Claim 0:
1. A centrifugal pendulum including:
a first support plate being rotatable about a rotation axis;
a second support plate facing the first support plate in an axial direction and being fixed to the first support plate; and
a mass disposed between the first support plate and the second support plate in the axial direction;
wherein the first support plate has a first protrusion extending axially, and the first protrusion is integrally formed with the first support plate and defines a first track;
wherein the mass has a through hole extending axially, and the through hole defines a second track;
wherein the first protrusion extends into the through hole such that the first track faces the second track in a radial direction; and
wherein a roller is disposed between the first track and the second track in the radial direction, and is capable of rolling against the first track and the second track, such that the mass is movable relative to the first support plate and the second support plate and can apply a torque onto the first support plate and the second support plate.
