Abstract

This anti-vibration mount, comprising a base and a head connected by an elastomer body, is intended to be interposed between two rigid elements to damp the vibrations between these two elements, on a central axis. This mount comprises a non-extensible limiting cable forming a loop, which is fixed to the base and to the head, this cable comprising a first part which is supported on the head by winding around it and which extends towards the base from the head, and a second part which runs along at least a first portion of the periphery of the base and winds around at least a first return element integral with the base, level with two joints between this second part and the first part of the cable, the cable being restrained by the return element.
