Abstract
A torsional vibration damper assembly for use in a torsional coupling between a driving member and a driven member wherein the damper assembly provides a very low rate, high amplitude deflection. The damper assembly includes a hub adapted to be connected to a driven shaft and provided with a pair of oppositely extending arms, a driving plate having a pair of driving members cooperating with the hub arms, a pair of floating equalizers journalled onto the hub, and a plurality of damping springs positioned between the arms of the equalizers, the hub arms and the driving members.
