Abstract
An engine mount includes a nozzle assembly for partitioning a fluid-filled space into an upper fluid chamber and a lower fluid chamber, wherein the nozzle assembly includes a first flow path to dampen vibrations with a first amplitude and a second flow path to dampen vibrations with a second amplitude greater than the first amplitude, so that the vibrations delivered from an engine can be efficiently reduced.
Claims8
An engine mount comprising:
- a nozzle assembly partitioning a space filled with a fluid into an upper fluid chamber and a lower fluid chamber,
- wherein the nozzle assembly comprises:
- a first fluid path to dampen vibrations with a first amplitude;
- a second fluid path to dampen vibrations with a second amplitude greater than the first amplitude;
- and
- an install tube installed by passing through the nozzle assembly in a vertical direction,
- wherein the first fluid path comprises a venturi tube installed in the install tube,
- wherein the venturi tube comprises a constriction part that is made of an elastically deformable material and is constricted according to a velocity of the fluid passing through the venturi tube, and
- wherein a space between the venture tube and the install tube is filled with air.
