Abstract
A speed-adaptive vibration damper for a shaft that rotates about an axis, having a hub part, on which are located a plurality of peripherally adjacent inertial masses that are movable along curved paths that increasingly approach the axis on either side of the masses. At least one relatively twistable inertial ring is elastically mounted on the hub part. When rotational vibrations set in, a change occurs in the distance of the inertial masses from the axis.
