They are typically installed between the engine and transmission. One of the flywheels is fixedly connected to the engine's output shaft, driving its rotation. The other flywheel is attached to the transmission's input shaft, transmitting power to the transmission.

[0003] The utility model patent application document with publication number "CN211525429U" discloses a dual-mass flywheel, which is mainly composed of a primary flywheel, a secondary flywheel, an elastic member and a bearing. This technical solution can provide multi-stage vibration reduction.

[0004] The dual-mass flywheel disclosed in the above document has the following defects: the bearings in the dual-mass flywheel will generate a large amount of heat during long-term use. If this heat cannot be evaporated in time, it will affect the service life and use effect of the bearings and the dual-mass flywheel, and its practicality is poor.

[0005] It can be seen from this that the bearings of the existing dual-mass flywheel cannot discharge the heat generated during use in a timely manner. It is necessary to improve the existing shortcomings and provide a dual-mass flywheel. Utility Model Content

When the engine is started, the ring gear of the first-stage flywheel 1 is meshed with the starter gear, and the gear drives the first-stage flywheel 1 to rotate, and the arc spring 4 rotates along with the first-stage flywheel 1. The rotating arc spring 4 drives the cover plate 3 and the bearing 5 to rotate through the second-stage flywheel 2. When the arc spring 4 is compressed, it compresses the long spring first, and when it is compressed to a certain angle, it compresses the short spring, thereby achieving a secondary shock absorption effect;
