Abstract
A ring for fitting to a resilient support containing two metal cores interconnected by a piece of elastomer, the ring serving to limit the extent to which the cores can be moved apart accidentally. The ring is rectangular in section and is made up of a succession of alternating layers respectively constituted by tapes of elastically deformable material and by sheets of parallel threads that are strong in traction.
Claims6
An anti vibration hydraulic support for interposition with a vehicle chassis and an internal combustion engine, said support comprising a top metal core having two bolts, a bottom metal core having two bolts, a cylindrical wall of elastomer circumferentially surrounding and interconnecting said top and bottom metal cores, a supporting ring surrounding said metal cores in a direction transverse to said wall of elastomer, said supporting ring comprises of alternating layers of a tape of an elastically deformable material and sheet of parallel threads.
