Abstract
A mounting assembly has between an upper and a lower outer member, and between elastic members interconnected therewith, a core member made of a rigid material. The elastic members are formed and arranged in a manner to cause, upon application of an axial force onto the mounting assembly, rotational movement of the core member. On the core member, there are mounted a pair of pivotable flyweights adapted for divergent synchronous pivoting through larger or smaller angles. The arrangement enables the inertia moment of the core to be varied and the vibration attenuating characteristics of the mounting assembly to be adjusted accordingly. According to a preferable arrangement, the flyweights are adjusted by means of a servomotor.
