Abstract
A damping assembly which is interposed between two coaxial flywheels in the power train between the crankshaft of the engine and the transmission of an automobile has a friction generating device which is operative within a certain range of angular movability of the flywheels relative to each other to enhance the versatility and damping characteristics and to render it possible to more accurately conform such damping characteristics to the circumstances under which the flywheels are put to use.
