Abstract

A compliantly mounted damper (16,18) for rotating equipment of the type including a rotor shaft (2) and a quill shaft (6) coupling the rotor shaft (2) to a driver shaft (8) is disclosed. The damper includes a plate (14) rigidly mounted to the quill shaft (6) and a plate (16) compliantly mounted to the rotor shaft (2) so that the rotor shaft plate (16) follows the angular displacement of the quill shaft plate (14) due to shaft misalignment which may occur, while torsional damping is achieved.
