Abstract
A vibration isolator of the type having opposed fluid filled chambers separated by a partition having an elongate inertia track passageway providing fluid communication between the chambers is provided with a decoupler disc and cage configuration which attenuates noise and minimizes leakage while providing a relatively low minimum dynamic stiffness at a predetermined high excitation frequency. The decoupler disc has an edge configuration which cooperates with its cage to permit flexure only about peripheral fulcrums. Decoupler disc displacement inwardly of its peripheral fulcrums is progressively arrested by shapes provided on opposite sides of the decoupler disc and confronting cage structure.
