Abstract
A torque rod includes a small ring section to be connected to an engine, a large ring section to be connected to a vehicle body, and a rod section providing a connection between the small ring section and the large ring section. The large ring section includes an outer member connected to the rod section, an inner member to be connected to the vehicle body, and a large ring elastic member providing a connection between the outer member and the inner member. Based on a transmission characteristic map, which is prepared by mapping transmission characteristics of the torque rod that are determined by a rod length, a small ring torsion spring, a large ring spring and a large ring spring ratio as parameters, such a combination of parameters that the transmission characteristics are less than 100 N/mm is selected.
