Abstract
A rolling vibration reduction device for an internal combustion engine includes: a main inertial system configured to rotate with a crankshaft of the internal combustion engine; a driving force transmission mechanism configured to transmit a rotational driving force of the crankshaft, a direction of the rotational driving force being reversed by the driving force transmission mechanism; and a sub-inertial system configured to rotate by the rotational driving force transmitted from the driving force transmission mechanism and to reduce rolling vibration of the internal combustion engine associated with rotation of the crankshaft by rotating in an opposite direction to the crankshaft. A torsional resonance frequency in the rolling vibration reduction device is set to a value higher than an explosion primary frequency at a maximum engine speed in a preset operating region of the internal combustion engine.
