| 20090008977 | Vehicle seat with slide valve - The invention relates to a vehicle seat with a height-adjustable seat frame which comprises at least two seat frame parts which can move relative to one another and at least one fluid spring, in particular an air spring, arranged on the seat frame parts for height adjustment purposes, with at least one control device which is provided for influencing the fluid spring and which comprises at least one valve device with control valves which is attached to the first seat frame part and is designed to control fluid flows for the fluid spring, and also a control element which is provided on a second seat frame part and is designed to actuate the control valves, so that a height adjustment and/or damping oscillatory movement of the vehicle seat is ensured, wherein the valve device comprises an internally cylindrical component with at least one rod element arranged displaceably therein as a control element, wherein at least one fluid intake and discharge opening of the rod element can selectively be assigned to one of the control elements by a relative displacement of the cylindrical component and the rod element with respect to one another. | 01-08-2009 |
| 20090026816 | VEHICLE SEAT WITH BASE FRAME AND ADJUSTABLE SEAT FRAME - The invention relates to a vehicle seat comprising a base frame and comprising a seat frame which can be adjusted relative to the base frame, and comprising a gas spring which acts between this base frame and this seat frame and which is supported against the seat frame, wherein at least one pressure source and at least one valve device which is in fluid connection with this pressure source are provided, and in that furthermore a manually operated actuation element is provided for adjusting the vehicle seat, wherein this at least one valve device is arranged on or in the actuation element. | 01-29-2009 |
| 20090125194 | VEHICLE COMPRISING A SPRING-MOUNTED VEHICLE SEAT AND A SPRING-MOUNTED VEHICLE CAB, AND SUSPENSION METHOD - There is described a vehicle comprising a spring-mounted vehicle seat ( | 05-14-2009 |
| 20090134595 | APPARATUS COMPRISING A SUSPENSION SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ADJUSTING A SUSPENSION SYSTEM - An apparatus having a suspension system with a first part which is acted upon by a mass, a second part, and also an air spring arranged between this first part and this second part. At least one supplementary volume device for air is provided, the volume of which can be varied in a controlled manner, and also a first control device for adjusting the volume of the supplementary volume device. | 05-28-2009 |
| 20090272871 | VEHICLE SEAT HAVING A DEVICE FOR CONTROLLING A PNEUMATIC SUSPENSION SYSTEM - A vehicle seat having a device for controlling a pneumatic suspension system, by means of which the vehicle seat is spring-mounted relative to a vehicle body part, including at least one directional-control valve which is pneumatically connected to the device for controlling the suspension system and which is arranged in the region of a seat part of the vehicle seat, the seat part being movable relative to a base frame and which is adjustable by a movement of the seat part relative to the base frame. | 11-05-2009 |
| 20100181708 | DEVICE FOR SPRINGING A MASS, AND METHOD FOR ADJUSTING AND/OR OPERATING A FLUID SPRING - A device for springing a mass including a fluid spring and a frame, in which the fluid spring is arranged between the mass and the frame in such a way that the mass is mounted on the frame in a sprung and/or damped manner. An add-on-fluid volume device for providing an additional fluid volume for the fluid spring includes at least two fluid volume chambers that can be fluidically connected to one another and which have a common, displaceable chamber wall. | 07-22-2010 |
| 20100213345 | Device and Method for Suspension of a Vehicle Seat by Means of Additional Volumes - A device and method for suspension of a vehicle seat by means of additional volumes, in particular a utility vehicle seat, comprising at least one air spring for height adjustment of a seat part of said air spring being arranged between the seat part and a lower part, and a control device for controlling the supply and discharge of at least one additional volume to or from the air spring, wherein, at predefinable speed or acceleration values of a spring movement of the air spring, the additional volume which can be supplied or discharged can be switched on or off by means of the control device in such a way that, in end-of-travel regions of the air spring, the profile of a force/travel air spring characteristic during an extension and/or return spring movement of the air spring does not exhibit any incline in a first and in a second range. | 08-26-2010 |
| 20100237656 | DEVICE AND METHOD FOR SUSPENSION OF A VEHICLE CABIN BY MEANS OF ADDITIONAL VOLUMES - Devices and methods for suspension of a vehicle cabin using additional volumes of air for utility a vehicles. An example device includes at least one air spring for suspension of the utility vehicle cabin, the air spring being arranged between the cabin and a base frame, and a control device for controlling the supply and discharge of at least one additional volume to/from the air spring. At predefinable speed or acceleration values of a movement of the air spring, the additional volume is supplied or discharged by means of the control device in such a way that, in end-of-travel regions of the air spring, the profile of a force/travel air spring characteristic during an extension and/or return spring movement of the air spring does not exhibit any incline or exhibits only a small incline in a first and in a second range. | 09-23-2010 |
