AI Technical Summary
Existing torsional vibration dampers have problems such as high cost and large space occupation during installation and manufacturing, and the friction elements are susceptible to overload and wear.
A torsional vibration damper with a friction element that can rotate relative to a cover element was designed. By optimizing the connection and centering of the friction element and the cover element, the installation is simplified and the load on the friction area is reduced. A diaphragm spring is used as the axial spring element to achieve precise orientation and rotational accommodation of the friction element.
It achieves lower cost and simpler installation and manufacturing, reduces the risk of wear on friction elements, lowers the load on the friction area, and improves the efficiency of torsional vibration dampers.
