Abstract:
1. A damper apparatus for an input shaft of a transmission, comprising: a flywheel having a reception space in which an inertial body is provided so as to be rotatable relative to the flywheel; the input shaft extending into the reception space of the flywheel with the input shaft being rotatable relative to the flywheel; and an inertial body assembly including the inertial body; wherein friction plates of the inertial body assembly are operably coupled to the input shaft, and the friction plates directly frictionally engage each other to allow hysteresis when the drive plate and the inertial body rotate relative to each other; wherein the inertial body of the inertial body assembly is elastically coupled to the input shaft so as to provide rotational inertial force to the input shaft; and wherein the inertial body of the inertial body assembly is disposed in the reception space spaced from the flywheel.
