Abstract

A damper mechanism 4 has a clutch plate 21 and a retaining plate 22 disposed aligned in the axial direction, a hub flange 6 disposed relatively rotatably in the axial direction between the plates 21 and 22, and a second coil spring 8 for elastically linking the plates 21 and 22 to the hub flange 6 in the rotational direction. The plates 21 and 22 have a pair of first main body components 28, and a plurality of linking components 31 that are disposed in the rotational direction between first protrusions 49 and second protrusions 57 and that link the pair of first main body components 28. The plurality of linking components 31 is disposed such that adjacent pitches are different.
