Abstract

An energy transmission control mount comprises a carrier having a first major surface, an opposite second major surface and an aperture provided therein. Channels are provided adjacent opposite and of the first surface. Vibration dampening material is provided on the carrier. The vibration dampening material substantially lines the channels and the aperture and extends over at least a portion of the second surface.

Claims (30)

1 . An energy transmission control mount comprising:

a carrier having a first major surface, an opposite second major surface and an aperture provided therein;

channels adjacent opposite ends of said first surface; and

vibration dampening material on said carrier, said vibration dampening material substantially lining said channels and said aperture and extending over at least a portion of said second surface.

2 . An energy transmission control mount according to claim I wherein the vibration dampening material substantially lining said channels is isolated from the vibration dampening material substantially lining said aperture and extending over at least a portion of said second surface.

3 . An energy transmission control mount according to claim 2 wherein the vibration dampening material substantially lining said aperture and extending over at least a portion of said second surface also extends over a portion of said first surface.

4 . An energy transmission control mount according to claim 3 wherein on said second surface, the vibration dampening material is configured to define a series of spaced ribs.

5 . An energy transmission control mount according to claim 4 wherein said ribs are parallel and are generally equally spaced.

6 . An energy transmission control mount according to claim 4 wherein on said first surface, the vibration dampening material is configured to define a disc.

7 . An energy transmission control mount according to claim 6 further comprising a washer disposed on said disc.

8 . An energy transmission control mount according to claim 7 wherein the vibration dampening material forming said disc also substantially lines the aperture of said washer and terminates at a flange overlying a portion the washer to retain the washer to said disc.

9 . An energy transmission control mount according to claim 3 wherein said flange is annular.

10 . An energy transmission control mount according to claim 1 wherein opposite ends of said carrier are folded back over said first surface to define said channels.

11 . An energy transmission control mount according to claim 10 wherein said channels are sized to receive flanges of a furring channel.

12 . An energy transmission control mount according to claim 11 wherein the vibration dampening material substantially lining said channels is isolated from the vibration dampening material substantially lining said aperture and extending over at least a portion of said second surface.

13 . An energy transmission control mount according to claim 12 wherein the vibration dampening material substantially lining said aperture and extending over at least a portion of said second surface also extends over a portion of said first surface.

14 . An energy transmission control mount according to claim 13 wherein on said second surface, the vibration dampening material is configured to define a series of spaced ribs.

15 . An energy transmission control mount according to claim 1 wherein said vibration dampening material is permanently bonded to said carrier.

16 . An energy transmission control mount according to claim 3 wherein, said vibration dampening material is permanently bonded to said carrier.

17 . An energy transmission control mount according to claim 13 wherein said vibration dampening material is permanently bonded to Said carrier.

18 . An energy transmission control mount assembly to reduce transmission of energy between a first building structure and a second building structure, comprising:

a channel-like member adapted to be secured to the first building structure;

a carrier receiving and retaining said channel-like member, said carrier being adapted to be structurally secured to said second building structure and

vibration dampening material acting between at least one of said channel-like member and carrier. and said carrier and second building structure.

19 - 30 . (canceled)

31 . An energy transmission control mount to act between a pair of components comprising:

a carrier having a first major surface and an opposite second major surface and an aperture provided therein;

vibration dampening material on said carrier, said vibration dampening material substantially lining said aperture and extending over at least a portion of said second surface, the vibration dampening material extending over said second surface being configured to bear against one of said components; and

retaining structure on the first surface of said carrier adapted to retain a second of said components.

32 - 36 . (canceled)
