Dampened gear system
11703116 · 2023-07-18 · ·

The present invention relates to a dampened gear system for reducing gear rattle. More specifically, a dampened gear system includes a first gear vibrationally isolated from a second gear. At least one damper prevents rotational engagement between the first gear and second gear until a rotational load is applied. When a rotational load is applied, the at least one damper is compressed, resulting in at least one lug on the second gear contacting an engagement surface on the first gear, allowing the rotational load to be mechanically transferred from one gear to the other gear.
