Abstract

The invention relates to a vehicle vibration device of a vehicle seat or of a vehicle cab, comprising a lower part and an upper part which can be deflected relative to this lower part, in which device the upper part and the lower part are interconnected in a spring-loaded manner by means of at least one suspension apparatus and in which the suspension apparatus comprises a deformable fluid-spring part having a flexible pressure chamber element and a deformation apparatus having deformation elements, the deformable fluid element being deformed at least in part by the deformation elements when the upper part is deflected relative to the lower part, and wherein, according to the invention, an additional anti-abrasion element is arranged between the flexible pressure chamber element and the deformation elements.

Claims (10)

1. A vehicle vibration device of a vehicle seat or of a vehicle cab, comprising:

a lower part; and

an upper part which can be deflected relative to this lower part, in which device the upper part and the lower part are interconnected in a spring-loaded manner by means of at least one suspension apparatus and in which the suspension apparatus comprises a deformable fluid spring part having a flexible pressure chamber element and a deformation apparatus having deformation elements, the deformable fluid element being deformed by the deformation elements at least in part when the upper part is deflected relative to the lower part, wherein an additional anti-abrasion element is arranged between the flexible pressure chamber element and the deformation elements.

2. The vehicle vibration device according to claim 1 , wherein the anti-abrasion element is produced from a cellular polyurethane, in particular from Cellasto® or Sylomer®.

3. The vehicle vibration device according to claim 1 , wherein the anti-abrasion element has a tubular protective sleeve element in which at least part of the deformable fluid spring part is arranged.

4. The vehicle vibration device according to claim 1 , wherein the anti-abrasion element is loosely pulled over the flexible pressure chamber element as far as over end enclosures thereof.

5. The vehicle vibration device according to claim 1 , wherein the anti-abrasion element consists of a flock coating.

6. The vehicle vibration device according to claim 1 , wherein the anti-abrasion element comprises means for reducing friction with respect to the deformation elements.

7. The vehicle vibration device according to claim 1 , wherein the anti-abrasion element comprises means for storing a lubricant.

8. The vehicle vibration device according to claim 1 , wherein the flexible pressure chamber element is produced, so as to be expandable, from a rubber material reinforced with a polyamide fabric.
