Patent ID: 6916016

Claim:
A method of manufacturing a fluid-filled vibration-damping device comprising the steps of: connecting a first mounting member and a second mounting member via an elastic body; providing a fluid-filled zone partially defined by said elastic body and filled with non-compressible fluid; preparing at least one sealing part of said fluid-filled zone by fitting a first sealing member of cylindrical configuration externally about a second sealing member with said first and second sealing members fluid-tightly fixed to each other by fitting a first annular fixing projection formed on one of an inner circumferential surface of said first sealing member and an outer circumferential surface of said second mounting member into a first annular fixing recess formed onto an other one of said inner circumferential surface of said first sealing member and said outer circumferential surface of said second mounting member; forming a plurality of drain passages at respective circumferential locations on said first annular fixing recess in order to expose a floor of said first annular fixing recess to an outside, and said plurality of drain passages are remotely located from said sealing part; and blowing compressed air in through at least one of said plurality of drain passages so as to forcedly discharge said non-compressible fluid remained on said floor of said first annular fixing recess to said outside.
