The invention relates to a tuned mass damper or vibration damper which, with the aid of an assembly (2) of a plurality of stacked, specially shaped or bent leaf springs (2.1), can be adapted over a certain range to the disturbance frequencies acting on a component to be damped or of the vibration system to be damped, the position of the damper mass (1, 34) being changed essentially only slightly. The invention relates in particular to one- and two-dimensionally effective tuned mass dampers. The tuned mass dampers according to the invention are suitable in particular for installations, vehicles and machines that undergo frequent changes in rotational speed, resulting frequently in disturbance frequencies that become noticeable, in particular, in the form of structure-borne sound, or other vibrations.
