Abstract
A material adapted to regulate vibration by distributing and partially dissipating vibration exerted thereon. The material includes an elastomer layer. A support structure is penetrated by and is embedded on and/or within the elastomer layer. The support structure is semi-rigid and supports the elastomer layer. Methods of making the material are also disclosed herein.
Claims23
A material adapted to regulate vibration by distributing and partially dissipating vibration exerted thereon, the material comprising:
- an elastomer layer having a first plurality of fibers therein;
- and
- a support structure penetrated by and embedded on and/or within the elastomer layer, the support structure being semi-rigid and supporting the elastomer layer.
A material adapted to regulate vibration by distributing and partially dissipating vibration exerted thereon, the material comprising:
- an elastomer layer;
- and
- a support structure penetrated by and embedded on and/or within the elastomer layer, the support structure being formed of a second elastomer having a higher durometer than the elastomer layer such that the support structure is semi-rigid and supporting the elastomer layer.
A material adapted to regulate vibration by distributing and partially dissipating vibration exerted thereon, the material comprising:
- an elastomer layer;
- and
- a support structure located on the elastomer layer, the support structure being semi-rigid and supporting the elastomer layer.
