ABSTRACT:
A hub element of the vibration damper is adapted for connection to a shaft and has a first circumferentially extending support surface. An inertia element surrounds the hub element and has a circumferentially extending second support surface. An elastomeric member is compressed between these surfaces and mounts the inertia element on the hub element with freedom of vibration. An arrangement is provided on one or the other of the elements for continuously varying the characteristic frequency of vibration of the damper, by subjecting the elastomeric member in axial or radial direction to continuously variable compression.
