Abstract
A vibration canceler includes a dimensionally stable inertial mass that is retained by a spring element made of a flexible material. A metal clamping element is mounted to the spring element and the clamping element and the inertial mass are fastened frictionally to one another through a wall of a recess in said inertial mass. The recess may be tapered in the direction of insertion of the spring element, to ensure a good frictional fit.
Claims7
A vibration canceler comprising:
- an inertial mass comprising a recess;
- and
- a spring element made of a flexible material, said spring element comprising a metal clamping element mounted to said spring element, said metal clamping element being frictionally fastened to a wall of said recess of said inertial mass by being pressed into said recess, thereby preventing said spring element from exiting said recess, said recess having a cross-sectional area which continuously diminishes in a press-on direction.
