Abstract

The flywheel elements are connected to one another in drive terms via a spring mounting, an abutment of which is movable relative to the associated flywheel element against the resistance of a second spring mounting and a non-positive coupling arranged parallel to the second spring mounting. Furthermore, a second non-positive coupling, subject to play, is connected between the flywheel elements and is limited resiliently in at least one direction.
