ABSTRACT:
A device for cushioned support of a driver's cab (1) on the chassis (2) of a tractor. The device includes a transversal swinging arm (10) mounted on the chassis in the rear area of the cab (1), the transversal arm pivots around a lateral axis and, at its front end, acts through a ball joint (23) on the cab (1) at or near its center of gravity (S). The device also includes mounting points (3, 4 and 5) in the form of damping spring elements (6,7). With such a device, the cab is secured against rotation about the vertical axis and is also buffered against excessive pitching motion.
