Abstract

Wheel suspension for a vehicle, comprising a transverse spring, and, on the respective right and left side of the vehicle, a mounted upper deflection limiting device that is provided with an engaging device for engaging the spring. The spring is suspended in spring seats, each comprising a lever. The invention lever has a central suspension section in which the lever is pivotable relative to the vehicle around a suspension axis arranged in a substantially longitudinal direction of the vehicle; an inner end section placed below and, in relation to the longitudinal plane, inside the central suspension section, wherein the inner end section is provided with a supporting element that is in contact with the spring at the inner attachment point, which supporting element is slidable along the spring in the transverse direction of the vehicle as a function of the rotation of the lever around the suspension axis; and an outer end section placed outside the central suspension section, whereby the spring contacts the engaging device of the deflection limiting device, and an actuating device connected to the engaging device is arranged to mechanically act on the outer end section in such a way that the lever is pivoted around the suspension axis, whereby the supporting element, as well as the said inner attachment point, are displaced downwards and outwards towards the outer attachment point of the spring.
