A damping arrangement for an axle of an active chassis of a motor vehicle. A damping system interacts with each wheel of the axle, each damping system has the following: a damper having a double-acting hydraulic cylinder and a piston, a hydraulic pump and an electric motor for driving the hydraulic pump, a hydraulic unit having a hydraulic reservoir and valves. The hydraulic pump and the hydraulic unit of the respective damping system interact with the respective hydraulic cylinder in such a manner that, depending on the conveyance direction of the hydraulic pump, a movement of the piston can be provided in a first or in a second actuation direction. The electric motors of both damping systems are arranged with axially aligned rotational axes in a casing and can be regulated by a common control device which has electronic construction groups which are arranged on at least one circuit board.

Damping arrangement for an axle of a motor vehicle and motor vehicle

Damping arrangement for an axle of an active chassis of a motor vehicle. A damping system interacts with each wheel of the axle. Each of the damping systems includes the following assemblies: a damper including a double-acting hydraulic cylinder and a piston, a hydraulic pump and an electric motor for driving same, and a hydraulic unit which includes a hydraulic reservoir and valves. The hydraulic pump and the hydraulic unit of the respective damping system interact with hydraulic chambers of the hydraulic cylinder in such a manner that a movement of the piston in a first or in a second operating direction can be provided depending on the delivery direction of the hydraulic pump. The electric motors of both damping systems are connected to a common control device and can be actuated thereby, wherein the common control device has electronic assemblies which are distributed on different printed circuit boards.
