Abstract

A decoupling carrier for an electro-hydraulic unit for a chassis of a motor vehicle. The decoupling carrier includes (i) at least one damper receptacle, which can be connected to an electro-hydraulic unit in a force-transmitting manner; (ii) a damper body for each damper receptacle; and (iii) a fastening receptacle for the power-transmitting connection to a chassis carrier of a motor vehicle for each damper body. The fastening receptacle includes a receptacle opening for a line carrier.

Claims (22)

1. A decoupling carrier for an electro-hydraulic unit of a motor vehicle chassis, said decoupling carrier comprising:

at least one damper receptacle that is configured to be connected to the electro-hydraulic unit in a force-transmitting manner;

a damper body for the at least one damper receptacle; and

a fastening receptacle for a power-transmitting connection to a chassis carrier of a motor vehicle for the damper body,

wherein the fastening receptacle comprises a receptacle opening for a line carrier.

2. The decoupling carrier according to claim 1 , wherein:

the receptacle opening comprises at least one undercut, and

the line carrier comprises a clip for a friction-fit and form-fit connection to the receptacle opening by way of the at least one undercut,

wherein the undercut is formed by a threaded cut and the clip has a complementary fir tree structure.

3. The decoupling carrier according to claim 1 , wherein the fastening receptacle is formed from a bearing bushing of the damper body.

4. The decoupling carrier according to claim 1 , wherein the fastening receptacle is configured to be fastened to a chassis support of a motor vehicle by a screw or by a threaded bolt.

5. The decoupling carrier according to claim 4 , wherein the receptacle opening for the line carrier is a through-hole for a head of the screw or the bolt.

6. The decoupling carrier according to claim 1 , wherein the decoupling carrier has a goggle-like shape and comprises two damper receptacles.

7. The decoupling carrier according to claim 1 , wherein the decoupling carrier comprises a contact surface that is in direct contact with a corresponding counterface of the electro-hydraulic unit.

8. An electro-hydraulic unit of a motor vehicle chassis comprising the decoupling carrier according to claim 1 .

9. A motor vehicle comprising:

at least one drive machine for propelling the motor vehicle;

a chassis having a chassis support and at least one propulsion wheel suspended on a wheel suspension;

the electro-hydraulic unit according to claim 8 ;

a transport cabin carried by the chassis carrier; and

a transmission line by way of which the at least one drive machine is connected to the at least one propulsion wheel in a torque-transmitting manner,

wherein the electro-hydraulic unit is configured to dynamically modulate damper characteristics of the wheel suspension.
