Abstract
A suspension arrangement for a vehicle, in particular a commercial vehicle, with a base and a body, includes at least one spring, at least one damper and at least one inerter. The at least one first spring, the at least one damper and the at least one inerter are each connected on the one hand to the body and on the other hand to the base. The at least one damper and the at least one inerter are each connected on the one hand to the body and on the other hand to the base. The at least one inerter has an adjustment device. A method for controlling the suspension arrangement is provided.

A suspension arrangement for a vehicle having a base and a body, the suspension arrangement comprising:
- at least one spring;
- at least one damper;
- and
- at least one inerter, wherein
- the at least one spring, the at least one damper and the at least one inerter are each connected, on the one hand, to the body and, on the other hand, to the base, and
- the at least one inerter comprises an adjustment device.
A method for controlling a suspension arrangement for a vehicle having a base and a body, wherein the suspension arrangement includes at least one spring, at least one damper and at least one inerter, and wherein the at least one spring, the at least one damper and the at least one inerter are each connected on the one hand to the body and on the other hand to the base, the method comprising the steps of:
- VS1) providing the suspension arrangement with the at least one spring, the at least one damper and the at least one inerter, wherein the at least one inerter has an adjustment device, and wherein the inerter is in a first operating state with a first inertia which is adapted to an empty loading state of an associated vehicle;
- VS2) adjusting the inerter by way of the adjustment device into a second operating state with a second inertia adapted to a partial load of the associated vehicle;
- and
- VS3) adjusting the inerter by way of the adjustment device into a third operating state with a third inertia adapted to a fully loaded state of the associated vehicle.
