ABSTRACT:
A sub-frame supporting device in which a sub-frame adapted to support an engine, wheels and the like is supported from the body of a vehicle through an elastic support member. The supporting device comprises a pair of upper and lower holding plates oppositely disposed, a spacer pipe connecting the holding plates, a fastener for fastening the holding plates to a vehicle body and an elastic support member. A flange of the sub-frame is held between the elastic support member and a damper rib, and gaps are formed adjacent the upper and lower surfaces of the elastic support member. The rigidity of the elastic support member is set so as to be decreased with respect to vertical shearing force and increased with respect to lateral compressive force.
