ABSTRACT:
A fluid-filled engine mount, including: an elastic body connecting a first and a second mounting member; a pressure receiving chamber partially defined by the rubber elastic body; an equilibrium chamber partially defined by a flexible layer, a first orifice passage connecting between the pressure receiving and equilibrium chambers and tuned to a low frequency range, a second orifice passage connecting the both chambers and tuned to a medium frequency range; a valve member for opening/closing the second orifice passage and operated by a pneumatic actuator; a movable partition member including a rigid center movable plate portion and a readily deformable outer peripheral rubber film portion supported fluid-tightly by the second mount portion; and an intermediate equilibrium chamber formed opposing to the pressure receiving chamber with the movable partition member interposed therebetween.
