MUMBAI, India, April 20 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202411075627 A) filed by Chairman, Defence Research & Development Organisation, New Delhi, on Oct. 7, 2024, for 'composite anti-vibration mount with improved elastomeric composite stack for enhanced low-frequency damping.'
Inventor(s) include Kunjumoideen, Shajahan; Renganathan Sivakami, Arun Sundar; Thiyyarkandy, Bejoy; and Adiyodi Veetil, Ramesh Kumar.
The application for the patent was published on April 17, under issue no. 16/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention relates to a composite anti-vibration mount comprising a casing (1), float/loading plate (2), elastomeric composite stack (3), base plate (4), and an in-situ formed encapsulation (5). This elastomeric composite stack is designed with oval holes (3C, 3D, 3E) for enhanced energy dissipation and vibration damping. This present invention features a unique and improved design for a composite passive anti-vibration mount with a 220kg capacity. The mount incorporates an elastomeric-carbon fiber composite, which is molded to achieve resonance frequencies between 14Hz and 16Hz. It provides effective low-frequency isolation starting from 21Hz, with enhanced vibration damping and shock isolation compared to similar commercially available mounts. This design is particularly suited for protecting machines and equipment from shock and vibrations in challenging marine environments. Additionally, it can be utilized for noise silencing and reducing vibration signatures on marine platforms."
