Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a torque transmission device for low-vibration transmission of torque via at least one shaft, the torque transmission device having a drive element and a driven element connected to the drive element. Background technique
[0002] Torque transmission devices of the aforementioned type are used, for example, in the drive train of a motor vehicle (for example between a cardan shaft and a gearbox, between a drive shaft and a differential) and in a steering column arrangement. In these devices, torque is transmitted from one shaft to the other as losslessly as possible. However, due to such a direct coupling between the two shafts, possible vibrations and torsional vibrations are not properly damped resulting in audible noises in the passenger compartment of the motor vehicle. To this end, these torque transmission devices are provided with damping elements intended to counteract such vibrations and torsional vibrations. For exam...
