A filtering pulley has a hub configured to be fixed to a shaft for rotation thereabout, a crown mounted coaxial and rotationally free on the hub, and a plurality of elastic groups arranged circumferentially with respect to the hub and to the crown and interposed, each, between a pair of first elements integral with the hub and between a pair of second elements integral with the crown. The first elements have at least two spokes, carried by an actuator that is made of two portions that can be selectively coupled based on angular position data between the crown and the hub and/or based on data of torque transmitted between the different elements of the system comprising this pulley.

The first elements have at least two spokes, carried by an actuator that is made of two portions that are selectively geared between them to selectively connect the crown to the hub.

A filtering pulley assembly for an accessory drive of a vehicle has a hub fixedly attachable to a rotating shaft, a pulley mounted coaxial and freely rotating on said hub, an actuator disc carried by the hub, a plurality of elastic assemblies interposed between the pulley and the actuator disc, and a torque limiting coupling configured to rotationally connect the actuator disc to the hub, when the torque is below a predetermined threshold value, and to decouple the actuator disc from the hub, when the torque is above the threshold value.
