20110201433 | DEVICE FOR DAMPING VIBRATIONS - A device for damping vibrations comprising at least two coaxially arranged damper parts rotatable relative to each other to a limited extent in the circumferential direction, coupled by torque transmitting means and damping coupling means, which exhibit at least one energy accumulator unit, and forming the impingement areas for the energy accumulator units. At least one damper part forms a guide channel for the energy accumulator units. The individual impingement area on the damper part forming the guide channel for the energy accumulator units is formed by a stop element, connected in a torsion proof manner at least indirectly to the damper part and forms the abutment faces in the guide channel in the circumferential direction. The abutment face is capable of supporting the energy accumulator unit on both sides of the impingement area on the energy accumulator unit and is a part of the other damper part. | 08-18-2011 |
20120255394 | CENTRIFUGAL PENDULUM MECHANISM - The invention relates to a centrifugal pendulum mechanism, having at least one pendulum mass support and at least one pendulum mass arranged thereon, which pendulum mass can be moved to a limited extent radially relative to the pendulum mass support by means of at least one rolling element inside raceways formed by recesses in the pendulum mass support and the pendulum mass and in the circumferential direction, the rolling element having guiding means formed in the gap between the individual pendulum mass and the pendulum mass support. The invention includes means for reducing the gap size between the pendulum mass and the pendulum mass support in an at least spatially limited manner are provided outside the raceways for the rolling element and outside the range of the intermediate space between the pendulum mass and the pendulum mass support that can be converted by the guiding means. | 10-11-2012 |
