Abstract
A stabilizer device for an axle of a motor vehicle. The axle has a roll stabilizer () and for each wheel at least one wheel guide control arm (). The chassis-side articulation of the wheel guide control arm () is connected to an end area of the roll stabilizer () such that a twisting actuation of the roll stabilizer () takes place due to an inward deflection motion of the wheel guide control arm (). An end of the roll stabilizer () is received in a hollow shaft () connected to the wheel guide control arm (). The hollow shaft () is mounted in a chassis-side bearing flange () and the bearing flange () can be elastically connected to the vehicle. The stabilizer device is used especially to eliminate the conflicts of design goals between the requirements of uncoupling structure-borne noise and comfort of the chassis, on the one hand, and immediate response characteristic of the stabilizer, on the other hand. Further advantages include space required for installation, weight and modularity of the stabilizer device.
