Abstract
A torsion damper, for example for a motor vehicle, comprises two coaxial parts which are mounted for rotation with respect to each other against the action of springs. One of these coaxial parts comprises an annular damper plate arranged between two annular radial plates which are secured together through an annular spacing element which surrounds the springs. The damper plate has arms acting on the springs, while the radial plates are fixed in rotation to stop elements. At least one of the circumferential ends of each spring is associated with a resilient element which extends the spring circumferentially, while radial displacement means, carried by either the springs or the spacing element, permit radial displacement of each of these resilient elements.
