Abstract
A vibration isolation mount particularly usefull for a hydraulic automotive vehicle braking system includes a shear mount, a rate washer, and a bolt and nut for clamping the shear mount and rate washer together and to the vibrating member. The shear mount is shaped to engage an opening in a support structure, such as a mounting bracket, and thereby connect the vibrating member to the support. In automotive applications, the mount reduces the amount of noise and vibration that is transmitted to the passenger compartment over prior art mounting systems while restricting travel of the accumulator plate with respect to the vehicle bracket within predetermined limits.
