ABSTRACT:
A vibration damper for a friction clutch having a clutch plate secured to a spring assembly which is comprised of a retainer plate, a hub and three pairs of intertwined springs disposed in parallel resilient drive relation between the plate and hub. Two pairs of the springs are helical torsion springs, and each spring has a driven end and a drive end disposed in notches on the hub and annular slots in the plate, respectively, to permit a predetermined amount of angular movement therebetween while the third pair of springs are spiral springs which are connected at the ends thereof for continuous resilient torque transmission between the plate and hub. All of the springs are fulcrumed near the ends thereof to permit a more even distribution of the internal stresses in the springs during operation.
