A damper device includes a first member, a second member, an elastic member and a supporting member. The first member has two wall members separated from each other. The supporting member includes projections (preventing portion) that make contact with one of two wall portions (wall members) so as to prevent the supporting member and an elastic member from being inclined (falling, rotationally moving) in the axial direction.

A torsional vibration damping arrangement has an input region with a primary mass driven in rotation around an axis of rotation, and an output region. A first and a second parallel torque transmission paths (48), and a coupling arrangement having a planetary gear unit with a planet wheel element for superimposing the torques guided via the torque transmission paths are provided between the input region and the output region. A phase shifter arrangement with a first stiffness is provided in the first torque transmission path for generating a phase shift of rotational irregularities relative to rotational irregularities guided via the second torque transmission path. The phase shifter arrangement has a second stiffness supported on the one hand relative to the primary mass arranged so as to be at least partially axially and radially overlapping with respect to the planet wheel element.

A lock-up device includes a damper portion and a dynamic damper device. The damper portion damps vibration inputted from a front cover. The damper portion includes a driven plate coupled to a turbine shell of a torque converter body on a radially outside side. The dynamic damper device absorbs vibration transmitted from the driven plate to the turbine shell. The dynamic damper device includes at least one damper plate portion. The damper plate portion is coupled to the turbine shell on a radially outside side.

A damper device includes first inner springs configured to transmit a torque between a drive member and an intermediate member, second inner springs configured to transmit a torque between the intermediate member and a driven member, and a rotary inertia mass damper including a sun gear serving as a mass body rotating with relative rotation of the drive member to the driven member. The rotary inertia mass damper is provided in parallel to a torque transmission path including the intermediate member, the first inner springs and the second inner springs. A damping ratio ζ of the intermediate member determined based on a moment of inertia J.sub.2 of the intermediate member and rigidities k.sub.1 and k.sub.2 of the first and the second inner springs and is less than a value.

A damper device includes a damper unit and a torque limiter unit. The damper unit includes first and second plates each including a plurality of window portions, a hub flange including a plurality of window holes, and a stopper mechanism. The first plate includes an engaging portion and a fixing portion fixed to the second plate. The engaging portion and the fixing portion are disposed radially outside the plurality of window portions. The hub flange includes a protrusion disposed circumferentially between and radially outside adjacent two of the plurality of window holes. The stopper mechanism is configured to be actuated by contact of the protrusion with the engaging portion. A fixation member, by which the first plate and the torque limiter unit are fixed, is disposed circumferentially between adjacent two of the plurality of window portions as seen in a direction along a rotational axis.
