Abstract
The present subject matter relates to improved damping fluid mount devices, systems, and methods in which a damping fluid mount () includes an inner member (), an elastomer section () that is affixed to an outer surface of the inner member (), and a cup () containing viscous fluid (). The elastomer section () has an outer diameter that is variable along an elastomer contour, and a crimped portion of the cup is radially crimped into the elastomer section () such that the crimped portion precompresses the elastomer section () and substantially mimics the elastomer contour.
