An oscillation limiting mechanism (4) is integrally provided to an engine mount (3) (a vibration proof mount device) of a power plant (P) mounted on an automobile in a traverse mount fashion. Not only is a stopper metal member (40) in the shape of an inverted U letter disposed so as to cross over a mount body portion ( 30), but a stopper rubber (42) is formed so that it protrudes from the rear end of a casing of the mount body portion (30) toward the rear side of the vehicle body. Not only is a hollow portion (43) formed in the interior of the stopper rubber (42), but a metal core body (44) is also embedded in the stopper rubber ( 42) so as to be revolvable around an axis in the vehicle body traverse direction as if it were a link. With such a construction adopted, the stopper rubber (42) is shear-deformed in the vertical direction with comparative ease even in a state where it is brought into contact with the rear side leg portion (40c) of a stopper metal member (40) and thereby receives a compressive force in the vehicle body longitudinal direction, and a dynamic spring constant of the mount (3) in the vertical direction does not rise so much even if the stopper acts in rapid acceleration or the like; therefore, enabling increase in surrounding sound in acceleration to be suppressed with a simple structure less of cost up while oscillation of the power plant (P) is limited in a similar way to that of a torque rod.

What is claimed is: 1. A vibration isolating mount device for elastically supporting one of left and right end portions of a power plant mounted on a vehicle with a length direction of the power plant aligned in a traverse direction of a body of the vehicle, the vibration isolating mount device having an oscillation limiting mechanism for limiting oscillation of the power plant in a roll direction thereof, wherein the oscillation limiting mechanism has a receiving member for a force in a vehicle body longitudinal direction receiving at least a compressive force in the vehicle body longitudinal direction between a member of the vehicle body and a member of the power plant facing each other in the vehicle body longitudinal direction, the receiving member is constructed of: a rubber portion and a core body made of a material higher in stiffness than the rubber portion and provided integrally with the rubber portion in a single piece at least so as to be revolvable around an axis in the vehicle body traverse direction by a predetermined angle or more, a hollow portion is formed in the rubber portion of the receiving member at least so that the core body can be revolved around an axis in the vehicle body traverse direction, the hollow portion is formed so as to communicate with outside the rubber portion and at least one of inner walls in front and rear portions of the rubber portion enclosing the hollow portion has a swell portion swelling relatively into the hollow portion on one of upper and lower sides thereof, the core body being embedded at least in the swell portion. 2. The vibration isolating mount device of claim 1, wherein the hollow portion of the receiving member for a force in the vehicle body longitudinal direction is formed so as to pass through the rubber portion in the vertical direction and the swell portion is formed at a site relatively in the lower side in the hollow portion.
