Abstract:
A lock-up device includes a clutch part, an input plate, an outer peripheral side damper part, an output plate, an inner peripheral side damper part, and an intermediate member. The outer peripheral side damper part includes at least two outer peripheral side springs. The outer peripheral side springs are disposed in a circumferential alignment, act in series, and take circular-arc shapes when in a free state. The inner peripheral side damper part includes at least two inner peripheral side springs. The inner peripheral side springs are disposed in a circumferential alignment on an inner peripheral side of the outer peripheral side damper part, and act in series. The intermediate member is rotatable relatively to the input plate and the output plate, and makes the outer peripheral side damper part and the inner peripheral side damper part act in series.
