An improved hydraulic arrangement is provided for a spring support system. The arrangement comprises a hydraulic cylinder, a hydraulic reservoir, a hydraulic fluid feeder, a hydraulic accumulator, a first control valve between the hydraulic cylinder and the accumulator, a second control valve between the hydraulic cylinder and the hydraulic reservoir as well as an automatic shut-off valve and a controller with a lifting position, a lowering position and a neutral position for the hydraulic cylinder. In order to prevent different pressure loads between the accumulator and the hydraulic cylinder, it is suggested to equalize the pressure between the accumulator and the hydraulic cylinder, without impairing the spring support system or the automatic shut-off valve. Accordingly, the accumulator is suitably connected to a non-return valve and to a flow restrictor or orifice.

The embodiments of the invention in which an exclusive property or privilege is claimed are defined as follows: 1. An improved hydraulic arrangement for a spring support system, the hydraulic arrangement having a hydraulic cylinder with first and second chambers, a hydraulic reservoir, a hydraulic fluid feeder conveying hydraulic fluid, a hydraulic accumulator, a first hydraulic line disposed between the hydraulic accumulator and the first chamber, a first control valve disposed in the first hydraulic line, a second hydraulic line disposed between the second chamber and the hydraulic reservoir, a second control valve disposed in the second hydraulic line, a first supply line for the first chamber, a second supply line for the second chamber, an automatic shut-off valve disposed in the first supply line, and a controller with at least three positions, comprising a lifting position, a lowering position and a neutral position for the hydraulic cylinder, wherein the improvement comprises: a third hydraulic line provided with a non-return valve that opens in the direction of the accumulator and is disposed between the accumulator and the controller; and, a fourth hydraulic line provided with a flow-reducing means disposed between the non-return valve and the first chamber, with the third hydraulic line being connected to the first supply line between the automatic shut-off valve and the controller and the fourth hydraulic line being connected to the third hydraulic line between the non-return valve and the accumulator. 2. The improved hydraulic arrangement according to claim 1, wherein the flow-reducing means is configured as one of an orifice or a flow restrictor. 3. The improved hydraulic arrangement according to claim 1 wherein the first control valve has a closed position and an open position. 4. The improved hydraulic arrangement according to claim 3, wherein in the closed position the first control valve closes in the direction of the accumulator. 5. The improved hydraulic arrangement according to claim 1, wherein the second control valve has a closed position and an open position. 6. The improved hydraulic arrangement according to claim 5, wherein in the closed position the second control valve closes in the direction of the hydraulic reservoir. 7. The improved hydraulic arrangement according to claim 1, wherein the non-return valve and the flow-reducing means are disposed on the hydraulic cylinder. 8. The improved hydraulic arrangement according to claim 1, wherein said second control valve is an electrically responsive valve which is shiftable from a normally closed position to an open position in response to receiving an electrical input signal; and an electrical control arrangement coupled to said second control valve and including a position sensor associated with said controller with at least three positions for sensing the positions of said controller and generating a corresponding position signal and sending an input signal to said second control valve only when said controller is in said neutral position, whereby said second control valve is de-energized and moves into said closed position when the controller assumes the lowering position. 9. The improved hydraulic arrangement according to claim 1, wherein the controller is a slide valve, which has at least two inputs and two outputs for each position. 10. The improved hydraulic arrangement according to claim 1, wherein the automatic shut-off valve comprises a non-return valve that closes in the direction of the controller and a pressure control valve, the pressure control valve being actuatable by a pressure present in the first and second supply lines.
