Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0113004A1] A torsional vibration damper (16) for use in drive lines having an input member (17) for connection with an associated engine and an output member (26) for connection with an associated driveline, these members being relatively rotatable via a support bearing (30) acting therebetween against the action of a torsional damping means to damp torsional vibrations in the associated driveline. The torsional damping means is in the form of circumferentially disposed springs (18) acting to oppose relative rotation of the input and output members and a linkage means (28, 35) interconnecting the input and output members and which generates a speed dependent damping effect. The springs and linkage means are located side by side in an axial sense. The damper may be used in combination with an Electro-magnetic combined Starter, Alternator and Damping unit (10) and in particular mounted within a rotor element (11) of such a unit.
