Abstract: A device for damping vibrations acting on a tracked vehicle is provided, which has a front and rear track roller. Torsion springs are mounted along a vehicle pan. Alternatively, the torsion springs can be subdivided into smaller torsion springs. For the immediate track rollers, a further device is provided in which the long torsion springs which hitherto absorbed the torsion are divided into a plurality of smaller torsion springs and mounted not transversely with respect to the vehicle pan, but in a direction of travel with respect thereto. The torsion springs are functionally connected to one another via drive and/or transmission elements, and are accommodated outside an interior space. In this way, no further installation space is required transversely with respect to and below the vehicle pan, at most in the side region or within a small recess in the pan, a so-called pan niche.

Abstract: A device for damping vibrations acting upon a track vehicle is provided. Long torsion bar springs which so far have been used to absorb torsion are subdivided into a plurality of small torsion bar springs. The torsion bar springs are operationally interconnected via drive or transmission elements and accommodated outside the interior, thereby removing the need for installation space for the damping device at a right angle to and below the vehicle chassis, and reducing it to the lateral zone or inside a minor recess in the chassis, a so-called chassis recess.
