In such a fluid filled type vibration damping device, when the vibration in the substantially central axis direction is input between the first mounting member and the second mounting member, the pressure receiving chamber is accompanied by the elastic deformation of the main rubber elastic body. As a result of pressure fluctuations in the flow path, fluid flow through the orifice passage is generated based on the relative pressure fluctuations between the equilibrium chamber and the pressure receiving chamber, in which volume changes are allowed due to elastic deformation of the rubber elastic film. Thus, an effective vibration damping effect can be obtained based on the flow action such as the resonance action of the fluid. Moreover, in such a fluid filled type vibration damping device, the pressure receiving chamber is formed between the facing surfaces of the first mounting member and the second mounting member, and the equilibrium chamber is formed in the outer peripheral portion of the first mounting member. , The distance between the facing surfaces of the first mounting bracket and the second mounting bracket in the central axis direction can be suppressed to be small, and the size of the entire vibration isolator in the central axis direction can be made compact and the elasticity of the vibration isolator can be reduced. There is an advantage that the position of the center can be lowered, and its application to, for example, an engine mount for automobiles is under consideration.

Furthermore, in the pressure receiving chamber 64, an annular constriction flow channel 68 is formed as a whole between the outer peripheral edge portion of the umbrella fitting 26 and the inner surface of the recess 28 of the main rubber elastic body 16 facing each other. As the first mounting member 12 and the second mounting member 14 are relatively displaced at the time of vibration input, the umbrella metal member 26 is displaced in the pressure receiving chamber 64, so that the fluid flow through the narrowed channel 68 is generated. As a result, a predetermined vibration isolation effect (vibration isolation effect) based on the resonance action of the fluid is exhibited. In the present embodiment, the constricted channel 68 is different from the vibration frequency range in which the vibration damping effect based on the elastic deformation of the elastic rubber plate 54 is exerted, for example, based on the resonance action of the fluid flowing inside the constricted channel 68. The cross-sectional area and the length of the narrowed flow passage 68 are set so that the vibration-damping effect based on the low dynamic spring action is exerted on the vibration in the frequency range, specifically, the high-frequency vibration such as medium to high-speed muffled sound. Things are adjusted.
