Abstract
An inerter device for a wheel suspension of a vehicle, having an inerter mass and a mechanical inerter drive which is operatively connected to the inerter mass via a coupling device. The coupling device has a control disk connected to the inerter mass and a contour disk connected to the inerter drive. The control disk and contour disk are frictionally in contact with each other via coupling surfaces. The inerter mass is reversibly movable relative to the inerter drive from an operating position into a securing position. The control disk has a contact element which, during the movement of the inerter mass into the securing position, interacts with a mating contact element of the contour disk and therefore reversibly moves the control disk from a coupling position relative to the contour disk into a release position in which the coupling surfaces are separated.
