Patent ID: 8267799

Claim:
A device for damping vibrations with at least one damper arrangement, comprising: an axis of rotation; a first damper part including: an outer circumferential portion including an inner surface and an oppositely facing outer surface; a space partially enclosed by the inner surface; and, a plurality of openings penetrating the material forming the first damper part and connecting the inner and outer surfaces; a second damper part including an abutment face, the second damper part arranged coaxially with respect to the first damper part and rotatable relative to the first damper to a limited extent in the circumferential direction; a stop element coupling said first and second damper parts to each other, fixed to the first damper part, at least partially disposed within the space, extending, in a direction parallel to the axis of rotation, from the space through the inner surface into an opening from the plurality of openings, and including first and second impingement areas; and, at least one first spring unit engaged with the first and second impingement areas and with the abutment face, wherein: the first damper part forms a guide channel in which the at least one first spring unit is at least partially disposed; and, the abutment face extends axially beyond the at least one first spring unit toward the opening.
