Abstract:
A vibration-damping device for damping vibrations of a vibrative member of a vehicle, comprising:at least one rigid housing member being fixable to the vibrative member; and a plurality of independent mass members disposed non-adhesively and independently in said at least one housing member such that each of said plurality of independent mass members is opposed to said at least one housing member with a given spacing therebetween in a vibration input direction, and is displaceable relative to said at least one housing member, said each of said plurality of independent mass members being independently displaceable relative to said at least one housing member so that said each of said plurality of independent mass members and said housing member are brought into elastic impact against each other at respective abutting surfaces thereof which are opposed to each other in said vibration input direction.
