A torsional vibration damper in which a first inertial ring is arranged at least in part radially on the outside of an inner ring and is bonded to it by an intermediate ring of rubber, the intermediate ring resting axially against the inertial ring with the avoidance of gaps and adhesion, the inertial ring being bonded to the intermediate ring substantially only in the region of its inside diameter, and a belt travel ring being additionally bonded to the intermediate ring and surrounding the inertial ring radially on the outside at least in a partial region.

Torsional vibration damper

A belt pulley with a substantially cup-shaped profile that is delimited on one side, in at least the axial direction, by an integrally shaped-on rim flange is disclosed. The rim flange is configured as the hub ring of a torsional vibration damper, the hub ring being connected, by means of a damping ring made of elastomeric material, to an inertial ring.

Belt pulley

Belt pulley having a substantially cup-shaped profile that is delimited on one side, at least in the axial direction, by an integrally shaped-on rim flange is disclosed. The rim flange is configured as the hub ring of a torsional vibration damper; the hub ring is connected, by a damping ring made of elastomeric material, to an inertial ring.

An inside ring (1) and an outside ring (2) are mounted about a common axis (3) and are joined to one another in a rotationally elastic manner by at least one elastic body (4) of elastomeric material. The elastic body (4) is bonded only to one of the rings (1, 2) and is supported in a relatively rotatable manner on the other ring (2, 1) by at least one friction layer (7) to limit the transmittable torque.

Rotational vibration damper

A speed-adaptive torsional vibration damper, with a flywheel which encircles a hub ring, and in which the hub ring and flywheel are at least temporarily connected to one another by first and second spring elements made of a rubber-like material. The second spring elements are distributed uniformly around the circumference of the hub ring. The second spring elements are capable of expanding in the radial direction under the action of centrifugal forces that result at high rotational speeds, and thereby are forced into engagement with the flywheel. When viewed in the circumferential direction, the second spring elements are delimited by a stop face which projects in the direction of the flywheel and which mates with a congruently shaped cavity of a third spring element also of a rubber-like material. The third spring elements are affixed to the flywheel. The stop face and the cavity have a radial clearance between each other in the non-rotating state of the torsional vibration damper.
