Abstract
This vibration-damping device is configured such that an outer mounting member (11), an inner mounting member (12), or a partition member (16) has formed therein: a first restriction passage (23) for providing communication between a fourth liquid chamber (21) and a second liquid chamber (15) or a third liquid chamber (20); and a second restriction passage (24) for providing communication between the second liquid chamber (15) and the third liquid chamber (20). The flow resistance of the first restriction passage (23) and that of the second restriction passage (24) are different.
Claims6
A vibration-damping device, comprising:
- a cylindrical outer mounting member which is connected to either one of a vibration-generating portion or a vibration-receiving portion and an inner mounting member which is connected to the other of the vibration-generating portion and the vibration-receiving portion and is disposed inside the outer mounting member;
- a pair of first main body rubbers which connect the outer mounting member and the inner mounting member and are disposed at an interval in an axial direction along a central axis of the outer mounting member;
- a partition member which partitions a liquid chamber between the pair of first main body rubbers into a first liquid chamber and a second liquid chamber in the axial direction;
- and
- a second main body rubber which divides the first liquid chamber into a third liquid chamber that uses the first main body rubbers as a part of a partition wall and a fourth liquid chamber that uses the partition member as a part of a partition wall,
- wherein a first restriction passage which communicates the fourth liquid chamber with the second liquid chamber or the third liquid chamber and a second restriction passage which communicates the second liquid chamber with the third liquid chamber are formed in the outer mounting member, the inner mounting member, or the partition member,
- respective flow resistances of the first restriction passage and the second restriction passage are different from each other, and
- the axial direction is directed in a vertical direction.
