Suspension device
The invention relates to a suspension device, in particular for a vehicle seat, comprising an upper suspension part and a lower suspension part, which can be connected to one another by a first swivelling connector and a second swivelling connector, wherein a first spring unit can be connected in a first end region on the one hand by means of an adjusting device to the first swivelling connector and can be connected in a second end region on the other hand to the lower suspension part, wherein by means of the adjusting device the position of the first spring unit can be adjusted in order to adjust the spring force and the spring rate of the suspension device.
1. A suspension device, for a vehicle seat, comprising:
an upper suspension part and a lower suspension part, wherein the upper suspension part and the lower suspension part can be connected to one another by a first swivelling connector and a second swivelling connector, wherein a first spring unit can be connected in a first end region by an adjusting device to the first swivelling connector and can be connected in a second end region to the lower suspension part, wherein by means of the adjusting device, a position of the first spring unit can be adjusted, in order to adjust a spring force and a spring rate of the suspension device, wherein the adjusting device comprises an adjusting element, wherein a first lever element is arranged pivotably on the adjusting element by means of a second axis of rotation, wherein a second lever element is arranged pivotably on the first lever element by means of a third axis of rotation and the second lever element is connected pivotably to the first swivelling connector by means of a fourth axis of rotation, wherein the adjusting device comprises a rotary lever which is stationary relative to the first swiveling connector, which rotary lever is rotatably mounted about a first axis of rotation, which is stationary relative to the first swiveling connector, and wherein the adjusting element can be displaced along a displacement axis.
2. The suspension device according to claim 1 , wherein a position of the first end region of the first spring unit can be adjusted by means of the adjusting device, and wherein a position of the second end region is constant.
3. The suspension device according to claim 1 , wherein the suspension device comprises at least one damper, wherein a first end region of the damper can be connected to the adjusting device.
4. The suspension device according to claim 1 , wherein the second swivelling connector is designed to be longer than the first swivelling connector.
5. The suspension device according to claim 1 , wherein the displacement axis corresponds to the first axis of rotation.
6. The suspension device according to claim 1 , wherein the first spring unit is formed by a spring, wherein preferably the spring is a tension spring.
7. The suspension device according to claim 1 , wherein the first spring unit is at least connected operatively to the second lever element.
