Abstract:
An absorber for damping vibrations in a rotating component, comprising a primary part connectable to the rotating component so as to be fixed against rotation relative thereto; an absorber mass; said primary part and said absorber mass being couplable to one another via a coupling having spring and damping elements so that said absorber mass is rotatable to a limited extent relative to said primary part; at least two antifriction bearings for mounting said absorber mass on the rotating component; said two antifriction bearings being nested within one another, so that one of said antifriction bearings is seated on a larger radius than the other; an intermediate ring disposed in a radial direction between said two antifriction bearings, and a holder connecting said intermediate ring to fixed surroundings for fixation of said intermediate ring against rotation relative to the fixed surroundings.
