Abstract

In a system for controlling a chassis, in particular for controlling spring cylinders that can simultaneously perform the function of a semiactive shock absorber and are disposed between wheel suspensions and the vehicle body, at least one chamber of the spring cylinder is intended to communicate via a line or branch line with a pumping device, reservoir or the like for a pressure fluid, and at least one control member is connected between the pump device, reservoir or the like and the chamber. A control valve, which responds to a change in pressure in a shunt between the control valve and a line, is disposed in the control member.
