Abstract
A vibration-damping clutch disc with a hub from which a drive disc extends. Support rings on opposite sides of the drive disc are joined together by connections that pass through cutouts in the drive disc and are capable of transmitting torque. Intermediate rings are located between a central hub and each of the support rings and are joined to the hub by radially inner elastomeric damper rings. The intermediate rings have flanges joined by connections that also pass through cutouts in the drive ring. Radially outer elastomeric damper rings join the flange of each intermediate ring to the respective support ring, and one of the support rings has an outer flange with a friction ring on it to be pressed against a flywheel.
