An anti-vibration device comprising first and second strength members interlinked by an elastomer body adapted to work in compression mode along a main vibration axis is disclosed. The first strength member is fitted in a slider of a support, in a direction of fitting perpendicular to the main vibration axis. The first strength member is blocked in the slider by snap-fitting.

Anti-vibration device

A motor vehicle has its power unit connected to its vehicle structure via a suspension provided with at least one mount which comprises a rigid support arm secured to the power unit, an antivibration support including an elastomer body which supports the power unit while allowing displacements of the power unit at least parallel to a vertical first axis and parallel to a horizontal second axis, and a displacement limiter acting parallel to the second axis. The displacement limiter comprises three rigid fingers perpendicular to the second axis, together with two limiter rings of elastomer reinforced with strong thread, each ring surrounding two of the three fingers, specifically a finger secured to the support arm and a finger secured to the vehicle structure.
