Hydrodynamic torque converter and torsional vibration damper for same

Abstract

A hydrodynamic torque converter and a torsional vibration damper for same, having a pump wheel connected on the drive side and a turbine wheel driven thereby, wherein a torsional vibration damper and an output part are provided between a housing of the hydrodynamic torque converter and an output hub. The torsional vibration damper having an input part that can be connected to the housing by a converter lock-up clutch, and said output part being connected to the output hub, wherein an intermediate flange arranged in each case counter to a spring device effective in the circumferential direction is provided between the input part and the output part. In order to protect the spring devices against damage in a manner not affecting the installation space, an angle of rotation of the intermediate flange counter to the effect of the spring devices is limited radially inside the spring.
