  • Patent number: 9566886
    Abstract: The invention relates to a vehicle seat, comprising a vertically adjustable seat connection arranged between and mechanically interconnecting an upper seat part and a lower seat part. At least one oscillation limiting device is provided to limit a vertical oscillation movement of the upper seat part in a direction away from the lower seat part, is arranged between the lower seat part and the upper seat part, and is rigidly connected to the upper seat part. The oscillation limiting device comprises at least one reel-off element with a presettable reel-off length that determines a maximum deflection height in the vertical direction. The oscillation limiting device limits movement of the upper seat part in the vertical direction, in the direction away from the lower seat part, after reel-off of the presettable reel-off length, without damping.

  • Patent number: 8820724
    Abstract: Spring-mounted vibration system to reduce vibration with a first spring-mounted part and a second spring-mounted part, wherein the first spring-mounted part and the second spring-mounted part can oscillate relative to each in at least one vibration direction and at least one of the spring-mounted parts can be exposed to a return force on a vibration movement. A control unit is arranged with at least one travel linkage which is connected with at least one of the spring-mounted parts and in which is arranged displaceably at least one guide element connected with a spring element generating the return force and/or the other spring-mounted part.
