20090178892 | Method and Device for Damping Vibrations - The invention relates to a method for damping vibrations on chassis bearings of motor vehicles, and a device for implementing the process. A process and a device are to be presented with which outstanding vibration damping and vibration isolation and noise insulation can be achieved over a wide frequency range with consideration of the driving states and roadway conditions which occur in motor vehicles. For this purpose it is proposed that the driving state of the motor vehicle and/or the roadway conditions are detected by way of sensors and that the at least one chassis bearing is modified to different characteristics to change its stiffness and/or damping depending on the detected parameters. The device is formed with sensors for detecting the driving state of the motor vehicle and for roadway conditions, with an electronic control device for processing the acquired signals and for selection of various controllable characteristics and at least one chassis bearing, the stiffness and/or damping of which can be modified. | 07-16-2009 |

20130300042 | SPRING AND DAMPER SYSTEM, IN PARTICULAR FOR AN ASSEMBLY MOUNT IN A MOTOR VEHICLE - A spring and damper system, in particular for an assembly mount in a motor vehicle, includes a spring/damper element arranged between two mutually, relatively displaceable vehicle masses, wherein the spring/damper element includes a damper device and a positioning spring element, which are directly or indirectly coupled with one another and are connected in series and which are supported on or attached to a respective vehicle mass. A progressive spring element forms an additional component of the spring/damper element, wherein the progressive spring element is arranged on a side of the positioning spring element facing away from the damper device and is directly or indirectly connected to the damper device or to the vehicle mass facing the positioning spring element. The progressive spring element has a defined gap spacing representing a spring deflection in a defined rest position. | 11-14-2013 |
20150211598 | HYDRAULICALLY DAMPING BUSH BEARING - A hydraulically damping bush bearing has an elongated inner part, and outer bush, an elastomeric damping member disposed between the inner part and outer bush and a pair of axial chambers offset from one another in an axial direction. The axial chambers communicate with one another via at least one axial channel. The bush bearing also has a pair of radial chambers that communicate via at least one radial channel. The radial chambers are disposed between the pair of axial chambers and are offset from each other in a circumferential direction. One of the pair of axial chambers has at least two separated first axial chambers spaced at a distance from one another in the circumferential direction. | 07-30-2015 |
20150226258 | SLEEVE BEARING - A sleeve bearing for being received in an outer sleeve includes an inner part which extends in the axial direction, a bearing body, and a cage which encloses the bearing body circumferentially. The bearing body encloses the inner part, is made from an elastic material, and has at least two chambers. The cage is formed from at least two cage parts, the spacing of which can be varied in the radial direction. A sealed joint area is provided between the cage parts. | 08-13-2015 |
20150226285 | HYDRAULICALLY DAMPING BUSH BEARING - A hydraulically damping bush bearing has an elongated inner part, and outer bush, an elastomeric damping member disposed between the inner part and outer bush and a pair of axial chambers offset from one another in an axial direction. The axial chambers communicate with one another via at least one axial channel. The bush bearing also has a pair of radial chambers that communicate via at least one radial channel. The radial chambers are disposed between the pair of axial chambers and are offset from each other in a circumferential direction. At least fluid-free damping chamber is provided between the axial. | 08-13-2015 |
20150252842 | RUBBER-METAL SLEEVE BEARING - A rubber-metal sleeve bearing includes an inner sleeve, an outer sleeve disposed in concentric relationship to the inner sleeve, and an intermediate sleeve disposed in concentric relationship to the inner and outer sleeves and having first and second elastomer layers to connect the intermediate sleeve to the inner and outer sleeves, respectively. The intermediate sleeve has inner and outer surfaces, each having at least one non-round section, with the non-round section of the inner surface and the non-round section of the outer surface being arranged in offset relationship in a circumferential direction. | 09-10-2015 |
