Abstract
A pendulum-type torsional damping device comprises oscillating masses () mounted movably on a support (). Each oscillating mass () is intercalated circumferentially between a first adjacent oscillating mass () and a second adjacent oscillating mass (). Each oscillating mass () is mounted movably on the support () by a rolling contact via a single bearing element () associated with that oscillating mass, and a sliding contact between one of terminal edges () thereof and a terminal edge () of the second adjacent oscillating mass (), which forms a radial retention edge for that oscillating mass (). The device allows effective pendulum damping to be obtained with a limited number of bearing elements.
