Spring arrangement to reduce body resonance.
The invention relates to a spring arrangement, especially in the form of a helical spring, for vibration insulation. In order to achieve objective damping of vibration in the audible body-sound range, the spring (1) is split in the direction of its longitudinal axis (8) into a plurality of individual sections (6), which are essentially constructed such that they are sprung and capable of vibration, the spring sections (6) being arranged at their end points such that they are in each case directly connected by means of coupling elements (7), which consist of spring material and are essentially rigid, in such a manner that the natural frequency of the individual spring sections (6) is greater than the natural frequency of an unsplit helical spring having the same number of spring turns. <IMAGE>
