An arrangement for suspension of an operator cab on a machine frame in order to permit controlled motion of the cab relative to the frame is provided. The arrangement includes at least one first suspension member disposed between an underside of the cab and the frame for supporting the cab on the frame. The arrangement further includes at least one second suspension member disposed between a rear side of the cab and a rigid support structure and wherein the second suspension member is arranged at an elevated position relative to the underside of the cab. The second suspension member is adapted to provide an increased rigidity against cab movements both in the longitudinal and lateral direction of the machine during operation of the work machine.

Arrangement for suspension of an operator cab on a work machine frame

Method and device for suspending a cab () on a vehicle frame () using vertical orientation for both a first element () that absorbs shocks/vibrations from the vehicle frame () to the cab () and a second element () that acts as a load support between cab () and the vehicle frame ()in the event of, for example, accident situations. The first and second elements () are arranged on the device, which connects the cab () to the vehicle frame () by a firm connection between the first element () and the cab (), or alternatively the vehicle frame ().
