Abstract
A soil compactor includes at least one compactor roller supported on a machine chassis to be rotatable about a roller axis of rotation. The at least one compactor roller is supported in its two axial end areas respectively via a suspension assembly on the machine chassis to be movable with respect to the same. The suspension assembly includes at least one helical spring which couples the compactor roller movably to the machine chassis.
