Movement limiting anti-vibration assembly

An anti-vibration assembly including:

• a vehicle powertrain;
• a rigid bracket fixed to the vehicle powertrain and extending from the vehicle powertrain up to a free end;
• a vehicle body;
• and an anti-vibration mount connecting said vehicle powertrain and said vehicle body for the purposes of shock absorption and support, said anti-vibration mount including:
• a first rigid mounting member having a substantially tubular form, in which the bracket is received, said bracket including an intermediate portion close to the vehicle powertrain and an inserted portion which is close to the free end of the bracket and is fitted in said first mounting member;
• a second rigid mounting member fixed to the vehicle body;
• an elastomer body connecting the first mounting member to the second mounting member and capable of supporting a static load applied to the first mounting member in a first, substantially vertical direction and of allowing relative movements between the first and second mounting members at least in the first direction and in second and third directions, wherein the first, second and third directions are substantially perpendicular to each other;
• a rigid strap including at least two legs and a top joining the two legs, said two legs having respective fixing tabs which extend opposite to one another and which are fixed to the vehicle body, said first mounting member being disposed underneath the top of the strap and being capable of cooperating by abutment with said top of the strap in the first direction upwards, and said first mounting member being disposed between the two legs of the strap and being capable of cooperating by abutment with said two legs in the second direction, said two legs and top extending in the third direction between a fore rim and a rear rim,
• wherein the second mounting member is fitted in the two legs of the strap in the first direction upwards and is pressed by said two legs directly on the vehicle body in said first direction, the second mounting member being immobilized by said two legs in said first, second and third directions on the vehicle body,
• and the strap further includes a bridge portion joining the rear rims of the two legs at a distance under the intermediate portion of the bracket, said bridge being adapted to cooperate by abutment with the intermediate portion of the bracket in the first direction downwards.
