MOTOR MOUNT DEVICE FOR AN ELECTRIC VEHICLE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18131734 titled 'MOTOR MOUNT DEVICE FOR AN ELECTRIC VEHICLE

Simplified Explanation

The motor mount device for an electric vehicle described in the abstract includes an inner pipe, an outer pipe, a main damper with a bridge, and a middle plate. The main damper is elastically deformable and the middle plate supports a load transmitted through the inner pipe.

  • Inner pipe and outer pipe are coaxially disposed along the front-rear direction of the vehicle.
  • Main damper with a bridge creates upper and lower chambers between the inner and outer pipes.
  • Middle plate supports a load in the front-rear direction by compressing the bridge.

Original Abstract Submitted

A motor mount device for an electric vehicle includes an inner pipe disposed along a front-rear direction of the vehicle, an outer pipe disposed coaxially with and around an outside of the inner pipe, and a main damper with a bridge. The bridge defines an upper chamber and a lower chamber between the inner pipe and the outer pipe along the front-rear direction and the main damper is elastically deformable according to a load transmitted through the inner pipe. The device also includes a middle plate disposed between the main damper and the outer pipe and configured to support a load in the front-rear direction transmitted through the inner pipe by compressing the bridge.
