Abstract

The invention relates to a hydrodynamic torque convertor with a bridging coupling and a torsion spring arrangement. In the power path behind the torsion spring arrangement there is an auxiliary gyratory mass which makes it possible to reduce the vibration-related balancing-out process to a very low speed level.
