Abstract
An apparatus for damping a flywheel includes a drive plate integrally connected to a crankshaft. A flywheel is connected to receive a rotating force from the drive plate through planetary gearing, and is mounted to rotate relative to the crankshaft. A rigidity imparting means is disposed on a path along which a rotating force is transferred between the drive plate and the flywheel. A mass body is provided on the flywheel, and is configured to perform relative rotation in a direction that offsets a torsional vibration of an engine transmitted to the flywheel.
