Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a liquid sealed bushing which realizes an improvement of stiffness or damping performance in the axial direction while employing a relatively compact and simple configuration. <P>SOLUTION: An elastic body 18 has a left forward liquid chamber 21 and a right forward liquid chamber 22 formed in its forward portion, and on the other hand, a left rear liquid chamber 23 and a right rear liquid chamber 24 formed in its rear portion. A stopper 17 has a first sub-orifice 33 communicating the left forward liquid chamber 21 and the right forward liquid chamber 22 and a second sub-orifice 34 communicating the left rear liquid chamber 23 and the right rear liquid chamber 24. When a trailing arm 2 moves in the right direction, working liquid 29 of the left forward liquid chamber 21 and the left rear liquid chamber 23 flows into the right forward liquid chamber 22 or the right rear liquid chamber 24 through the sub-orifices 33 and 34. Rapid right/left movement of the trailing arm 2 is hardly caused by a flow resistance when the working liquid 29 flows through the sub-orifices 33 and 34, and right/left vibration of the trailing arm 2 is also damped promptly. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT

Description

本発明は、車両用サスペンションの連結部位等に介装される液体封入ブッシュに係り、詳しくは、比較的小型かつ簡便な構成を採りながら、軸方向での剛性や減衰性の向上を実現を実現する技術に関する。   The present invention relates to a liquid-filled bush interposed in a connection part of a vehicle suspension, and more specifically, it achieves improvement in axial rigidity and damping while adopting a relatively small and simple configuration. Related to technology.

自動車用サスペンションには、フレームやサスペンションメンバ等の車体側構造部材(以下、フレームに代表させる)とナックルやアクスルビーム等の車輪側部材とを連結させるため、各種のアームやロッド(以下、アームに代表させる)が用いられている。通常、フレームとアームとの連結部には、路面からの振動等の車体側構造部材への伝達を抑制すべく、芯部材と外筒との間に弾性体(一般には、ゴム)を加硫接着等によって固着・一体化させてなるブッシュが取り付けられている。ブッシュは操縦安定性の観点からはばね定数を高くすることが望ましいが、乗り心地や音振性能(NVH低減)の観点からは減衰性も高くする必要がある。そこで、一部の自動車用サスペンションでは、動的ばね定数の最適化と減衰性の向上とを両立させるべく、オリフィスで連通された2つの液室を弾性体の内部に形成し、両液室にシリコーンオイル等の作動液を封入した液体封入ブッシュが採用されている(特許文献1,2参照)。   In automobile suspensions, various types of arms and rods (hereinafter referred to as arms) are connected to vehicle-side structural members (hereinafter referred to as frames) such as frames and suspension members and wheel side members such as knuckles and axle beams. Is used). Normally, an elastic body (generally rubber) is vulcanized between the core member and the outer cylinder at the joint between the frame and the arm in order to suppress transmission of vibration from the road surface to the vehicle body side structural member. A bush that is fixed and integrated by bonding or the like is attached. Although it is desirable for the bush to have a high spring constant from the viewpoint of steering stability, it is also necessary to increase the damping from the viewpoint of riding comfort and sound vibration performance (NVH reduction). Therefore, in some automobile suspensions, in order to achieve both optimization of the dynamic spring constant and improvement of damping performance, two liquid chambers communicated by an orifice are formed inside the elastic body, and both liquid chambers are formed. A liquid-filled bush in which hydraulic fluid such as silicone oil is sealed is employed (see Patent Documents 1 and 2).

液体封入ブッシュでは、芯部材と外筒との間に所定方向の力が作用しても、作動液がオリフィスを介して流動する際の抵抗によって芯部材と外筒との瞬間的な変位が抑制され、サスペンションジオメトリーの急激な変化が生じ難くなる。また、芯部材が外筒に対して所定の方向に相対振動すると両液室の容積が交番的に拡縮するため、一方の液室と他方の液室との間でオリフィスを介した作動液の移動が生じ、その際の流動抵抗によって相対振動が減衰される。例えば、特許文献1の液体封入ブッシュでは、サスペンションアームへの装着時において両液室が芯部材を挟むかたちで径方向前後に形成されており、自動車の加減速時におけるサスペンション剛性を向上させるとともに、前後方向の振動も効果的に減衰する。なお、液体封入ブッシュでは、芯部材と外筒との径方向相対変位を規制すべく、ストッパが液室内に設置されている。

In the liquid-filled bush, even if a force in a predetermined direction acts between the core member and the outer cylinder, the momentary displacement between the core member and the outer cylinder is suppressed by the resistance when the hydraulic fluid flows through the orifice. As a result, sudden changes in suspension geometry are less likely to occur. In addition, when the core member relatively vibrates in a predetermined direction with respect to the outer cylinder, the volume of both liquid chambers alternately expands and contracts, so that the working fluid passes through the orifice between one liquid chamber and the other liquid chamber. Movement occurs, and the relative vibration is attenuated by the flow resistance at that time. For example, in the liquid-filled bush of Patent Document 1, both liquid chambers are formed in the front-rear direction in the form of sandwiching the core member when mounted on the suspension arm, improving the suspension rigidity during acceleration / deceleration of the automobile, The vibration in the front-rear direction is also damped effectively. In the liquid-filled bush, a stopper is installed in the liquid chamber in order to restrict the radial relative displacement between the core member and the outer cylinder.
Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-2372 JP 2002-266929 A

上述した従来の液体封入ブッシュには、弾性体内に液室を設けることに起因する次のような問題があった。液体封入ブッシュでは、弾性体内に液室(すなわち、空間)が設けられているため、通常のブッシュに較べて軸方向の剛性や減衰性が低くなることが避けられない。したがって、自動車の旋回走行時に横力が作用すると、サスペンションアームが比較的容易に左右に移動する他、左右方向の振動も減衰され難くなり、操縦性や安定性が損なわれるのである。そこで、特許文献2の液体封入ブッシュでは、芯部材から延設された固定プレートと外筒から延設された傾斜板との間に弾性体を介装し、軸方向における剛性や減衰性の向上を図っている。しかしながら、このような液体封入ブッシュは、その体格が大きくなるために設置自由度が減少する他、構成部材点数が増大して製造コストが高くなること等が避けられなかった。また、液室内に突出するストッパの形状を工夫し、作動液の慣性マス効果によって軸方向の剛性を一時的に高めることも試みたが、体格を徒に小さくするとストッパとしての機能が発揮できなくなる虞があった。   The conventional liquid-filled bush described above has the following problems resulting from providing a liquid chamber in the elastic body. In the liquid-filled bush, since a liquid chamber (that is, a space) is provided in the elastic body, it is inevitable that the axial rigidity and attenuation are reduced as compared with a normal bush. Therefore, when a lateral force is applied during turning of the automobile, the suspension arm moves relatively easily to the left and right, and vibrations in the left and right directions are hardly attenuated, resulting in a loss of maneuverability and stability. Therefore, in the liquid-filled bush of Patent Document 2, an elastic body is interposed between the fixed plate extended from the core member and the inclined plate extended from the outer cylinder, thereby improving the rigidity and damping in the axial direction. I am trying. However, such a liquid-filled bush has an unavoidable increase in manufacturing cost due to an increase in the number of constituent members as well as a reduction in the degree of freedom of installation due to an increase in the size of the body. In addition, the shape of the stopper that protrudes into the liquid chamber has been devised, and an attempt has been made to temporarily increase the axial rigidity by the inertial mass effect of the hydraulic fluid. There was a fear.

本発明は、このような背景に鑑みなされたもので、比較的小型かつ簡便な構成を採りながら、軸方向での剛性や減衰性の向上を実現した液体封入ブッシュを提供することを目的とする。   The present invention has been made in view of such a background, and an object of the present invention is to provide a liquid-filled bush that realizes improvement in rigidity and damping in the axial direction while adopting a relatively small and simple configuration. .

請求項1の発明は、外筒と、この外筒の内側に配設された芯部材と、前記外筒と前記芯部材との間に介装された弾性体と、前記弾性体における前記芯部材を挟んだ径方向一側に形成された一側液室と、前記弾性体における前記芯部材を挟んだ径方向他側に形成された他側液室と、前記一側液室と前記他側液室とを連通するメインオリフィスとを備え、前記一側液室と前記他側液室とに作動液を封入してなる液体封入ブッシュであって、前記芯部材から前記一側液室と前記他側液室との少なくとも一方の軸方向中間部に向けてストッパが突設されるとともに、当該ストッパに前記作動液を軸方向に流通させるサブオリフィスが穿設されたことを特徴とする。   The invention according to claim 1 is an outer cylinder, a core member disposed inside the outer cylinder, an elastic body interposed between the outer cylinder and the core member, and the core in the elastic body One side liquid chamber formed on one side in the radial direction across the member, the other side liquid chamber formed on the other side in the radial direction across the core member in the elastic body, the one side liquid chamber, and the other A liquid-filled bush comprising a main orifice that communicates with a side liquid chamber, and in which a working liquid is sealed in the one-side liquid chamber and the other-side liquid chamber, from the core member to the one-side liquid chamber; A stopper is projected toward at least one axially intermediate portion with respect to the other side liquid chamber, and a sub-orifice through which the working fluid flows in the axial direction is formed in the stopper.

また、請求項2の発明は、請求項1の発明に係る液体封入ブッシュにおいて、前記一側液室と前記他側液室との少なくとも一方を軸方向で区画する弾性隔壁を備えたことを特徴とする。   According to a second aspect of the present invention, in the liquid-filled bush according to the first aspect of the present invention, an elastic partition that partitions at least one of the one-side liquid chamber and the other-side liquid chamber in the axial direction is provided. And

請求項1の液体封入ブッシュによれば、芯部材と外筒とが軸方向に相対移動すると、ストッパで仕切られた液室の一方の側から他方の側にサブオリフィスを介して作動液が流動するため、サブオリフィスの径等を変えることで軸方向の剛性や減衰性を比較的自由に設定できる。また、請求項2の液体封入ブッシュによれば、作動液がサブオリフィス以外の部位(すなわち、ストッパと弾性体との間)を通過しなくなるため、軸方向の剛性や減衰性をより高めることができる。   According to the liquid-filled bush of claim 1, when the core member and the outer cylinder move relative to each other in the axial direction, the working fluid flows from one side of the liquid chamber partitioned by the stopper to the other side through the sub-orifice. Therefore, the axial rigidity and damping can be set relatively freely by changing the diameter of the sub-orifice. According to the liquid-filled bush of claim 2, since the hydraulic fluid does not pass through a portion other than the sub-orifice (that is, between the stopper and the elastic body), axial rigidity and damping can be further improved. it can.

以下、図面を参照して、本発明を適用した液体封入ブッシュの実施形態を詳細に説明する。   Hereinafter, an embodiment of a liquid filled bush to which the present invention is applied will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

<Liquid filled bush>
As shown in FIGS. 3 to 7, the liquid-filled bush 11 is press-fitted into a steel tube inner cylinder (core member) 15 whose both ends abut against the inner surface of the bracket 13 and the holding cylinder portion 9 of the trailing arm 2. The main components are an outer cylinder 16 made of steel pipe and an elastic body 18 interposed between the inner cylinder 15 and the outer cylinder 16.

第1実施形態の液体封入ブッシュ11では、内筒15の軸方向中央部に略長円形断面のストッパ17が圧入によって外嵌・一体化されている。また、外筒16には、弾性体18がその内周面に固着(加硫接着)された略円筒状のアウタカラー19が内嵌している。なお、アウタカラー19は、外筒16の両端部が加締められることにより、外筒16に固着・一体化されている。また、弾性体18は、アウタカラー19の内周面に固着されるとともに、内筒15の外周面およびストッパ17の外周面や側面にも固着(加硫接着)されている。   In the liquid-filled bush 11 of the first embodiment, a stopper 17 having a substantially oval cross section is externally fitted and integrated at the axially central portion of the inner cylinder 15 by press-fitting. The outer cylinder 16 is fitted with a substantially cylindrical outer collar 19 in which an elastic body 18 is fixed (vulcanized and bonded) to the inner peripheral surface thereof. The outer collar 19 is fixed and integrated with the outer cylinder 16 by crimping both ends of the outer cylinder 16. The elastic body 18 is fixed to the inner peripheral surface of the outer collar 19, and is also fixed (vulcanized and bonded) to the outer peripheral surface of the inner cylinder 15 and the outer peripheral surface and side surfaces of the stopper 17.

図5,図6に示すように、弾性体18には、その前部に左前液室21と右前液室22とが形成される一方、後部に左後液室23と右後液室24とが形成されている。各液室21〜24は、側面視でそれぞれ円弧状を呈しており、前後方向中央部に形成された左右一対の弾性隔壁25,26と、左右方向中央部に形成された前後一対の弾性隔壁27,28とによって弾性体18内に区画されている。なお、各液室21〜24には、シリコーンオイル等の作動液29が封入されている。   As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the elastic body 18 has a left front liquid chamber 21 and a right front liquid chamber 22 formed at the front thereof, while a left rear liquid chamber 23 and a right rear liquid chamber 24 formed at the rear thereof. Is formed. Each of the liquid chambers 21 to 24 has an arc shape in a side view, and a pair of left and right elastic partition walls 25 and 26 formed in the center portion in the front-rear direction, and a pair of front and rear elastic partitions formed in the center portion in the left-right direction. The elastic body 18 is partitioned by 27 and 28. Note that a hydraulic fluid 29 such as silicone oil is sealed in each of the liquid chambers 21 to 24.

アウタカラー19には、左前液室21と左後液室23とを連通する上下一対の第1メインオリフィス31と、右前液室22と右後液室24とを連通するこれも上下一対の第2メインオリフィス32とが形成されている。また、ストッパ17(および、弾性体18のストッパ17の外周を覆う部位)には、左前液室21と右前液室22とを連通する第1サブオリフィス33と、左後液室23と右後液室24とを連通する第2サブオリフィス34とが穿設されている。   The outer collar 19 has a pair of upper and lower first main orifices 31 communicating the left front liquid chamber 21 and the left rear liquid chamber 23, and a right front liquid chamber 22 and a right rear liquid chamber 24. 2 main orifices 32 are formed.

A second sub-orifice 34 communicating with the liquid chamber 24 is formed.

≪第1実施形態の作用≫
自動車が直進走行中に加減速を行ったり、大きな段差を乗り越えたりすると、リヤサスペンション1にはリヤホイール7,8から前後方向の力が作用し、トレーリングアーム2が前後に移動する。そして、図8に示すように、トレーリングアーム2が後方に移動すると、内筒15に対する外筒16の後退に伴い、左右前液室21,22の容積が縮小し、左右後液室23,24の容積が拡大することになる。
<< Operation of First Embodiment >>
When the vehicle accelerates or decelerates while traveling straight ahead or climbs over a large level difference, force in the front-rear direction acts on the rear suspension 1 from the rear wheels 7 and 8, and the trailing arm 2 moves back and forth. As shown in FIG. 8, when the trailing arm 2 moves rearward, the volume of the left and right front liquid chambers 21 and 22 decreases with the retraction of the outer cylinder 16 with respect to the inner cylinder 15, and the left and right rear liquid chambers 23, The volume of 24 will be expanded.

第1実施形態では、左前液室21と左後液室23とが第1メインオリフィス31によって連通され、右前液室22と右後液室24とが第2メインオリフィス32によって連通されているため、左右前液室21,22の作動液29は、これらメインオリフィス31,32を介して左右後液室23,24に流入することになる。その結果、作動液29がメインオリフィス31,32を通過する際の流動抵抗によってトレーリングアーム2の急激な前後動が起こり難くなるとともに、トレーリングアーム2の前後振動も速やかに減衰される。   In the first embodiment, the left front liquid chamber 21 and the left rear liquid chamber 23 are communicated by the first main orifice 31, and the right front liquid chamber 22 and the right rear liquid chamber 24 are communicated by the second main orifice 32. The hydraulic fluid 29 in the left and right front liquid chambers 21 and 22 flows into the left and right rear liquid chambers 23 and 24 through these main orifices 31 and 32. As a result, the forward and backward movement of the trailing arm 2 is less likely to occur due to the flow resistance when the hydraulic fluid 29 passes through the main orifices 31 and 32, and the longitudinal vibration of the trailing arm 2 is also quickly damped.

一方、自動車が旋回走行を行うと、リヤサスペンション1にはリヤホイール7,8から左右方向の力が作用し、トレーリングアーム2が左右方向に移動する。そして、図9に示すように、トレーリングアーム2が右方向に移動すると、左前液室21および左後液室23の容積が縮小し、右前液室22および右後液室24の容積が拡大することになる。   On the other hand, when the automobile turns, the left and right forces are applied to the rear suspension 1 from the rear wheels 7 and 8, and the trailing arm 2 moves in the left and right direction. As shown in FIG. 9, when the trailing arm 2 moves to the right, the volumes of the left front liquid chamber 21 and the left rear liquid chamber 23 are reduced, and the volumes of the right front liquid chamber 22 and the right rear liquid chamber 24 are increased. Will do.

第1実施形態では、左前液室21と右前液室22とが第1サブオリフィス33によって連通され、左後液室23と右後液室24とが第2サブオリフィス34によって連通されているため、左前液室21および左後液室23の作動液29は、これらサブオリフィス33,34を介して右前液室22または右後液室24に流入することになる。その結果、作動液29がサブオリフィス33,34を通過する際の流動抵抗によってトレーリングアーム2の急激な左右動が起こり難くなるとともに、トレーリングアーム2の左右振動も速やかに減衰される。なお、図10はサブオリフィスの径と動ばね定数との関係を示すグラフであり、小径(図中にAで示す)から中径(図中にBで示す)、大径(図中にCで示す)と、径が大きくなるに従って、動ばね定数が高周波域まで高くなることが判る。   In the first embodiment, the left front liquid chamber 21 and the right front liquid chamber 22 are communicated by the first sub-orifice 33, and the left rear liquid chamber 23 and the right rear liquid chamber 24 are communicated by the second sub-orifice 34. The hydraulic fluid 29 in the left front liquid chamber 21 and the left rear liquid chamber 23 flows into the right front liquid chamber 22 or the right rear liquid chamber 24 through the sub-orifices 33 and 34. As a result, the rapid left / right movement of the trailing arm 2 is less likely to occur due to the flow resistance when the hydraulic fluid 29 passes through the sub-orifices 33 and 34, and the left / right vibration of the trailing arm 2 is also quickly damped. FIG. 10 is a graph showing the relationship between the diameter of the sub-orifice and the dynamic spring constant, from small diameter (indicated by A in the figure) to medium diameter (indicated by B in the figure), large diameter (indicated by C in the figure). It can be seen that the dynamic spring constant increases to the high frequency region as the diameter increases.

[第2実施形態]
図11は第2実施形態に係る液体封入ブッシュの軸心を通る水平面で切断した縦断面図であり、図12は図11中のXII−XII断面図である。なお、図11は第1実施形態における図5に対応し、図12は同じく図6に対応する。
[Second Embodiment]
11 is a longitudinal sectional view cut along a horizontal plane passing through the axis of the liquid-filled bush according to the second embodiment, and FIG. 12 is a sectional view taken along the line XII-XII in FIG. 11 corresponds to FIG. 5 in the first embodiment, and FIG. 12 also corresponds to FIG.

≪第2実施形態の構成≫
図11,図12に示すように、第2実施形態の液体封入ブッシュ11は、上述した第1実施形態のものと略同様の構造を有しているが、以下のいくつかの点で異なっている。すなわち、第2実施形態の液体封入ブッシュ11では、左前液室21と右前液室22とを区画する隔壁や左後液室23と右後液室24とを区画する隔壁が無く、左前液室21と右前液室22との間および左後液室23と右後液室24との間が比較的断面積の小さい連通路で連通され、更に、第1,第2サブオリフィス33,34が有意に拡大されている。
<< Configuration of Second Embodiment >>
As shown in FIGS. 11 and 12, the liquid-filled bush 11 of the second embodiment has a structure that is substantially the same as that of the first embodiment described above, but differs in the following points. Yes. That is, in the liquid filled bushing 11 of the second embodiment, there is no partition partitioning the left front liquid chamber 21 and the right front liquid chamber 22 and no partition partitioning the left rear liquid chamber 23 and the right rear liquid chamber 24, and the left front liquid chamber. 21 and the right front liquid chamber 22 and between the left rear liquid chamber 23 and the right rear liquid chamber 24 are communicated by a communication path having a relatively small cross-sectional area. Further, the first and second sub-orifices 33 and 34 are connected to each other. Significantly expanded.

≪第2実施形態の作用≫
第2実施形態の液体封入ブッシュ11では、図13に示すように、トレーリングアーム2が左右方向に移動した場合、左前液室21と右前液室22とを区画する隔壁や左後液室23と右後液室24とを区画する隔壁が無く、両サブオリフィス33,34が拡大されていることにより、弾性体18と作動液29の慣性マスとによって一種の共振系が形成され、高周波振動の効果的な減衰が行われる。
<< Operation of Second Embodiment >>
In the liquid-filled bush 11 of the second embodiment, as shown in FIG. 13, when the trailing arm 2 moves in the left-right direction, a partition that partitions the left front liquid chamber 21 and the right front liquid chamber 22 or the left rear liquid chamber 23. And the right rear liquid chamber 24 are not partitioned, and both the sub-orifices 33 and 34 are enlarged, so that a kind of resonance system is formed by the elastic body 18 and the inertia mass of the hydraulic fluid 29, and high-frequency vibration is generated. Effective attenuation of the is performed.

このように、上記両実施形態の液体封入ブッシュ11では、比較的小型かつ簡便な構成を採りながら、前後方向のみならず、左右方向においてもリヤサスペンション1の剛性や減衰性を向上させることができ、操縦性安定性や乗り心地の悪化等を効果的に抑制することができた。   As described above, in the liquid filled bushing 11 of both the above embodiments, the rigidity and damping of the rear suspension 1 can be improved not only in the front-rear direction but also in the left-right direction while adopting a relatively small and simple configuration.
