Patent ID: 8800977

Claim:
A suspension device for vehicle seats and/or vehicle cabins for applying a spring force to a vibratory motion of a first component relative to a second component, in a longitudinal or transverse direction of a vehicle, wherein at least one elongate spring member extending in the longitudinal or transverse direction of the vehicle is connected at a first end and at a second end to the first component and in a central region thereof to the second component, wherein the elongate spring member is made from a flexible elastomer material that is formed to be rod-shaped, and wherein at least two metal strip members that at least partially extend parallel to each other are arranged in a longitudinal direction of the spring member within the elastomer material and/or adjacent thereto, wherein the elongate spring member is rotatable about a longitudinal axis thereof, wherein a first rotary position of the elongate spring member has a first deformation characteristic, wherein a second rotary position of the elongate spring member has a second deformation characteristic.
