Abstract
A soil compacting device includes an upper mass and a lower mass which is coupled to the upper mass by a spring. The lower mass is movable relative to the upper mass and comprises a ground contact element for soil compaction. A drive for generating a working movement of the ground contact element is provided on the upper mass, the drive has a tamping device and an electric motor for driving the tamping device. The tamping device has a crank wheel that can be driven in rotating manner by the electric motor, a connection rod coupled to the crank wheel, and a tamping piston which can be moved in reciprocating fashion and is coupled to the connection rod and which interacts with the spring. The electric motor has a stator and a rotor. The rotor is rigidly or elastically coupled to the crank wheel.
