An engine system is provided with a crankshaft gear coupled to a crankshaft of an engine for rotation therewith, and a balance gear coupled to a balance shaft for rotation therewith. The balance gear and crankshaft gear are in meshed engagement. The balance gear is formed by a series of sectors connected by a series of resilient blocks, with each sector defining first and second recesses along opposite radial edges sized to receive adjacent blocks, respectively. Each elastomeric block is configured to deform both normally and in shear thereby providing damping for the gear. A gear such as the balance gear, and a method of forming the gear are also provided.

A damping arrangement (1) for damping radial vibrations in a rotating shaft (2), the damping arrangement (1) comprising at least one first damping element (3), at least one second damping element (4), and a bearing arrangement (5) operably engaging the first damping element (3) and the second damping element (4). The bearing arrangement (5) comprises a first bearing member (6), a second bearing member (7), and a reference (8). The first bearing member (6) is rotatably mounted on the shaft (2) so that radial movement of the shaft (2) is transferred to the first bearing member (6), and is operably connected to the second bearing member (7) by the first damping element (3) and by a first steering structure (9). The first steering structure (9) allows only reciprocating movement of the first bearing member (6), and the shaft (2), in a first radial direction (D1), and the first damping element (3) dampens the reciprocating movement in the first radial direction (D1) with respect to the second bearing member (7). The second bearing member (7) is operably connected to the reference (8) by the second damping element (4) and by a second steering structure (10) allowing only reciprocating movement of the second bearing member (7), the first bearing member (6), and the shaft (2), in a second radial direction D2. The second damping element (4) dampens the reciprocating movement in the second radial direction (D2) with respect to the reference (8).

A flywheel apparatus includes a damper, and a mass ring including a first surface facing a first side in an axial direction, a second surface facing a second side and a first circumferential surface facing an inner side in a radial direction. The apparatus includes a drive plate including a first wall portion including a third surface being in contact with the second surface, and a plurality of protruding portions, each of the plurality of protruding portions including an end surface configured to fit to the first circumferential surface. The drive plate is configured such that the mass ring is concentrically attachable to the drive plate by the fitting of the end surfaces and the first circumferential surface to each other.

An automotive driveline component includes a housing and a dampener carried by the housing. The dampener includes a plurality of shims joined together via at least one joint through which vibrations are transmitted among individual shims of the plurality of shims. When the housing experiences vibrations during use of the automotive driveline component, the vibrations are transmitted to the plurality of shims and relative movement among individual shims of the plurality of shims dampens the vibrations experienced by said housing.

A damping member support for non-torsional force bypass around a torsional damping member includes a damping member engagement portion configured to be coupled to the torsional damping member and an intermediate portion configured to transmit a non-torsional force between a shaft and the torsional damping member.

A torque transmitting device that can be rotatably mounted about an axis of rotation includes a series damper having a first damper unit, a second damper unit and a coupling unit. The first damper unit has a damper output side and the second damper unit has a damper input side. The coupling unit is arranged between the damper output side of the first damper unit and the damper input side of the second damper unit. The coupling unit has a first coupling part and a second coupling part, wherein the first coupling part and the second coupling part are arranged axially offset in relation to one another. The first coupling part connects the damper output side of the first damper unit to the second coupling part. The second coupling part connects the first coupling part to the damper input side of the second damper unit.
