Definitions
- the present invention relates to a rotational vibration damper comprising a base part rotatable around an axis of rotation and an inertial mass part which is rotatable relative to the base part and counter to the reset force of a reset device, wherein the reset device has a spring unit for generating a set force and a lever element arranged on the base part pivotable around a pivot point, via which lever element the set force can be transmitted by generating the reset force affecting the inertial mass part.
- a rotational vibration damper is known from DE
- the reset device has a base part in the form of a support plate rotatable around an axis of rotation.
- An inertial mass is arranged on the support plate which is rotatable counter to the reset force of a reset device relative to the base part.

- the flexible spring which extends in a radial direction and which is arranged on the one hand on the base part and on the other hand on the inertial part.
- the flexible spring functions to generate a set force which directly affects the inertial mass if the inertial mass is rotated
- the support of the inertial mass in the radial direction on the support plate is carried out on the side of the support plate facing outward in the radial direction, wherein bearing shells are arranged for this purpose on the support plate, on which bearing shells the inertial mass is supported in the radial direction and guided in the circumferential direction.
- the known rotational vibration damper is disadvantageous insofar as that a relatively large and thus installation space intensive flexible spring is necessary for the reset device, particularly as this reset device must be arranged on the one hand on the inertial mass and on the other hand on the support plate.
- a further rotational vibration damper is known from DE 10 2014 001 043 Al which partially overcomes the disadvantages of the previously described rotational vibration damper.
- the reset device thereof likewise has a spring unit for generating the set force; however, the reset device has in addition a lever element arranged on the base part pivotable around a pivot point, via which lever element the set force of the spring unit is transmitted while generating the reset force affecting the inertial mass part.
- the spring unit of the reset device generating the set force does not have to directly affect the inertial mass part, but instead may be arranged elsewhere on the base part of the rotational vibration damper, by which means a space- saving and flexible arrangement of the spring unit on the rotational vibration damper is possible, in particular further inward in the radial direction.
- the support of the inertial mass part in the radial direction on the base part is not carried out on the side of the base part pointing outward in the radial direction, as is the case for the rotational vibration damper according to DE 199 07 216 CI.

- inertial mass part 20 is supported or is supportable on base part 18 in radial direction 8, 10 exclusively via lever element 30.
- each support force transmission path of a support force for supporting inertial mass part 20 in radial direction 8, 10 on base part 18 runs across lever element 30.
- a support force transmission path may run for example across roller bracket 64, roller 60, lever element 30, and pivot point 34.
- Another support force transmission path may extend over roller bracket 64, roller 60, lever element 30, force transmission element 32, spring element 46, and clamp 50.
- inertial mass part 20 might, however, also be supported or be supportable in radial direction 8, 10 on an adjacent component of the drivetrain; however, it is preferred if inertial mass part 20 is supported or is supportable in radial direction 8, 10 exclusively via lever element 30 such that a simplified structure and a particularly low wear may be achieved, particularly as it has been shown that the support of inertial mass part 20 in radial direction 8, 10 exclusively via lever element 30 is sufficient to guarantee a secure support and mounting.
- a reset force characteristic curve of reset force 70 affecting inertial mass part 20 is additionally
- characteristic curve of set force 68 exerted by spring unit 28 at set force engagement point 66 on lever element 30 may be changed for this purpose while changing the reset force characteristic curve.
- This may be carried out preferably by changing the effective length b of flexible spring or leaf spring 48.
- Effective length b of flexible- or leaf spring 48 may thereby be changed basically in two ways.
- articulation point 44 may be designed to be displaceable along flexible- or leaf spring 48 in order to increase or to reduce effective length b.
- effective length b may be changed or varied by a change of clamping length a.
- clamp 50 might be displaceable for example along
- a further force transmission element 74 is respectively used at each of the reset devices 26, here at both reset devices 26.
- Force transmission element 74 is in turn formed as a bend-proof or rigid force transmission lever.
- force transmission element 74 is supported and articulated on the one side at an articulation point 76 on lever element 30, wherein articulation point 76 is in turn formed as a set force engagement point 78.
- articulation point 76 is in turn formed as a set force engagement point 78.
- articulation point 42 or set force engagement point 66, articulation point 76 or set force engagement point 78 is provided, however, on an end section of second lever section 38 of lever element 30 facing away from pivot point 34.
- force transmission element 74 extends to a further articulation point 80 on spring element 46 of the respectively other reset device 26 of the two reset devices 26.
- Articulation point 80 of the one reset device 26 thereby corresponds to articulation point 44 of the other reset device 26. Consequently, the pivot movements of lever element 30 of the two reset devices 26 are not only coupled to each other via
- spring unit 28 of the one reset device 26 which identically forms a spring unit 28 of the other reset device 26, and vice versa.
- spring unit 28 of the one reset device 26 is also assigned to the other reset device 26, and vice versa.
- Figure 4 is likewise implied in Figures 2 and 3, in which the further force transmission element 74 is indicated at least be dashed lines.
- FIG. 5 shows a third embodiment of the rotational vibration damper 2, which substantially corresponds to the first or second embodiment according to Figures 1 through 4, such that subsequently only the differences shall be addressed, identical reference numbers are used for identical or similar parts and the previous description correspondingly generally applies.
- spring element 46 in the form of flexible- or leaf spring 48 is clamped in the third embodiment in such a way that a spring section 82 arranged outwardly in the radial direction 8 is clamped via clamp 50 such that effective length b is provided inwardly in radial direction 10 relative to clamp 50.
- Figure 6 shows a fourth embodiment of
- FIG. 7 shows a fifth embodiment of rotational vibration damper 2, which substantially corresponds to the previously described embodiments, such that subsequently only the differences shall be
- individual spring element 46 of the respective reset device 26 is formed as flexible- or leaf spring 48 with clamp 50.
- a further force transmission element 74 is provided. However, this does not extend to spring element 46 of the respectively other reset device 26, but instead to the other end of spring element 46 of the associated reset device 26.
- the set force characteristic curve may be changed while changing the reset force characteristic curve, for example by a displacement of clamp 50, wherein spring element 46 in the form of flexible- or leaf spring 48 hereby has a center clamping length a and two outer effective lengths b.
- a single large flexible- or leaf spring 48 might also be provided which forms both spring element 46 of the one and also of the other reset device 26, as this is
- Figure 8 shows a sixth embodiment of rotational vibration damper 2 which corresponds
- pivot point 34 of lever element 30 is not provided centered on lever element 30. Pivot point 34 is instead provided on the end section of second lever section 38 facing away from first lever section 36. Consequently, pivot point 34 in the sixth embodiment is not arranged with reset force engagement point 58 on a common radial 72, if inertial mass part 20 is located in the starting rotational position thereof of if lever element 30 is located in the starting pivot position thereof according to Figure 8.
- inertial mass part 20 is further supported or is supportable on base part 18 via lever element 30 in at least one axial direction 4; 6, here in both axial directions 4, 6. It is hereby
- this support is achieved in axial directions 4, 6, in that support part 56 is supported or is
- roller 60 forming support part 56 has a peripheral groove 88 in the rolling surface on the outer side of the roller, in which groove the side of lever element 30 having support track 40 extends outwardly in radial direction 8, 10 - here outward in radial direction 8. Consequently, roller 60, which forms support part 56, is supported or is supportable on base part 18 by lever element 30 extending into groove 88 in axial direction 4 as well as in axial direction 6 via lever element 30.
- This first embodiment variant according to Figure 9 represents a particularly easy to manufacture embodiment variant, particularly as groove 88 may be generated relatively easily in roller 60 forming support part 56.
- Figure 10 shows a further embodiment variant in the area of lever element 30 and support part 56.
- groove 90 is formed in the side of lever element 30 facing support part 56, wherein support part 56 - here in the form of roller 60 - extends into groove 90 in radial direction 8, 10 - here in radial direction 10 - in order to effect a support of inertial mass part 20 on base part 18 in both axial directions 4, 6 via support part 56 and via lever element 30.
- inertial mass 20 is exclusively supported or is supportable on base element 18 via lever element 30 in axial direction 4, 6.
- each set force transmission path of a set force for supporting inertial mass part 20 on base part 18 in axial direction 4, 6 runs across lever element 30.
- a corresponding set force transmission path might run for example across roller bracket 64, support part 56 in the form of roller 60, lever element 30, and pivot point 34 in order to affect a support in axial direction 4, 6 on base part 18.
- a set force transmission path of this type might also run across roller bracket 64, roller 60, lever element 30, one of set force transmission elements 32 and/or 74, and spring unit 28 in order to affect the support of inertial mass part 20 in axial direction 4, 6 on base part 18. This does not need to exclude that inertial mass part 20 is supported or is supportable in at least one of axial directions 4, 6 on another component within a drivetrain; it is however preferred if inertial mass point 20 is supported or is supportable exclusively via lever element 30 in axial direction 4 and/or 6.
