1. A frequency tuned resonance damper assembly, comprising: a plate portion with a hole, the plate portion being attached to a surface, the vibrations of which are to be dampened; an elastic element; and an elastically suspended mass, the mass being elastically suspended from the plate portion by the elastic element and having a holding member, the elastic element having tapered sidewalls, the elastic element including a first gripping member and a second gripping member, the elastic element being inserted into the hole so that the first gripping member engages with the hole in the plate portion, the second gripping member engages with the holding member of the elastically suspended mass, and the elastic element tapers at a location between the plate portion and the elastically suspended mass, wherein the elastic element and the elastically suspended mass are tuned so that vibrations of the surface are counteracted though phase-shifted movement of the elastically suspended mass.
