Abstract: The invention relates a torsional vibration damper, comprising the following features: a primary part with two lateral discs (1, 2) which are connected to each other for conjoint rotation; a secondary part with a central disc (3) which is arranged between the lateral discs; a primary part and secondary part are rotationally connected to each other via springs (5); damping chambers which are filled with a damping medium and each have at least one throttle opening; guide elements (7.1) are provided for supporting and guiding the springs. The invention is characterized by the following features: each spring is assigned two guide elements which are both arranged at mutual axial distance and form the supporting surfaces against a movement of the spring in the radial and in the axial direction.
