Abstract

A hydraulic mount for a vehicle includes: a core bush coupled to a bolt; a main rubber formed on an outer surface of the core bush; an orifice portion coupled to a lower portion of the main rubber so as to divide an upper fluid chamber and a lower fluid chamber, the orifice portion including a lower plate and an upper plate; and a membrane mounted between the lower plate and the upper plate. A fluid path is formed on an upper surface portion of the lower plate, a lower inlet and outlet port is formed on a predetermined position of the fluid path, an upper inlet and outlet port communicating with the fluid path is formed on the upper plate, a concave groove portion and a fixing end are repeatedly and uniformly formed along a circumference of the upper plate so as to cover the fluid path on the lower plate and be coupled thereto, and the membrane is exposed through the concave groove portion.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A hydraulic mount for a vehicle, comprising:
a core bush coupled to a bolt;
a main rubber formed on an outer surface of the core bush;
an orifice portion coupled to a lower portion of the main rubber so as to divide an upper fluid chamber and a lower fluid chamber, the orifice portion including a lower plate and an upper plate; and
a membrane mounted between the lower plate and the upper plate, wherein
a fluid path is formed on an upper surface portion of the lower plate,
a lower inlet and outlet port is formed on a predetermined position of the fluid path,
an upper inlet and outlet port communicating with the fluid path is formed on the upper plate,
a concave groove portion and a fixing end are repeatedly and uniformly formed on an inner circumferential surface along a circumference of the upper plate so as to cover the fluid path on the lower plate and be coupled thereto, and
the membrane is completely exposed through the concave groove portion,
wherein the upper plate has a ring-shaped plate body so that the membrane is completely exposed toward an upper fluid chamber side, and
wherein the concave groove portion for increasing an upper exposed area of the membrane is concavely formed toward the outer diameter direction of the upper plate.

2. The hydraulic mount for the vehicle of claim 1 , wherein eight concave groove portions, in total, are formed at a 45 degree interval along the circumference of the upper plate.

3. The hydraulic mount for the vehicle of claim 1 ,
wherein an upper surface of an outer circumference of the membrane is formed with a stepwise-type step portion for line-contact with a lower surface of the fixing end of the upper plate; and a lower surface of the outer circumference of the membrane is also formed with a stepwise-type step portion for line-contact with the lower plate.

4. The hydraulic mount for the vehicle of claim 3 ,
wherein the lower surface of the fixing end of the upper plate is formed as an inclined surface for the line-contact with the membrane.

5. The hydraulic mount for the vehicle of claim 3 ,
wherein an inner circumference of the lower plate is formed as an inclined surface for line-contact with the membrane.

6. The hydraulic mount for the vehicle of claim 1 ,
wherein an inner circumference of the lower plate is formed integrally with a membrane stopper in which a fluid-through hole is formed.
