Torque fluctuation absorbing apparatus

A torque fluctuation absorber, comprising:

• a flywheel fixed on a first rotating shaft by a fixation member,
• a damper unit connected with a second rotating shaft and for absorbing fluctuation of a torque occurred between the first rotating shaft and the second rotating shaft by elastic force,
• a limiter unit provided on a power transmission path between the flywheel and the damper unit, wherein the limiter unit induces a slide when the fluctuation of the torque exceeded a predetermined value, and
• a predetermined member rotating with the first rotating shaft on a power transmission path between the first rotating shaft and the limiter unit, wherein the predetermined member has a guide portion that prevents movement of the damper unit in a transverse direction to a rotating axis, and wherein the guide portion is provided at radially internal side of the fixation member,
• the predetermined member being a guide member made of an elastic body which is fixed on the first rotating shaft,
• wherein the damper unit comprises a plate member connected to the limiter unit, and a hub member connected to the second rotating shaft, and
• the guide portion contacts both the plate member and the hub member and prevents movement of both the plate member and the hub member in a direction transverse to the rotating axis.
