(Prior Art) In the parts where the suspension arms constituting the suspension system of the vehicle are attached to the vehicle body, -m is installed to reduce vibrations propagated to the vehicle body through the wheels and suspension arms, etc. when the vehicle is running. Bushes are arranged. Such a bushing usually consists of an elastic body such as rubber interposed between an inner cylinder part into which the suspension arm is inserted and an outer cylinder part which is fixed to the vehicle body. The load acting between them is absorbed by the deformation of the elastic body. Furthermore, it acts between the outer cylinder part and the inner cylinder part that constitute the bush. A fluid-filled bushing is also known in which a fluid such as oil is sealed in a fluid chamber formed inside an elastic body in order to generate a damping force against a load.

As such a fluid-filled bushing, for example,
1-108546 discloses a fluid chamber formed in an elastic body interposed between an inner cylinder part and an outer cylinder part, and a partition member that partitions the fluid chamber into a plurality of parts along the axial direction of the inner cylinder part. It has been proposed that such a partition member is provided with a communication portion (referred to as an orifice in the above publication) that allows a plurality of fluid chambers partitioned by the partition member to communicate with each other. In such a fluid-filled bushing, fluid is supplied and discharged through the communication portion between each of the plurality of fluid chambers partitioned by the partition member, thereby resisting the load acting in the axial direction of the inner cylinder portion. damping force is generated.

(Problem to be Solved by the Invention) However, when a load acts in two directions perpendicular to each other along the longitudinal direction and the width direction of the vehicle body, such as the part where the suspension arm of a vehicle suspension device is attached to the vehicle body, etc. If a fluid-filled bushing such as the one described above is placed in a position where the bushing is placed in a position where the fluid-filled bushing is placed, a good riding comfort cannot be obtained because no damping force is generated for one of the loads acting in two orthogonal directions. It turns out to be a problem. Therefore, in order to deal with such problems, it is necessary to reduce the load that acts in the axial direction of the inner cylinder part and the load that acts in the direction orthogonal to the axial direction of the inner cylinder part, etc., at the part where the suspension arm is attached to the vehicle body. Although it would be desirable to have a fluid-filled bushing capable of producing a damping force for each load, no fluid-filled bushings have been found for this purpose.

(Function) In the fluid-filled bushing according to the present invention configured as described above, when a load is applied in the axial direction of the inner cylinder part, the bushing is inserted between the outer cylinder part and the inner cylinder part. Due to the elastic body, the volume of each of the two fluid chambers formed side by side in the axial direction of the inner cylinder portion is changed less than the displacement of the elastic body that partitions the two fluid chambers. The sealed fluid is caused to flow from the fluid chamber with a small volume to the fluid chamber with a large volume through the communication path, thereby generating a damping force. In addition, when a load is applied in a direction perpendicular to the axial direction of the inner cylinder, the
The amount of deformation of the side wall portion with a small thickness in the two fluid chambers is increased, and the volume of the two fluid chambers is changed.

For example, when a load is applied to the front side of the vehicle body in the opposite direction to the direction indicated by arrow X in FIG. It is displaced in the opposite direction. In such a state, the stoppers 48 and 49 move toward the front side of the vehicle body together with the inner cylindrical portion 38 accompanied by the elastic body 42, and the movement of the stoppers 48 and 49 compresses the fluid chambers 44a and 45a, causing the fluid to flow out. room 4
The volumes of fluid chambers 4b and 45b are larger than those of fluid chambers 44a and 45a. Thereby, the fluid chambers 44a and 4
The fluids in 5a communicate in the opposite direction to the direction indicated by the white arrow in FIG. 4! The fluid flows into the fluid chambers 44b and 45b through 46 and 47, and a damping force against the load acting in the axial direction of the inner cylinder portion 38 is generated.

For example, when a load along the vehicle width direction as shown by arrow Y in FIG. 5 is applied, the inner cylinder part 38 is moved in the direction shown by arrow Y with respect to the outer cylinder part 40. In such a state, the fluid chambers 45a and 45b are compressed, and the thinner side wall portion of the fluid chamber 45a deforms outward to a greater extent than the thicker side wall portion of the fluid chamber 45b. However, as a result, the volume of the fluid chamber 45a is made larger than the volume of the fluid chamber 45b.

Moreover, at the other end 30a of the compression rod 30,
For example, when a load is applied along the vehicle width direction, which is opposite to the direction shown by arrow Y in FIG. forced to move in the opposite direction. In such a state, the fluid chambers 45a and 45b are expanded, and the thinner side wall of the fluid chamber 45a deforms inward to a greater extent than the thicker side wall of the fluid chamber 45b. Therefore, the volume of the fluid chamber 45b is made larger than the volume of the fluid chamber 45a. Further, the fluid chambers 44a and 44b are compressed, and the fluid chamber 4
The thinner side wall portion of the fluid chamber 4b deforms outward to a greater extent than the thicker side wall portion of the fluid chamber 44a, so that the volume of the fluid chamber 44b becomes equal to the volume of the fluid chamber 44a. It is said to be large in comparison. For this reason, the fluid chambers 45a and 4
The fluid in 4a is caused to flow into fluid chambers 45b and 44b through communication passages 46 and 47, respectively, in the opposite direction to the direction indicated by the white arrow in FIG.
A damping force is generated against a load acting in a direction perpendicular to the axial direction.

In addition, at the other end 30a of the compression rod 30,
When an excessive load is applied in a direction perpendicular to the axial direction of the inner cylinder part 38, the amount of displacement of the inner cylinder part 38 with respect to the outer cylinder part 40 is regulated by stoppers 48 and 49 that protrude from the inner cylinder part 38.

(Effects of the Invention) As is clear from the above description, according to the fluid-filled bushing of the present invention, when a load is applied in the axial direction of the inner cylinder, the inner cylinder is juxtaposed along the axial direction. Since the volumes of the two fluid chambers are changed by the deformation of the elastic body, a damping force is generated based on the flow of fluid from the fluid chamber with a smaller volume to the fluid chamber with a larger volume. (Also, when a load is applied in a direction perpendicular to the axial direction of the inner cylinder, the thinner side wall of one of the two fluid chambers formed by the elastic body Since the amount of deformation is large and the volumes of the two fluid chambers are changed, the damping force is generated based on the inflow of fluid from the fluid chamber with a small volume to the fluid chamber with a large volume. can be generated.

Therefore, for example, when such a fluid-filled bushing is placed in a part of a vehicle suspension system where a suspension arm is attached to the vehicle body, it is difficult to handle the loads acting on the suspension arm in the vehicle longitudinal direction and the vehicle width direction. A damping force is obtained, and riding comfort is significantly improved.
