Technical Field

The invention relates to a dual mass flywheel, which is composed of the following components: a primary part and a secondary part which can be twisted relative to each other about an axis of rotation in a limited manner; a spring damper system comprising an arcuate spring acting between the primary portion and the secondary portion; a friction device having at least one spring-force-loaded friction ring; and a centrifugal force pendulum associated with the secondary part.

Background

Rotational vibration dampers are generally known. The torsional vibration damper serves to damp rotational vibrations or torsional vibrations (torsoschwingung) in the drive train of a vehicle driven by an internal combustion engine, in order to damp vibrations from the internal combustion engine to a certain extent relative to the drive train and thus to increase driving comfort. The dual-mass flywheel (ZMS) which is preferably used, in the available speed range between idling speed and maximum speed, has an effective damping due to its low torsional strength. The natural frequency of the ZMS, which is below idling speed, may be experienced when starting or stopping the internal combustion engine. The increased vibration amplitudes occurring in this case lead to increased noise generation of the transmission and/or the clutch and to additional component loading in the ZMS. To avoid this disadvantageous effect, it is known to integrate additional friction devices and centrifugal force pendulums into the ZMS.

The invention DE 102012220519 a1 shows a ZMS or rotary vibration damper with a two-part secondary part, wherein a tensioning mechanism is provided between two flange elements. The spring damper system connected with the primary part and the secondary part comprises an arc-shaped spring integrated into a spring space and a friction device. On the secondary part side or directed in the axial direction, the rotary vibration damper is covered or closed by a firmly designed cover which is fastened at the end face to the outer contour of the primary mass part.

DE 102014211603 a1 shows a dual mass flywheel having a primary part and a secondary part, which are connected via a spring damper system (also referred to as an arcuate spring system). The multi-part secondary part comprises an arcuate spring flange cooperating with a spring damper system and a driven flange, also referred to as driven hub, which are connected via a friction device embodied as a torque limiter. The dual mass flywheel furthermore comprises a centrifugal force pendulum and a secondary part which is centered on a guide flange of the primary part via a driven flange.

Disclosure of Invention

The object of the present invention is to provide a dual-mass flywheel which can be produced inexpensively and is safe to operate, and which has a structure which is optimized with respect to components and installation space.

According to the invention, this object is achieved by a dual mass flywheel constructed according to the features of claim 1. Advantageous embodiments are specified in the dependent claims.

According to the invention, the dual mass flywheel according to the invention comprises a secondary part which is constructed in one piece and is operatively connected to the arcuate springs of the spring damper system by means of outer flange sections which are each designed as arcuate spring flanges. Furthermore, the secondary part forms, for example, a driven hub to be connected with the shifting clutch and is centered via a retaining element fastened on the primary part. In addition, the dual mass flywheel constructed according to the invention is covered on the driven-side end face by a thin-walled sheet metal.

In contrast to the known solutions, a dual mass flywheel with optimized installation space can be achieved by the construction of the secondary part in one piece, the elimination of a separate curved spring flange and the use of a thin-walled sheet material for covering the ends instead of a solid thick-walled sheet material. For example, the use of a one-piece secondary part eliminates the need for a rivet connection to join the arcuate spring flange to the driven hub. Furthermore, according to the invention, the dual mass flywheel also comprises a friction device and a secondary part with an associated centrifugal force pendulum and an effective centering.

A dual mass flywheel comprising the measures according to the invention advantageously requires a reduction in the installation space of 10 to 20% in the axial direction or axial direction of the dual mass flywheel compared to previous solutions. At the same time, the ZMS according to the present invention includes a reduced component size associated with weight reduction, which enables simplified installation, thereby generally yielding the desired cost advantage over heretofore dual mass flywheels. Advantageously, a compact dual mass flywheel can be realized with the concept according to the invention without negatively affecting the operational safety.

According to a preferred embodiment, a centering device is provided for centering the secondary part in the inner region of the dual mass flywheel, the centering device comprising at least one pot-shaped or curved holding element which is fastened to the primary part. Provided herein are: the holding element is simultaneously positionally fixed via the screw connection with which the primary part is fastened to the crankshaft flange of the internal combustion engine. The secondary part or its section designed as a driven flange is supported and/or guided on the holding element directly or indirectly in combination with further components.

Preferably, the centering of the secondary part is effected on locally bent sections of the holding element which jointly form the centering diameter. The secondary part is guided and centered on the outer contour of the section that is inserted into the complementary recess or window of the secondary part. On the end side, the section projecting axially relative to the secondary part forms a tooth profile which is defined for radially oriented cup spring tongues or fingers of the cup springs, which are assigned to the friction device. The preferred tooth profiles are provided for each segment with shoulders separated by axial slots, which in the peripheral direction form lateral recesses or ramp profiles and/or latching profiles, which are defined for the disk spring tongues of the disk spring. The centering shoulder has, for example, a lateral recess of the disk spring tongue which is defined for centering and has a latching contour. While the outer shoulder includes a uniformly obliquely extending ramp profile which is defined for the otherwise differently designed cup spring tongue than the centered cup spring tongue. An alternative design of the tooth profile provides the segments with two axial slots, the shoulders of which have side recesses which run uniformly in one direction and which have a ramp profile and a final latching profile. The tooth profile is provided for a disc spring having three identically shaped disc spring tabs.

For mounting, the cup spring is first brought into a position in which a positional alignment occurs between the cup spring tongues and the axial slots in the retaining element, after which the cup spring is moved axially and then locked in a positive-locking (kraftschl ü ssig) and/or positive-locking (formschl ü ssig) manner by means of a torsion in a locking contour or locking contour of the shoulder of the retaining element.

According to the invention, the centering of the secondary part can also be achieved by means of a pot-shaped holding element which is fastened to the primary part and in which a likewise pot-shaped bearing disk fastened to the secondary part engages and is supported or guided in an accommodation of the holding element which is open in the direction of the spring damper system. Advantageously, the centering is thus positioned in a construction space which is axially delimited by the primary part and the secondary part and is therefore protected.

The invention comprises axially guided friction rings as friction means on both sides of the secondary part, which are surrounded on the outside by the retaining element. Based on this arrangement a friction device is obtained in combination with the centering portion. The first friction ring is supported by the secondary part on a radial section of the holding element. The second friction ring is loaded on the side facing away from the secondary part by a disk spring supported on the lateral edge of the holding element, the spring force of which causes a non-positive contact of the two friction rings on the secondary part, which contributes to an advantageous low-noise friction device.

An alternative friction device (which is combined with a centering located between the primary part and the secondary part) comprises two friction rings inserted into receptacles of the holding element, which are guided axially on both sides of a support disk connected to the secondary part. The disk spring provided for force loading is supported directly on the friction ring oriented toward the secondary part. The friction ring is supported on a radially oriented skirt on the end side of the retaining element.

The dual mass flywheel according to the invention, which emphasizes a compact design, furthermore comprises a centrifugal force pendulum, which is assigned to the secondary part and is positioned between the curved spring arrangement and the centering. The pendulum mass part is arranged on both sides of the flange-like secondary part in a manner that allows limited movement. In order to avoid axial overshoots, the pendulum masses are assigned to stepped sections of the secondary part. For this purpose, the primary part has an axial recess in the region of the pendulum mass part, which ensures an unimpeded function of the centrifugal pendulum.

A plate material which is provided according to the invention for the driven-side covering of a dual mass flywheel and which is made of a thin-walled metal material and is designed in the form of a disk is fastened to the primary part. The sheet metal designed with a sheet metal thickness S of 1.8mm or less is preferably permanently fixed to the primary part in a material-locking manner, in particular by means of a weld seam produced by laser welding. In order to achieve a defined positioning and simple handling during the pre-assembly, the sheet metal disk forms an outer circumferential edge, which partially surrounds the outer contour of the primary part. As a measure for the force-locking support of the sheet metal disk (which simultaneously protects the spring space against dirt penetration), the sheet metal disk can be fastened to the primary mass part with an axial pretension. The sheet metal is thus force-locked in the installed state and is supported tightly on the secondary part.

The dual-mass flywheel constructed according to the invention, the structural space of which is optimized in the axial direction, is preferably suitable for a drive train comprising a dual clutch. Irrespective of whether the double clutch is implemented as a wet clutch or as a dry clutch, the double clutch requires a larger installation space in the axial direction, which is advantageously provided according to the inventive idea.

Detailed Description

Fig. 1 shows a dual-mass flywheel (ZMS)1, also referred to as a rotary vibration absorber, which is arranged in the drive train of a vehicle between a crankshaft (not shown) of an internal combustion engine and a vehicle clutch (not shown), in particular embodied as a double clutch. The torque of the internal combustion engine is transmitted from the vehicle clutch to the drive wheels, for example, via the shift transmission and the differential transmission in conjunction with the cardan shaft. The dual mass flywheel 1 comprises a primary part 2, also referred to as primary mass part, and a secondary part 3 or secondary mass part, which can be rotated relative to one another about an axis of rotation 5 in a limited manner against the force of a spring damper system 4. The primary part 2 comprises a disk-shaped flange 7 on the drive side, which is fastened to the crankshaft flange 6 and surrounds the spring damper system 4 with its outer, bent-over side 8.

On the clutch side or on the output side, a thin-walled, disk-shaped sheet metal 9 is fastened by laser welding (indicated by a weld seam 10) to the side edge 8 in a material-locking manner. The sheet 9 extends radially as far as the section of the secondary part 3 that performs the function of the driven hub 11 and at the same time partially surrounds the side edge 8 with a skirt 12. The secondary part 3, which is formed in a disk-like manner in one piece, forms on the outside two flange sections 13 (shown in fig. 4) which are offset by 180 ° relative to each other and are in operative connection with the arcuate springs 14 of the spring damper system 4. The centering 15 of the secondary part 3 comprises a pot-shaped or bent retaining element 16, which is fastened together with the primary part 2 to the crankshaft flange 6 by means of a screw connection 17.

Two bent sections 18 (shown in fig. 3) of the holding element 16, which are offset by 180 ° from one another, engage in corresponding recesses 19 of the secondary part 3. The section 18 of the holding element 16 simultaneously surrounds a friction device 20, which comprises a friction ring 21, 22 on each side of the secondary part 3, wherein the friction ring 21 is interposed between the radial section of the holding element 16 and the secondary part 3, and the friction ring 22 is interposed between the secondary part 3 and the cup spring 23. The two friction rings 21, 22 press non-positively against the secondary part 3 via a disk spring 23 supported on a lateral rim 24 of the holding element 16. The dual-mass flywheel 1 furthermore comprises a centrifugal force pendulum 25 of known design and mode of action, whose pendulum masses 26, 27 are arranged movably on both sides of the secondary part 3. As a measure for reducing the axial overall length of the dual mass flywheel 1, a recess 28 is provided in the primary part 2 for the pendulum mass 26.

Fig. 2 shows a further exemplary embodiment of a dual mass flywheel according to the invention, wherein identical reference numerals are used for identical components. The following description is largely limited to different designs.

The dual mass flywheel (ZMS)31 shown in fig. 2 differs from the ZMS 1 according to fig. 1 essentially by having a different centering 32 and a different friction device 37. The centering 32 located within the dual mass flywheel 31 is formed by a pot-shaped retaining element 33 which, similarly to fig. 1, is fastened together with the primary part 2 to the crankshaft flange 6. A pot-shaped support disk 35 fastened to the secondary part 3 is guided into a receptacle 34 of the holding element 33 that is open in the direction of the centrifugal force pendulum 25 and is supported via bent side edges 36 on the end sides. The friction means 37 comprise friction rings 38, 39 positioned on either side of the support disc 35. The friction ring 39 is acted upon by a disk spring 40 which bears against a lateral edge 41 of the support disk 35 and causes the friction rings 38, 39 to bear in a non-positive manner against the primary part 2 and the secondary part 3. In contrast to the exemplary embodiment according to fig. 1, the dual mass flywheel 31 comprises, for the end-side covering, a sheet metal part 42 which is limited to the covering of the spring damper system 4.

Fig. 3 to 6 clearly illustrate the details of the centering portion 15 and the friction means 20 according to the embodiment shown in fig. 1. Fig. 3 shows a perspective view of a pot-shaped retaining element 16 as a component and comprises two sections 18 offset by 180 ° from one another, which are flanged inward on the end side. Each two axially extending slots 43, also referred to as notches, of the segments 18 form a tooth profile 50 with three shoulders. A central shoulder 44 with a lateral recess extending in the peripheral direction forms a latching contour 45 for a central cup spring tongue 46 of cup spring 23 shown in fig. 5. Outer shoulder 47 forms a uniformly obliquely extending ramp profile 49 which is defined for an outer guide tongue 48 of cup spring 23. Fig. 6 shows the cup spring 23 in the installed state. To install cup spring 23, cup spring tongue 46 and guide tongue 48 are initially introduced axially into associated slot 43 and then twisted in the direction of the arrow until cup spring tongue 46 engages positively in engagement contour 45. In synchronism therewith, the further outer guide tongue 48 bears in a non-positive manner against the obliquely running ramp profile 49 of the shoulder 47. Fig. 4 shows a perspective view of the one-piece secondary part 3 in the detail drawing, which comprises two approximately semicircular recesses 19 for the sections 18 of the holding element 16. The outer contour of the recess 19 radially adjacent to the central driven hub 11 defines a centering diameter D (shown in fig. 3) for the secondary part 3.

Fig. 7 to 9 show an alternative design of a tooth profile 51 which is provided for the segment 18 and comprises two axial slots 43 and three identically designed shoulders 52. Each shoulder is formed with a side recess 53 comprising a ramp profile 54 and a final catch profile 55. The path of cup spring tongue 56 for mounting cup spring 40 until reaching catch contour 55 is shown in dashed lines in fig. 8. Fig. 9 shows the disc spring tongues 56 in the final position.
