Abstract
The invention relates to a suspension system (), preferably a driver seat (), comprising a first suspension part (), preferably a frame () of the driver seat (); a second suspension part (), preferably a seat surface () of the driver seat (), wherein the two suspension parts () are movable relative to each other in at least one first spatial direction (Z), preferably in the vertical direction (Z); a kinematic system (), preferably a scissor kinematic system () which is designed to connect the two suspension parts () in a movable manner relative to each other at least in the first spatial direction (Z); a suspension device () which is designed to support the static load of the second suspension part (); and an actuator () which is designed to introduce a force bidirectionally between the two suspension parts () and thereby actively damp the relative movement between the two suspension parts (). The suspension system () is characterized in that the actuator () has a bearing (), preferably a ball bearing (), which is arranged within the power flow between the two suspension parts () such that an axial load can be kept away from the driven axle of the actuator () at least partly, preferably completely.
