The invention concerns a torsional damper with circumferential action for a motor vehicle double flywheel, designed to be arranged between the double flywheel primary and secondary flywheels, the primary flywheel being designed to be connected to the vehicle engine crankshaft and the secondary flywheel being 60 designed to receive a clutch mechanism, comprising a first element (10) adapted to be connected to one of said flywheels, a second element (20) adapted to be connected to the other flywheel, said damper comprising elastic means (30, 40) associated with friction means, said elastic means consisting of at least a first spring assembly (30) functioning in series via first phasing washers (51, 53): said elastic means further comprise a second spring assembly (40) functioning in series via second phasing washers (52, 54), said first and second nests of springs (30, 40) functioning in series via a phasing assembly (60).
A circumferentially acting torsion damper for a double flywheel for a motor vehicle, to be disposed kinematically between the primary and secondary flywheels of the double flywheel, the first flywheel being adapted to be connected to the crankshaft of the engine of the vehicle and the secondary flywheel being adapted to receive a clutch mechanism, of the kind comprising a first element (10, 110) adapted to be connected to one of the said flywheels and a second element (20, 120) adapted to be connected to the other one of the said flywheels, the said damper including resilient means (30, 40) associated with friction means, the said resilient means consisting of at least one first group (31, 32, 33) of springs (30) working in series through interposed first phasing rings (51, 53, 151, 153), characterised by the fact that the said resilient means include a second group (41, 42, 43) of springs (40) working in series through interposed second phasing rings (52, 54, 152, 154), the said first groups (31, 32, 33) and second groups (41, 42, 43) of springs (30, 40) working in series through an interposed phasing assembly (60, 160).
