Abstract

A tuned mass damper for damping a vibration component of a rotational movement around an axial direction includes a damper mass configured to perform an oscillation to damp the vibration component, a damper mass carrier to movably guide the damper mass, and a supporting body in contact with or to enter into contact with the damper mass in at least one operating state of the tuned mass damper. The supporting body has a catch structure d the damper mass carrier has a catch aperture via which the supporting body is connected to the damper mass carrier to secure the supporting body relative to the damper mass carrier in axial direction.
