5 TECHNICAL FIELD
Present disclosure, in general, relates to a field of automobiles. Particularly, but not exclusively, the present disclosure relates to mounting devices. Further, embodiments of the present disclosure relates to a mounting device for configuring a motor of an electric vehicle.
10
BACKGROUND OF THE DISCLOSURE
Generally, vehicles include a number of frictionally engaged components such as
motors, pumps, engine, gears from a gearbox, cultch, and the like, which may
generate noise and vibrations during operation or during engagement with other
15 components. While most of the vibrations are generated due to the driving unit such
as the engine in an internal combustion engine vehicles and a motor in electric /
hybrid vehicles, other components may also contribute to vibrations in the vehicle.
Further, vibrations from each component may vary in amplitude, direction and other
factors based on the component.
20
Even though the components are rigidly fixed in the vehicle, the vibrations may
require to be suppressed using dampener mountings. Conventionally, such
mountings are designed to absorb vibrations generated in vehicle components. For
example, a motor mount is disposed between a vehicle body and a motor of the
25 vehicle to support the motor, where the mounts are defined with a core that is
connectable to the vehicle component.
Conventionally, the motor mounts are designed similar to engine mounts, without consideration to variation in type of loads, amplitude of loads, direction of loads in
30 the motor. Hence, such designs of the motor mounts may not be compatible with
motors and may cause vibrations that transmit to the cabin of the vehicle. Furthermore, such motor mounts may be prone to damage and/or failure in view of considerations involved in designing the motor mount. For example, the direction of load on the motor mount varies more frequently in comparison to variation of
35 load direction on the engine mount. Further, conventional motor mounts are not
suitable to bear such varying loads. Furthermore, existing motor mounts are

5 designed considering static stiffness parameters of the mount, which may result in
damage and/or failure of the mounts in short period.
The present disclosure is directed to overcome one or more limitations stated above or any other limitations associated with the conventional mechanisms.

Figures 1a and 1b refer to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure which illustrates a different views [top view and perspective view] of a motor (1) mounted on a portion a vehicle [not shown explicitly in figures]. In an embodiment,
30 the vehicle may include, but not limited to, an electric vehicle, a hybrid vehicle and
the like having the motor (1), where the motor (1) is coupled to a plurality of wheels of the vehicle to drive the vehicle. In the illustrative embodiment, the vehicle is an electric vehicle, where the motor (1) is rotated in an opposite direction during regenerative braking in the vehicle, whenever the brakes are applied. In an
35 embodiment, the motor (1) may rotate in a clockwise direction during driving the
plurality of wheels, whereas the motor (1) may also rotate in an anti-clockwise

5 direction during regenerative braking of the vehicle. The vehicle comprises a
chassis (10) structured to receive components of the vehicle including the motor
(1), cabin, and the like. The motor (1) is connectable to a portion of the chassis (10).
In an embodiment, the motor (1) is depicted to be connected to the chassis (10) on
either sides of the vehicle. In the illustrative embodiment, the motor is depicted to
10 be connected to long members of the chassis. However, the motor (1) may be
mounted on one of the subframe, cross-members, and the like of the chassis,.
The vehicle may comprise a plurality of mounting devices (100) coupled between the chassis (10) and the motor (1) for configuring the motor (1) in the vehicle. In
15 the illustrative embodiment, the vehicle comprises a connecting bracket (12)
mounted on a portion of the motor (11) and structured to extend between the chassis (10) and the motor (11). The connecting bracket (12) may be detachably coupled to a portion of the motor (1) or may be integrally defined on a portion of the motor (1). In the illustrative embodiment, the connecting brackets (12) are depicted as
20 detachably coupled between each end of the motor (1) and the mounting device
(100) as can be clearly seen in Figure 1a. In an embodiment, the connecting bracket (12) may be defined by one of a U-shaped profile, an L-shaped profile, and the like based on design requirements of the motor (1) and the plurality of mounting devices (100). The motor (1) may be mounted on a portion of the chassis (10) by at least
25 two mounting devices (100) on one side of the motor (1) as can be seen in Figure
1. For the sake of explanation, the motor (1) is depicted to be mounted by four mounting devices (100) at four ends of the motor (1). However, the number of mounting devices (100) and position of the mounting devices (100) may be varied based on load requirements of the motor (1) and the vehicle and the same shall not
30 be construed as a limitation.
Referring now to Figures 2a and 2b, the mounting device (100) comprises a base
(1) connectable to a portion of the vehicle. The base (1) is detachably connected to
the chassis (10) to mount the motor (1) on the chassis (10). The base (1) may be
35 defined with a plurality of apertures (9) defined at a periphery to receive a plurality
of fasteners for mounting the motor (1). In the illustrative embodiment, the base (1)

5 is depicted with plurality of apertures (9) at four corners of the base (1) to allow
easy mounting and detachment of the motor (1) and the mount from the chassis (10). However, the number of apertures (9) and position of the apertures (9) may be varied based on design requirements of the mounting device (100). The base (1) is connected to the chassis (10) on one side and is connectable to the motor (1) on
10 an other side opposite to the side being connected to the chassis (10). The base (1)
may be defined by one of a cuboidal member, disc shaped member, a cubical member, a rectangular plate, a square plate and the like. In the illustrative embodiment, the base (1) is depicted as a rectangular plate defined with the plurality of apertures (9) at corners of the cuboidal shape to easily mount the motor (1) on
15 the chassis (10) through the mounting device (100).
Referring again to Figure 2a, the mounting device (100) comprises a core (2) extending from a portion of the base (1). In an embodiment, the core (2) is structured to extend outwardly from a central portion (1a) of the base (1) as can be
20 clearly seen in Figure 2a. In an embodiment, the core (2) may be integrally defined
on the base (1) or may be detachably connected to the base (1) at the central portion (1a). The core (2) is defined with a mounting provision (6) to couple with a portion of the motor (1). The core (2) is configured to receive the external force such as vibrations, load of the motor (1) and the like from the motor (1) for damping. In an
25 embodiment, the core (2) may be solid or may be hollow. The mounting device
(100) comprises a housing (3) enclosing the core (2) in a spaced apart configuration. The housing (3) extends outwardly from the base (1) and parallel to the core (2). The housing (3) may be defined by a plurality of walls surrounding the core (2) at a predetermined space from the core (2) as can be seen in Figures 2c. In an
30 embodiment, the mounting device (100) comprises a plurality of ribs (8) defined
across the housing (3) connecting the base (1) and the housing (3) as can be seen in Figure 2a. The plurality of ribs (8) are configured to provide reinforcement to the housing (3) and the base (1) against weight of the motor (1) and external forces from the motor (1).
35

5 Further, the housing (3) and the core (2) may extend perpendicular to the base (1)
or may extend at an inclination with the base (1) based on design requirements. In the illustrative embodiment, the housing (3) and the core (2) are depicted to be extending perpendicular to the base (1) to receive the connecting bracket (12) at the central portion (1a) of the base (1) as can be seen in Figure 2c. In an embodiment,
10 the base (1) and the housing (3) may be integrally formed by casting, where the
core (2) may be detachably coupled to the housing (3). The mounting provision (6) is defined on a surface of the core (2) and is configured to extend outwardly from the core (2) as can be seen in Figure 2c. The mounting provision (6) is defined with one or more holes to receive the connecting bracket (12) by a plurality of fasteners.
15 The mounting provision (6) may be defined by one of an extension, a slot, a groove
and the like defined on the core (2). In the illustrative embodiment, the mounting provision (6) is depicted to be extending outwardly from the core (2) and extending out of the housing (3) to allow easy attachment and detachment of the connecting bracket (12) and the motor (1). In an embodiment, the shape of the housing (3) may
20 resemble the shape of the core (2) in the spaced apart configuration to maintain a
predetermined space between the housing (3) and the core (2) as can be clearly seen in Figure 2c. In an embodiment, the shape of the housing (3) and the core (2) may be selected from one of a rectangle, a square, a triangle, a hexagon and the like. The shape of the housing (3) and the core (2) may be varied based on design
25 requirements of the mounting device (100).
Referring again to Figures 2a and 2b, mounting device (100) comprises a first plurality of damping members (4) disposed on opposing sides of the core (2). Each of the first plurality of damping members (4) are configured to contact the housing
30 (3) upon receiving an external force from the motor (11). The first damping
members (4) are disposed on an outer surface of the core (2) on opposing sides of the core (2) as can be clearly seen in Figure 2b allow progressive contact of the core (2) with the housing (3). The first damping members (4) are disposed at a predefined gap from the housing (3) to selectively contact the housing (3) based on the
35 magnitude of the external force. The predefined gap allows displacement of the core

5 (2) upon receiving external force from the motor (1). In the illustrative embodiment,
the predefined gap is in a range of 6 mm to 8 mm to delay contact of the first damping members (4) with the housing (3) due to sudden external forces such as torque from the motor (1). In an embodiment, each damping member (4) of the first plurality of damping members (4) is defined with an arcuate profile as can be seen
10 in Figure 2b and Figure 2d. The arcuate profile may be defined by one of a semi-
circular profile, a triangular profile, and the like, where the profile is configured to gradually contact the housing (3) upon receiving the external force. In the illustrative embodiment, the first damping members (4) are defined by a semi-circular profile having a plurality of splines (7) spaced apart along periphery of each
15 damping member (4) as can be seen in Figure 2c. In such configuration, middle or
centrally located splines of the plurality of splines (7) is configured to contact the housing (3) first, followed by other splines (7) adjacent to the centrally located splines, where the outermost splines (7) are configured to contact the housing (3) later when the core (2) is displaced relative to the housing (3) due to the external
20 force. In an embodiment, the core (2) may be displaced in a vertically upward
direction and a vertically downward direction, where the first damping members (4) contact an inner surface of the housing (3). Such configuration of the first damping members (4) gradually contacting the housing (3) reduces the dynamic stiffness factor of the mounting device (100) for improved isolation of the external
25 force from the vehicle at higher excitation/vibration frequencies. Further, the
mounting device (100) reduces hardening rate of the first plurality of damping members (4). The configuration of the mounting device (100) with reduced dynamic stiffness enhances NVH (noise, vibration and harness) performance of the vehicle at higher frequencies of the external force from the motor (1). For example,
30 the external force from the motor (1) may include but not limited to, vibration
forces, forces in clockwise and anti-clockwise directions due to change in rotational direction of the motor (1), weight of the motor (1), forces due to displacement of motor (1) while the vehicle is moving and the like.

5 Referring now to Figure 2c, the mounting device (100) comprises a second plurality
of damping members (5) disposable along a periphery of the housing (3) and each damping member (5) of the second plurality of damping members (5) is configured to connect the housing (3) and the core (2). The second damping members (5) are configured to damp vibrations received from the motor (1). In an embodiment, each
10 damping member (5) of the second plurality of damping members (5) are disposed
in a spaced apart configuration with each other in the housing (3) as can be seen in Figure 2c. For the sake of explanation, the mounting device (100) is depicted with four damping members (4) of the second plurality of damping members (4) spaced apart along the periphery of the housing (3). The space between the plurality of
15 second damping members (5) may be defined based on profile of the core (2), to
dampen vibrations in different directions by the second damping members (5). In the illustrative embodiment, the second damping members (5) disposed in spaced apart configuration to dampen the external force in multiple directions. In the illustrative embodiment, the core (2) is defined as a cuboidal member where the
20 second damping members (5) are disposed against four edges of the cuboidal
member and inner surface of the housing (3) as can be seen in Figures 2a and 2b. Such configuration of the second damping members (5) dampens vibrations in all three directions i.e., along x, y and z axes due to spaced apart configuration of the second damping members (5). In an embodiment, profile of the second damping
25 members (5) may be selected from at least one of a cubical profile, a cuboidal
profile, an L-shaped profile and the like. In an embodiment, the core (2) is defined with a lateral axis (A-A’) extending in a lengthwise direction of the motor (1) as can be seen in Figure 1 and Figure 2b. The first damping members (4) and the second damping members (5) may be disposed in a predetermined configuration
30 relative to the lateral axis (A-A’). In the illustrative embodiment, the first plurality
of damping members (4) and the second plurality of damping members (5) are configured symmetrical relative to the lateral axis (A-A’) of the core (2). The second damping members (5) extend in a lengthwise direction of the motor (1) to dampen the external force while the motor (1) rotates in both directions i.e., in
35 clockwise direction and anti-clockwise direction.

5
In an embodiment, the mounting device (100) having first and second damping
members (4, 5) dampens external forces from the motor (1) in different directions
during operation of the vehicle for recuperation and damping turning forces in the
motor (1) during operation of the motor (1).
10
In an embodiment, the mounting device (100) provides higher predefined gap
between the core (2) and the housing (3) to allow free travel for smooth progression
during sudden receipt of external forces from the motor (1).
15 In an embodiment, the mounting device (100) has reduced dynamic stiffness factor
for improved isolation of the external force from the vehicle at higher excitation/vibration frequencies.
In an embodiment, the mounting device (100) reduces hardening rate of the first
20 plurality of damping members (4) for improved damping of the external forces from
the motor (1).
In an embodiment, the configuration of the mounting device (100) with reduced
dynamic stiffness enhances NVH (noise, vibration and harness) performance of the
25 vehicle at higher frequencies of the external force from the motor (1).
