As a measure against each vibration of low frequency and high frequency, it is often the case that the liquid chamber is divided into a pressure receiving chamber and a equilibrium chamber by a partition plate and both chambers are communicated with an orifice, and a pressure receiving chamber is provided with a cap member. Are known. In this device, damping is achieved by the flow of the liquid through the orifice at the time of low frequency vibration input, and the liquid is passed through the gap between the bulk member and the mount body, which is generated by the relative movement of the bulk member at the time of high frequency vibration input. The flow of the liquid is intended to reduce the dynamic spring constant. And as an improved version of this type, a controllable liquid is formed by covering one surface of the above-mentioned bulky member with a diaphragm film to form an air chamber sealed inside, and controlling the internal pressure of this air chamber. An enclosed mount has been proposed (see Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 3-12639). In this structure, pressure changing means for changing the internal pressure of the air chamber is provided, and the diaphragm film is bulged or recessed toward the pressure receiving chamber by changing the internal pressure.

It has been proposed that a closed space is formed of a rubber film and an electrorheological liquid is enclosed in the closed space (see Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 3-168437). In this product, a voltage is applied to the electrorheological liquid in the low frequency range to harden the partition plate to obtain the original damping effect of the orifice, and the application of the voltage is stopped in the high frequency range to soften the partition plate. The volume of the pressure receiving chamber can be changed.

Can be obtained only for vibrations in a specific frequency range, and the effect of reducing the dynamic spring constant cannot be effectively obtained for vibrations in other frequency ranges.

難なものとなる。Further, in the conventional control type liquid-filled mount in which the air chamber is formed in the above-mentioned bulky member, the diaphragm film bulges or dents toward the pressure receiving chamber side due to the internal pressure control, that is, the bulky shape. Since the volume of the air chamber in the member changes, as a result of the internal pressure control of the air chamber, the hydraulic pressure in the pressure receiving chamber changes. Therefore, if the internal pressure is changed in the low frequency region, the flow rate of the liquid passing through the orifice that connects the pressure receiving chamber and the equilibrium chamber is changed, and it is necessary to tune in consideration of such an influence. Tuning becomes troublesome. On the other hand, even if the internal pressure is changed in the high frequency range, it is only possible to absorb the change in the liquid pressure in the pressure receiving chamber corresponding to the change in the volume of the air chamber, and the rigidity of the bulk member itself does not change. It cannot be expected that the frequency range will be changed or expanded to reduce the noise. In addition, when a composite input of high frequency vibration and low frequency vibration acts, it becomes extremely difficult to control each vibration independently.

It is only possible to suppress the sudden increase of the dynamic spring constant, and it is not intended to actively reduce the dynamic spring constant in the high frequency range, and the controllable frequency range is relatively narrow depending on the diameter of the partition plate.

When the voltage applied to the electrodes is changed, the viscosity of the electrorheological liquid in the bulk member changes, and the rigidity of the entire bulk member changes. As a result, the flexibility of the outer peripheral portion of the bulky member changes when the bulky member moves relative to the vibration input. For example, when a high voltage is applied to the electrorheological liquid,
The entire cap member becomes hard and moves relatively in phase with the vibration input from the mounting member, causing liquid flow in the pressure receiving chamber through the gap between the outer peripheral edge of the cap member and the inner surface of the pressure receiving chamber, causing the orifice to be clogged. The dynamic spring constant can be reduced with respect to high-frequency vibration that causes the state. Then, when the applied voltage is reduced, the viscosity of the electrorheological liquid is lowered and the bulky member becomes soft, that is, the rigidity (elastic coefficient) of the bulky member is lowered, and the deflection of the outer peripheral edge of the bulky member is reduced. The degree increases and a phase difference is generated during relative movement. Along with this, the flow velocity of the liquid passing through the gap changes and the resonance frequency changes. As a result, the frequency at which the effect of reducing the dynamic spring constant by the bulky member is changed.

On the other hand, while reducing the dynamic spring constant, high damping is achieved by liquid column resonance of the liquid passing through the gap between the outer peripheral edge of the bulky member and the inner surface of the pressure receiving chamber by applying a high voltage to low frequency vibration. .

振動の減衰を図ることができる。When the vertical low-frequency vibration is input from the mounting member 3 mounted on the side of the vibration source and the elastic support body 4 is bent and the mounting member 3 is displaced downward, the pressure receiving chamber 9a. Is reduced and the liquid L inside flows through the orifice 12 to the equilibrium chamber 9b side. With the flow of the liquid L, liquid column resonance via the orifice 12 can be effectively generated, and the liquid column resonance can attenuate the input vibration in the low frequency region.

圧室9aの液圧の増大変動は生じない。On the other hand, when the vibration input from the mounting member 3 is on the higher frequency side and a clogging state in which the flow of the liquid L through the orifice 12 is substantially not generated, the elastic support 4 Is bent downward, the hydraulic pressure in the pressure receiving chamber 9a rises. At this time, since the bulky member 7 is displaced in the vertical direction together with the mounting member 3 and the upper liquid chamber 9c expands and contracts, the lower liquid chamber 9d and the upper liquid chamber 9c pass through the annular gap 22 in the pressure receiving chamber 9a. A flow of the liquid L occurs between and. At this time, a predetermined voltage is applied to both electrodes 18 and 19 to control the electroviscous liquid E to a predetermined viscosity, and the rigidity of the bulky member 7 corresponds to this viscosity, and the upper and lower elasticity The film members 18b and 19b have a predetermined flexibility. Therefore, during the flow, the upper elastic film member 18b bends inward under the hydraulic pressure of the liquid L flowing from the lower liquid chamber portion 9d into the upper liquid chamber portion 9c, and the hydraulic pressure is absorbed. On the other hand, the lower elastic film member 19b bends outward. On the contrary, the elastic film member 19b on the lower side bends inward under the hydraulic pressure of the liquid L flowing from the upper liquid chamber portion 9c into the lower liquid chamber portion 9d, and the hydraulic pressure is absorbed, while The elastic film member 18b bends outward. As a result of the flow of the liquid L in the pressure receiving chamber 9a and the absorption of the hydraulic pressure by the elastic film members 18b and 19b, in the case of the conventional umbrella-shaped member formed by simple metal fittings (see the broken line in FIG. 3). Compared with the above, it is possible to prevent the increase of the dynamic spring constant at the time of high frequency vibration input, and further to positively reduce the dynamic spring constant (see the dashed line in the same figure). At this time, even if the bulky member 7 bends, the volume of the electrorheological liquid E inside is constant irrespective of whether or not a voltage is applied and whether the applied voltage is high or low. No incremental fluctuations occur.

を幅広い周波数域に拡大することができる。Then, the voltage applied to each of the electrodes 18 and 19 is changed and controlled by the control means 26 in accordance with the frequency of the high frequency vibration inputted. Along with the change in the applied voltage, the degree of deflection of the bulky member 7 changes and a phase difference occurs during relative movement, the flow velocity of the liquid L passing through the annular gap 22 changes, and the resonance frequency changes. As a result, the frequency at which the effect of reducing the dynamic spring constant by the bulky member 7 is changed. Then, for example, as shown in FIG. 3, as the frequency becomes higher in a high frequency region (for example, a region where engine muffled noise is generated), the bottoming portion (reduction portion) of the dynamic spring constant due to the resonance of the cap-shaped member 7 has a higher frequency Applied voltage to move to V
1, V2, V3 (V1 <V2 <V3) are continuously changed to the increasing side, so that the applied voltage V1 shown by the one-dot chain line is changed.
The bottoming part of the dynamic spring constant due to, the bottoming part due to the applied voltage V2 shown by the two-dot chain line, and the bottoming part due to the applied voltage V3 shown by the three-dot chain line become the continuous spring constant (see the solid line indicated by Kd). The reduction range of the spring constant can be expanded to a wide frequency range.

22を通る液体の液柱共振により減衰される低周波域が
加えられて、低周波振動の減衰域の拡大化が図られる。When a low-frequency vibration such as an engine shake or an acceleration / deceleration shock is input from the side of the mounting member 3, by applying a high voltage to the electrorheological liquid E in the cap-shaped member 7, the above-mentioned cap-shaped member is formed. The member 7 has a hardness close to that of a rigid body. This causes the liquid L to flow between the upper liquid chamber portion 9c and the lower liquid chamber portion 9d passing through the annular gap 22 in the pressure receiving chamber 9c as the bulky member 7 moves in the vertical direction. Therefore, when no voltage is applied to the electrorheological liquid E (see the alternate long and short dash line in FIG. 4), in the case of applying the above voltage, the liquid column resonance of the liquid passing through the annular gap 22 prevents the low frequency vibration. High damping can be obtained (see the solid line in the figure). Therefore, the liquid column resonance of the liquid passing through the annular gap 22 attenuates it in the low frequency region which is attenuated by the liquid column resonance between the pressure receiving chamber 9a and the equilibrium chamber 9b accompanying the flow of the liquid L through the orifice 12. By adding a low frequency range, the attenuation range of low frequency vibration can be expanded.

Since the cap-shaped member is formed by defining a closed space in which the cap-shaped member is enclosed, when the cap-shaped member is relatively moved by the input of high-frequency vibration that causes the orifice to be in a so-called clogging state, In addition to preventing the increase of the dynamic spring constant due to the flow of the liquid in the pressure receiving chamber passing through the gap between the outer peripheral edge of the pressure receiving chamber and the peripheral surface of the pressure receiving chamber, the hydraulic film is absorbed by the bending of the elastic film to positively increase the dynamic spring constant. It can be reduced. Moreover, since the viscosity of the electrorheological liquid can be changed by applying a voltage to the pair of electrodes to change the rigidity of the bulky member, the resonance frequency of the bulky member can be made variable, As a result, the frequency range in which the effect of reducing the dynamic spring constant by the bulky member is generated can be changed, and the dynamic spring constant can be reduced in a wide frequency range.
