30), et comprenant une substance qui ne produit pas de dioxyde de carbone et/ou un composé de soufre du fait de la détérioration thermique du corps d'absorption de gaz (60) lui-même.
