Abstract

A pendulum damping device including a mounting to rotate about an axis; at least one pendulum body that includes first and second pendulum masses axially spaced relative to each other and movable relative to the mounting, the first pendulum mass being axially placed on a first side of the mounting and the second pendulum mass being axially placed on a second side of the mounting, and at least one member to connect the first and second pendulum masses and couple the masses; and at least one rolling member that guides the movement of the pendulum body relative to the mounting. The rolling member engages with a rolling track secured to the mounting and with a rolling track secured to the pendulum body and defined by the connecting member. The rolling member exerts an axial clamping force on one of the pendulum masses during movement of the one pendulum mass relative to the mounting.
