Patent ID: 8534649

Claim:
A vehicle damper mount structure in which a damper comprises a damper body and a piston rod and the piston rod is supported at an end portion by a vehicle-body-side member, characterized in that said vehicle damper mount structure comprises: the piston rod having a reduced-diameter section having a smaller outer diameter than a remaining section of the piston rod, and a male thread section formed on a distal end portion of the reduced-diameter section; upper and lower elastic sections threaded over the reduced-diameter section and sandwiching therebetween the vehicle-body-side member; a collar member threaded over the reduced-diameter section and extending through the upper and lower elastic sections to thereby define a tightening margin of the upper and lower elastic sections; upper and lower sandwiching members threaded over the reduced-diameter section and sandwiching therebetween the upper and lower elastic sections from outside; a fastening member screwed on the male screw section to collectively fasten the upper and lower sandwiching members, the collar member and the upper and lower elastic sections to the reduced-diameter section; and a transmission member, provided concentrically with the piston rod in such a manner as to astride over the lower elastic section axially of the piston rod, for transmitting an input from the damper body to the vehicle-body-side member without compressing the lower elastic section to above a predetermined value; and a restraining section, provided to the vehicle-body-side member, for restraining movement of the transmission member owing to a load transmitted from the transmission member in an axial direction of the damper and in a direction normal to the axial direction.
