TORSIONAL VIBRATION DAMPER

摘要

A torsional vibration damper arrangement for transmitting drive between first and second rotatable driveline components, the damper being mounted on the first component via a plurality of flexible mounting straps disposed generally circumferentially about the rotation axis of the components. Each strap is connected adjacent its ends to the damper or the first component and at an intermediate location to the other of the first component or damper so that torque can be transmitted between the damper and first component by placing half of each strap in tension depending on the direction of transmission of the torque whilst allowing the damper to swash relative to the first component as drive is transmitted through the driveline.
