Patent ID: 8485491

Claim:
An anti-vibration mount intended to connect first and second vehicle components for the purposes of shock absorption and support, comprising: a first mounting member comprising: a head defining a first portion of a channel; and a connector intended to be fixed to the first vehicle component, the connector fixed to said head by a connection configured to permit a degree of relative positioning tolerance between said head and said connector at least in a first direction, said connector including: an upper end part defining a second portion of the channel, the upper end part extending longitudinally in a second direction substantially perpendicular to the first direction; and a thrust face substantially perpendicular to the upper end part, the thrust face intersecting the upper end part, a second mounting member configured to be fixed to the second vehicle component, an elastomer body connecting the head of the first mounting member to the second mounting member and configured to support a static load applied to the first mounting member in said second direction and configured to allow relative movements between the first and second mounting members at least in the first and second directions, said second mounting member configured to cooperate by abutment with the first mounting member in the first direction, wherein the head comprises a deformable stop that is interposed between the second mounting member and the connector in the first direction, the stop and the thrust face of the connector defining a gap extending in the second direction, the deformable stop configured to not obstruct the relative positioning tolerance between the head of the first mounting member and the connector, and said deformable stop configured to abut against the second mounting member by pressing against the connector in order to limit the relative movements between the first and second mounting members in said first direction, wherein further the thrust face is disposed outside of the elastomer body.
