Patent ID: 8465371

Claim:
A torsional vibration damper assembly for a hydrodynamic coupling device, comprising: a primary side having a plurality of cover disk elements; a secondary side which is rotatable with respect to the primary side about an axis of rotation against an action of a plurality of damper springs, the secondary side comprising a central disk element engaging between said plural cover disk elements; and a turbine wheel with a turbine wheel shell; wherein said plural cover disk elements are fixedly connected to one another on a radial outer side of the damper springs and one of the cover disk elements that is located directly adjacent to the turbine wheel shell is fixedly connected to the turbine wheel shell on a radial inner side of each of said plural damper springs by connection elements of a first set of connection elements; and wherein the connection elements of the first set of connection elements do not produce a fixed connection between the cover disk elements on the radial inner side of each of said plural damper springs and said plural cover disk elements are fixedly connected to one another on the radial inner side of the damper springs by connection elements of a third set of connection elements, wherein the turbine wheel shell is fixedly connected to a directly adjacent cover disk element by the connection elements of the third set of connection elements.
