A lid adapted to be mounted on the cylinder head of an internal combustion engine
by attachment screws includes a cap and a carrier element adapted to be attached
to the cylinder head by the attachment screws. To achieve an improved sound decoupling,
the cap and the carrier element are connected to an elastomer component, with the
connection between the cap and the carrier element being, at least in part, exclusively
constructed by the elastomer component, and with a space being provided between
the cap and the carrier element. The carrier element possesses a substantially
straight section arranged to extending preferably at a right angle to the attachment
surface of the cylinder head, the substantially straight section of the carrier
element, a portion of the elastomer component adjacent the cap, and a portion of
the cap adjacent the carrier element extend in a straight line.
