Abstract
The torque variation absorbing device comprises a driving plate, a flywheel, and a spring mechanism, a torque limiting mechanism and a hysteresis mechanism installed between the driving plate and the flywheel. The torque limiting mechanism is located radially inside of the spring mechanism and radially inside of an oil drain hole bored in the flywheel. The side plate at one side of the driving plate is bent toward the flywheel and covers a gap between the driving plate and the flywheel. The side plate at the other side of the driving plate is made of a steel plate and the load supporting points on both sides of the side plate are spaced from each other in the radial direction.
