Abstract
A device for elastically supporting an upper structure on a frame and thus reducing the vibration which is transmitted from the frame to the upper structure. The device comprises a main elastic member having a through-hole in its center, the main elastic member including a small-diameter portion at its upper part to define its shoulder, the center of the lower end of the main elastic member projecting beyond its peripheral part by a predetermined distance; a tubular inward rigid member having substantially the same length as the through-hole of the main elastic member, which rigid member is disposed within the through-hole with its outer wall being fixed to the inner wall of the through-hole; an outward rigid member fixed to the peripheral side wall of the main elastic member; a substantially annular elastic member having a central through opening adapted to receive the small-diameter portion of the main elastic member; and a bolt whose axial part can be inserted in the inward rigid member and a nut to secure the bolt. According to this device, the upper structure is elastically supported chiefly by the elasticity of the main elastic member.
