20150354664 | DAMPER DEVICE AND STARTING DEVICE - A damper device | 12-10-2015 |
20150337934 | DAMPER DEVICE AND STARTING DEVICE - A damper device includes a dynamic damper that has third springs coupled to an intermediate member and that also has, as a mass body coupled to the third springs, a turbine runner and a coupling member etc. The third springs of the dynamic damper are disposed so as to overlap both in the axial and radial directions of the damper device second springs that have higher rigidity than first springs and that are disposed inward of the first springs to transfer torque between a drive member and a driven member. | 11-26-2015 |
20140174869 | CENTRIFUGAL-PENDULUM VIBRATION ABSORBING DEVICE AND ORDER SETTING METHOD FOR THE SAME - A centrifugal-pendulum vibration absorbing device comprising having a support member coupled to a rotary element that is rotated by power from a drive device, and a mass body coupled to the support member so as to swing about a pendulum fulcrum and rotate about a center of gravity. An order of vibration of the mass body is determined on the basis of an order of vibration to be damped generated by the drive device in consideration of at least a rotational angle of the mass body about the pendulum fulcrum and a rotational angle of the mass body about the center of gravity. | 06-26-2014 |
20140174250 | CENTRIFUGAL-PENDULUM VIBRATION ABSORBING DEVICE AND ORDER SETTING METHOD FOR THE SAME - A centrifugal-pendulum vibration absorbing device disposed within a liquid chamber that stores a liquid, the centrifugal-pendulum vibration absorbing device having a support member coupled to a rotary element that is rotated by power from a drive device; and a mass body supported by the support member so as to be swingable. An order of vibration of the mass body is determined on the basis of an order of vibration to be damped generated by the drive device in consideration of at least a force caused by a centrifugal liquid pressure generated within the liquid chamber along with rotation of the drive device to act on the mass body. | 06-26-2014 |
20130256088 | ARC SPRING AND DAMPER APPARATUS - A spring retaining space that retains therein an arc spring has a predetermined curvature radius and attachment angle. The arc spring is flexed and retained in the spring retaining space, and thus the curvature radius of the arc spring becomes small, while the attachment angle of the arc spring becomes larger than a free angle. Accordingly, torsion stress with a negative sign is applied to a coil member forming the inner circumferential portion of the arc spring. | 10-03-2013 |
20120222515 | DYNAMIC VIBRATION ABSORBER - Rolling element bores are provided in the outer circumferential portion of a disk-like main body. Each rolling element bore has an arcuate outer rim. Rollers each have a groove formed on the peripheral edge and extending along the entire circumference of the roller. The outer rim of each rolling element bore engages with the groove of the associated roller so that the roller is loosely fitted in the rolling element bore. Shafts are respectively formed on both sides of each roller. The shafts project from the center of the roller. An elastic ring is mounted on each shaft. Annular guide plates are respectively mounted on both sides of the disk-like main body so that the shafts of the rollers are supported by the guide plates. | 09-06-2012 |
20110195793 | DAMPER HAVING TORQUE LIMITER FUNCTION - A damper includes an outer cover having a front cover and a rear cover. The covers are joined to form a lubricant oil accommodation chamber for accommodating liquid. A damper device, a limiter mechanism, a first plate including a first collar portion located toward the front of the limiter mechanism, and a second plate including a second collar portion located toward the rear of the limiter mechanism are arranged in the outer cover. The limiter mechanism includes a first limiter plate, which is an input side on the torque transmission path, a second limiter plate, which is an output side on the torque transmission path, and a limiter disc spring, which presses the limiter plates. | 08-11-2011 |
20110120832 | TORSIONAL DAMPER - A torsional damper includes a torque limiter and a damper. The torque limiter includes at least two friction members, allows transmission of torque, and prohibits transmission of excessive torque. The damper absorbs torsional vibration through resilient deformation of a spring. The torque limiter is a wet torque limiter in which the friction members are arranged in an oil chamber filled with lubricating oil. The damper is a dry damper in which the spring is not immersed in the lubricating oil. | 05-26-2011 |
20090247307 | DAMPER DEVICE - A damper device includes a drive plate; a driven plate; and a torque transmission mechanism having different types of damper springs. The torque transmission mechanism transmits torque of the drive plate to the driven plate via at least one of the damper springs, wherein the torque transmission mechanism is structured to allow a combination of damper springs acting during torque transmission to be changed at lease three times as a rotation angle of the drive plate relative to the driven plate becomes greater. Each of the damper springs can be extended and compressed circumferentially about the rotation axis and is disposed at the same radial position about the rotation axis. | 10-01-2009 |
