Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A vibration-damping device ( 1 ) of the present invention includes a tubular first attachment member ( 11 ), a second attachment member ( 12 ) that is attached to any one of a vibration generating portion and a vibration receiving portion, an elastic body ( 13 ) that connects the first attachment member and the second attachment member with each other, and a bracket (B) that is connected to the remaining one of the vibration generating portion and the vibration receiving portion and is press-fitted into the first attachment member. The second attachment member includes a stopper wall portion ( 14 ) which surrounds the first attachment member from radially outside. A penetration hole ( 11 b ) which is open toward the stopper wall portion is formed in the first attachment member, and a stopper elastic body ( 19 ) covering the penetration hole is installed on an inner circumferential surface of the first attachment member. The stopper elastic body is elastically deformed by the bracket and protrudes to an outer circumferential surface side of the first attachment member through the penetration hole.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1 . A vibration-damping device comprising: a tubular first attachment member; a second attachment member that is attached to any one of a vibration generating portion and a vibration receiving portion; an elastic body that connects the first attachment member and the second attachment member with each other; and a bracket that is connected to the remaining one of the vibration generating portion and the vibration receiving portion and is press-fitted into the first attachment member, wherein the second attachment member includes a stopper wall portion which surrounds the first attachment member from radially outside, wherein a penetration hole which is open toward the stopper wall portion is formed in the first attachment member, and a stopper elastic body covering the penetration hole is installed on an inner circumferential surface of the first attachment member, and wherein the stopper elastic body is elastically deformed by the bracket and protrudes to an outer circumferential surface side of the first attachment member through the penetration hole. 2 . The vibration-damping device according to claim 1 , wherein in the stopper elastic body, a recess portion is formed in a part positioned at a part in which no penetration hole is formed on the inner circumferential surface of the first attachment member.
