ANTI-VIBRATION DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18326074 titled 'ANTI-VIBRATION DEVICE

Simplified Explanation

The anti-vibration device described in the patent application is designed to inhibit the transmission of vibration from a source to a transmission portion. It consists of three elastically deformed portions - a first portion vibrating in a first thickness direction, a second portion vibrating in a second thickness direction intersecting the first direction, and a third portion vibrating in a third thickness direction intersecting the first and second directions.

  • First elastically deformed portion: A plate vibrating in a first thickness direction to transmit vibration.
  • Second elastically deformed portion: A plate vibrating in a second thickness direction intersecting the first direction to transmit vibration.
  • Third elastically deformed portion: A plate vibrating in a third thickness direction intersecting the first and second directions to transmit vibration.

Original Abstract Submitted

An anti-vibration device is secured to a vibration source and a vibration transmission portion to inhibit transmission of vibration, and includes a first elastically deformed portion, a second elastically deformed portion and a third elastically deformed portion. The first elastically deformed portion is a plate having a thickness in a first thickness direction and vibrates in the first thickness direction to configure a path for the vibration to be transmitted from the vibration source to the vibration transmission portion. The second elastically deformed portion is a plate having a thickness in a second thickness direction intersecting the first thickness direction and vibrates in the second thickness direction to configure the path. The third elastically deformed portion is a plate having a thickness in a third thickness direction intersecting the first thickness direction and the second thickness direction and vibrates in the third thickness direction to configure the path.
