Abstract

A tuned mass vibration damper for damping a vibration component of a rotational movement, includes at least three damper masses, at least one guide component part to movably guide the at least three damper masses such that the damper masses are arranged so as to be offset along a circumferential direction perpendicular to an axis of rotation and can carry out the oscillations, and a damping component part rotatable around the axis of rotation of the rotational movement opposite to the at least one guide component part and which comprises a support structure and at least two damping structures connected to the support structure. The damping structures extend radially from the support structure and are constructed and arranged such that one damping structure of the at least two damping structures when making contact with one of two adjacent damper masses prevents a contact of the two adjacent damper masses.
