Claims4
A device for damping oscillations of a crankshaft, comprising:
- a hub for being mounted on the crankshaft;
- a ring-shaped housing filled with one of viscous fluid and elasticoviscous fluid and fixedly mounted on the hub;
- a flywheel located in the ring-shaped housing;
- a torsionally elastic coupling for connecting a belt pulley, which transmits a torque to the crankshaft, with the hub and arranged parallel with the flywheel;
- and
- bearing means to be mounted between at least one of outer surface of the housing and an outer surface of the hub and an inner surface of the belt pulley.
