Abstract
Abstract A vibration isolating mount has a columnar vibration isolating rubber body, an upper retaining plate bonded to an upper end surface of the columnar rubber body, a lower retaining plate bonded to a lower end surface of the columnar rubber body, an upper bracket plate made of nonferrous metal and secured to an upper surface of the upper retaining plate, and a lower bracket plate made of nonferrous metal and secured to a lower surface of the lower retaining plate, and two chemical conversion coating layers formed in a lower surface of the upper retaining plate and an upper surface of the lower retaining plate. Each chemical conversion coating layer is made of one of zinc phosphate and calcium zinc phosphate, and improves the adhesive strength between each retaining plate and the rubber body while preventing each retaining plate from peeling off from the rubber body.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
109 words
A vibration isolating mount comprising: a vibration isolating rubber body; two retaining members for retaining said vibration isolating rubber body, each of said two retaining members being made of iron and bonded to each of two opposed surfaces of said rubber body; a bracket for connecting at least one of said retaining members to a vibrating body, said bracket being made of nonferrous metal; and a chemical conversion coating layer formed in a surface of one portion of said at least one of retaining members, which portion is bonded to said rubber body, said chemical conversion coating layer being made of one of zinc phosphate and calcium zinc phosphate.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
109 words
A vibration isolating mount comprising: a vibration isolating rubber body; two retaining members for retaining said vibration isolating rubber body, each of said two retaining members being made of iron and bonded to each of two opposed surfaces of said rubber body; a bracket for connecting at least one of said retaining members to a vibrating body, said bracket being made of nonferrous metal; and a chemical conversion coating layer formed in a surface of one portion of said at least one of retaining members, which portion is bonded to said rubber body, said chemical conversion coating layer being made of one of zinc phosphate and calcium zinc phosphate.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
125 words
A vibration isolating mount according to claim 1, wherein said vibration isolating rubber body is composed of a columnar rubber body, said two retaning members are composed of an upper retaining plate bonded to an upper end surface of said columnar rubber body, and a lower retaining plate bonded to a lower end surface of said columnar rubber body, an upper bracket plate made of nonferrous metal is secured to an upper surface of said upper retaining plate, and a lower bracket plate made of nonferrous metal is secured to a lower surface of said lower retaining plate, said chemical conversion coating layer is formed in each of a lower surface of said upper retaining plate and an upper surface of said lower retaining plate.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
