ABSTRACT:
A fluid filled elastomeric damping device has a diaphragm enclosing a working chamber and a diaphragm restraining mechanism for selectively restraining and freeing movement of the diaphragm and thereby varying a damping or operational characteristic of the device. The mechanism includes a pressing plate for pressing a blocking portion of the diaphragm against a seating surface of an outer casing member under a bias of a blocking force generating member and thereby rigidly closing a compensation passage communicating with the working chamber. The diaphragm is restrained in movement by the pressing plate when the solenoid is de-energized and freed in movement when the solenoid is energized.
