Abstract
Disclosed is a vibration-damping device comprising: a first and a second mounting member disposed in mutually spaced apart relationship with each other and attachable to two members of a vibration system, respectively; and an elastic body disposed between and elastically connecting the first and second mounting members and including a connecting portion adapted to primarily connect the first and second mounting members. The connecting portion has a hollow housing portion in which an independent mass member is accommodated such that the independent mass member is independently displaceable relative to the housing portion without being bonded to the housing portion, and is brought into direct and elastic impact against the housing portion.
