Abstract
A torque rod includes a rod main body, a first bushing and a second bushing. The rod main body is made of resin and provided integral with a first ring section and a second ring section on each end of an arm section. A first rib extends from the arm section to a front lateral surface of the second ring section. In a plan view, a second rib is provided to overlap with the first rib. The first rib projects forwardly of and in the left and right directions of the second rib. This projecting portion forms an enlarged diameter portion. Due to this enlarged diameter portion, an area of the first rib is made larger than an area of the second rib thereby to increase a rigidity of a forward side of the second ring.
