Abstract: A hydrostatic machine includes a housing and a drive shaft. The housing has an inner housing part, configured to receive a force flow, an outer housing part, configured to seal and damp, and a housing floor. The drive shaft is configured, on an input side, to pass coaxially through the housing floor and is configured, on an output side, to pass coaxially through a swash plate.

The housing has at least two attachment points for bracing the vehicle body, wherein the attachment points are spaced from one another across a bearing distance, and the housing is mounted on the vehicle body in a rigid assembly via said attachment points.

Abstract: A method for operating an actuator of a torsion bar system of a wheel suspension of a motor vehicle is disclosed. The actuator is mounted on a carrier structure of the vehicle and actuation of the actuator changes a pre-tension acting on a wheel guide element of the wheel suspension. The method includes controlling an active aggregate support so as to reduce a vibration of a drive aggregate supported on the carrier structure via the active aggregate support adjacent to the actuator; and controlling the active aggregate support for reducing an operational vibration of the actuator.
