ABSTRACT:
A shock and vibration absorbing mounting includes a first retainer member and a second retainer member. These retainer members are mutually coupled together and are spaced apart from one another, and have respective first and second surfaces which oppose one another. A third retainer member is located between the first and second retainer members, and has a third surface which opposes the first surface of the first retainer member and a fourth surface which opposes the second surface of the second retainer member. A first resilient member is provided between the first surface of the first retainer member and the third surface of the third retainer member, and a substantial amount of play is left between the first and the third surfaces of the first and third retainer members. And a second resilient member is provided between the second surface of the second retainer member and the fourth surface of the third retainer member, substantially continuous therebetween with substantially no play being left between the second and the fourth surfaces of the second and third retainer members. Thereby, when two members are to be coupled together, one is fixed to the combination of the first and second retainers, and the other is fixed to the third retainer; and a coupling performance with asymmetrical cushioning effect is provided between them, by the first resilient member being mounted with play while the second resilient member has substantially no play. A suspension for a vehicle is also disclosed utilizing this mounting.
