ABSTRACT:
A damper assembly for use with a rotatable shaft having a hub, an elastic material including an inwardly facing cavity in which the periphery of the hub is received, and an inertial ring including an inwardly facing cavity in which the elastic material is received. The elastic material extending radially-inward along opposite sides of the hub and being sandwiched between the hub and the inertial ring. The elastic material increases in axial width with increasing radial extension, and is maintained in axial compression between the hub and the inertial ring with the compression being uniform in terms of percent based on thickness. As used herein, the requirement of uniform axial compression refers to the compression of the elastic member being a uniform percent compression in terms of the thickness of the elastic member, as opposed to a uniform distance of compression.
