Elastic mount and method for producing elastic rubber bodies therefor

摘要

An elastic mount, particularly for supporting drive assemblies in motor vehicles, includes a housing being open toward an engine and secured to a rigid abutment. A support arm protrudes laterally from the drive assembly and is supported on the rigid abutment by elastomer bodies. The support arm has an approximately cross-shaped cross section and laterally obliquely projecting ribs. Elongated rubber bodies are cut from a continuous extrudate and having a prismatic cross section. The rubber bodies are inserted between the ribs for vertical and horizontal support and are enclosed by the housing. A method for producing elastic rubber bodies for an elastic mount for supporting drive assemblies, includes extruding rubber bodies with a predetermined cross section as continuous extruded profiles made of an elastomer, vulcanizing the rubber bodies, and then dividing the rubber bodies into a predetermined length of individual rubber bodies.
