VRIDNINGS-VIBRATIONSDEMPARE

摘要

A vibration damper assembly for use in a torsional coupling between a driving member and a driven member wherein the damper assembly provides for a very low rate, high amplitude deflection. The vibration damper includes a hub to be received on a driven shaft, two or more groups of springs having multiple springs of the same or various rates within each group operating in series through the use of floating or transfer members movable arcuately relative to the hub, and one or more spring deflection limiting members permitting the tailoring of the damper characteristics more precisely to the requirements of a given coupling assembly.
