VIBRATION DAMPING DEVICE, PARTICULARLY A DUAL-MASS FLYWHEEL

摘要

The invention relates to a dual-mass flywheel comprised of a primary mass, which can be connected to the output shaft of an engine, and of a secondary mass, which can be connected to the input shaft of a transmission, these masses being positioned concentric and axial to one another by means of at least one bearing and being able to rotate relative to one another in a limited manner against the action of a damping device with energy storage mechanisms. The energy storage mechanisms are accommodated in an annular ring-like chamber, which is formed by the components of the primary mass and which contains a viscous medium. ® KIPO & WIPO 2008
