Abstract
Divided flywheel arrangements having a spring arrangement, and preferably also a slip clutch arrangement, accommodated in a lubricant bath, which is formed by an annular space limited radially outwards only by parts which are stationary relative to one another. Centrifugal forces acting on the lubricant cannot therefore force the lubricant against seals between mutually movable parts. Certain disclosed arrangements do not accommodate these parts in a lubricant bath.
