Abstract

The disclosure relates to a wheel suspension of a device having an electrical drive of a wheel for supporting a manual movement impulse. The wheel suspension includes a connector piece movably or bendably arranged between a support element or support frame connected to the device and between an interior stator of an electrical drive, wherein the connector piece is held in a starting position due to the gravity of the device, without other influencing forces. The wheel suspension also includes at least one sensor that detects a deflection of the connector piece, and a control device designed such that the control device together with the electrical drive counteracts a deflection or bending of the connector piece.
