Abstract

See full text

A torsional vibration damper for a flywheel with two inertial masses has two rotating elements which can rotate together and relative to one another. The rotating elements are connected to one another with rotational elasticity by a spring. The spring is located in a channel which is formed on the outside periphery of one of the two rotating elements. The channel is filled at least partly with lubricant. A filling passage for the lubricant is contained in one of the two rotating elements in the vicinity of the hub. The filling passage is closed by the annular surface of a component which, at least in the operationally fully assembled condition, is in contact with one of the two rotating elements and/or the hub. It is thereby possible to eliminate a separate closing cap, along with the corresponding work step which is necessary for the installation of such a closing cap.
