Vibration-damping mounting

Abstract

A vibration-damping mounting for a motor on a support comprises a holding means at the motor side and a receiving means arranged at the support. An elastic element which has a cavity therein is arranged between the holding means and the receiving means. The cavity of the element is closed at its end portion towards the receiving means and that end portion is held in positively locking relationship in a holder socket of the support.

1 . A vibration-damping mounting for mounting a motor on a support comprising: 
 a holding means at the motor side,    a receiving means arranged at the support and including a holder socket,    an elastic element having a cavity therein and arranged between the holding means and the receiving means, the elastic element having an end portion which in the assembled condition of the mounting is towards the receiving means and the cavity of the element being closed at said end portion, and    means for holding said end portion of the element in positively locking relationship in the holder socket of the support.    
   
   
       2 . A mounting as set forth in  claim 1   wherein the configuration of the end portion corresponds at least in portion-wise manner to the inner shape of the holder socket.    
   
   
       3 . A mounting as set forth in  claim 2   wherein the inner shape of the holder socket is cylindrical.    
   
   
       4 . A mounting as set forth in  claim 1   wherein said element has a further portion that is towards the motor side,    and comprising    a first positively locking securing means arranged at said further portion of the element,    a first supporting means for the holding means, and    a second positively locking securing means in the form of a groove in the wall of the element.    
   
   
       5 . A mounting as set forth in  claim 4   wherein said groove has a side wall forming a supporting means for the support.    
   
   
       6 . A mounting as set forth in claim.  1   wherein said the end portion of said element is of a smaller cross-section than the remaining main portion of the element.    
   
   
       7 . A mounting as set forth in  claim 4   wherein the receiving means on the support has at least one support mounting means.    
   
   
       8 . A mounting as set forth in  claim 7   wherein the support mounting means is arranged at the holder socket and engages into the groove.    
   
   
       9 . A mounting as set forth in  claim 7   wherein the groove is in the form of an annular groove and the support mounting means has at least one circular rib.    
   
   
       10 . A mounting as set forth in  claim 1   wherein the respective end portions of the element are formed with a taper.    
   
   
       11 . A mounting as set forth in  claim 1   wherein the cavity of said element extends from the main portion thereof into said end portion.    
   
   
       12 . A mounting as set forth in  claim 1   wherein the holding means has a slot adapted to permit said element to be inserted from the side into the holding means.    
   
   
       13 . An assembly comprising a support and a vibration-damping mounting for mounting a motor to said support, comprising 
 a holder socket on said support,    a holding means for carrying a said motor,    an elastic element having a cavity therein and having first and second end portions, a first end portion in the assembled condition of the mounting to the support being towards said holder socket and the cavity being closed at said first end portion, and    means for holding said first end portion of said elastic element in positively locking relationship in said holder socket of the support,    the arrangement being such that the elastic element which is held to said holder socket in positively locking relationship therewith is operatively disposed between said holding means and said holder socket.
