  • Method of making vibration damper
    Patent number: 4073047
    Abstract: An improved vibration damper for use with oscillating bodies and the method of making said damper. The damper includes an inner core member or hub, an outer inertia mass member or inertia ring surrounding and spaced from the hub, and compressible resilient damping means such as a layer of compressible elastomeric material under a limited compression and a retaining means such as a metallic band disposed between the core member and the inertia member. The damping means is chemically adhered to both the retaining means and the core member or the inertia member and the retaining means is fixed in an interference fit to either the outer peripheral surface of the core member or the inner peripheral surface of the inertia member. The damper is particularly useful for mounting on the end of a crankshaft of an internal combustion engine.
