Abstract
A torque fluctuation damper pulleyis provided with a torque fluctuation damping elastic memberbetween a hubattached to a rotational shaft and a pulley member. The torque fluctuation damping elastic memberincludes a pair of rubber membersA andB which sandwich a support portionof the pulley memberunder equal elastic forces from the front and rear in the axial direction of the pulley memberto joint the hub with the pulley memberelastically. Thus, the pulley memberalways has equal forces being applied thereto from the front and rear in the axial direction, so that it becomes possible to make unnecessary any thrust bearing which would otherwise be required for positioning the pulley memberin the axial direction.
