Abstract

A torque transmitting device for a drivetrain for transmitting a drive torque to an output element. The device having: an electric motor with a conversion unit, which comprises a stator and a rotor that is rotatable relative to the stator, for converting electrical energy into mechanical energy; and a torsional vibration damper with a damper mass received on a damper mass support such that the damper mass can be deflected to a limited extent against the action of a restoring force, the damper mass being arranged so as to overlap radially with the conversion unit.
