Abstract
A torque fluctuation inhibiting device configured to inhibit torque fluctuations is disclosed. The torque fluctuation inhibiting device comprises a first rotor, a second rotor disposed to be rotatable relative to the first rotor, a centrifugal element, and a cam mechanism. The centrifugal element is configured to receive a centrifugal force generated by rotation of the first rotor. The centrifugal element is disposed to be movable with respect to the first rotor. The centrifugal element includes an engaging portion configured to be engage with the first rotor. The centrifugal element is formed by a plurality of components. The cam mechanism is configured to generate a circumferential force in movement of the centrifugal element and the circumferential force reduces relative displacement between the first rotor and the second rotor.
