Abstract
A vibration damper is provided with two rotating members, i.e. an oscillating inertial flywheel and a member to be damped driven by a torque following a torque path between a driving member and a driven member, wherein the inertial flywheel is connected kinematically to the torque path between the driving member and the driven member solely by way of the member to be damped. Connecting modules between the two rotating members permit a relative angular displacement θ between the two rotating members on the two sides of a reference relative angular position. Each connecting module is provided with a roller associated with a first of the two rotating members and a cam track connected resiliently by a resilient element to a second of the two rotating members.
