Abstract
A vibration damping device that can prevent interference between a rolling mass and a cover resulting from deformation of the cover caused by pressure rise, and that can suppress noises is provided. The torsional vibration damping device comprises: a rotary member that is arranged in a torque converter; a rolling mass that is oscillated relatively to the rotary member by torque pulse; a bore that is formed on an outer circumferential portion of the rotary member in such a manner as to penetrates through the rotary member in a direction parallel to a rotational center axis; a cover that covers the rolling mass and the bore liquid-tightly to protect from oil in the torque converter; and a deformation-preventing member that prevents a deformation of the cover in a direction toward the rolling mass.
