Abstract

A structure of a mounting bracket that connects a vehicle body and a transmission is provided. The structure includes an outer pipe having an insulator disposed therein and the insulator includes a plurality of stoppers having curved portions and a protrusion formed at an inner top portion of an aperture of the insulator and directed downwards. An inner pipe is coupled in the aperture of the insulator and a core is press-fitted into the inner pipe. The inner pipe and the core abut each other by the protrusion. Accordingly, vehicle dynamics control and quasi-static motion performance are improved, and operational noise, vibration, and noise attributable to vibration are reduced. Since the outer pipe and the inner pipe are made of plastic, the weight of the structure is decreased. Further, a decrease in the gap between stoppers is achieved without a swaging process.
