A suspension bushing is provided in a connection between a lower arm supporting a drive front wheel and a subframe. The suspension bushing includes an inner cylindrical portion secured to the subframe, an outer cylindrical portion secured to the lower arm, and a rubber resilient member joining the inner and outer cylindrical portions. A protrusion, provided on the rubber resilient member as a region receiving a load during acceleration of the vehicle, is arranged to have a greater spring constant than a portion of the rubber resilient member surrounding a second opening section provided as a region receiving a load during braking of the vehicle.

What is claimed is: 1. A vehicular anti-vibration structure for use with a vehicle, the structure comprising, a suspension arm supporting a drive wheel; a vehicle-body-side member; and a suspension bushing disposed in a connection between said suspension arm and said vehicle-body-side member and including: a body-side bushing member attached to said vehicle-body-side member; an arm-side bushing member attached to said suspension arm; and a resilient member joining said body-side bushing member and said arm-side bushing member, wherein said resilient member comprises: a first aperture having a first concave surface opposite a second concave surface, and a second aperture having a first concave surface opposite a second concave surface; a radial protrusion of said first aperture extending from said second concave surface of said first aperture toward said first concave surface of said first aperture, and a radial protrusion of said second aperture extending from said second concave surface of said second aperture toward said first concave surface of said second aperture and away from said radial protrusion of said first aperture, wherein said radial protrusion of said first aperture extends further than said radial protrusion of said second aperture; and at least one base end portion extending from said second concave surface of said first aperture toward said first concave surface of said first aperture. 2. The vehicular anti-vibration structure according to claim 1, wherein an arcuate top region of said radial protrusion of said first aperture contacts said first concave surface of said first aperture when the vehicle is accelerated. 3. The vehicular anti-vibration structure according to claim 1, wherein said at least one base end portion includes a first base portion and a second base portion. 4. The vehicular anti-vibration structure according to claim 3, wherein said first base portion abuts a first end of said radial protrusion and said second base portion abuts a second end of said radial protrusion. 5. The vehicular anti-vibration structure according to claim 1, wherein said radial protrusion of said first aperture extends further from said second concave surface of said first aperture toward said first concave surface of said first aperture than said at least one base end portion. 6. The vehicular anti-vibration structure according to claim 1, wherein a region of said resilient member that receives a load during acceleration of the vehicle has greater spring constant than another region of said resilient member that receives a load during braking of the vehicle. 7. The vehicular anti-vibration structure according to claim 1, wherein a region of said resilient member that receives a load during acceleration of the vehicle has a more linear load vs. displacement characteristic curve in a predetermined value range of the load during acceleration than another region of said resilient member that receives a load during braking of the vehicle. 8. The vehicular anti-vibration structure according to claim 1, wherein said suspension bushing is mounted to the vehicle with a previous positional displacement in a direction of a load received during acceleration of the vehicle. 9. The vehicle anti-vibration structure according claim 1, wherein a region of said resilient member that receives a load during acceleration of the vehicle includes a spring constant having at least two steps. 10. The vehicle anti-vibration structure according to claim 1, wherein said radial protrusion of said second aperture includes a flat top portion. 11. The vehicle anti-vibration structure according to claim 1, wherein said radial protrusion of said second aperture includes an arcuate top portion.
