Abstract

A valve device, a damper with a valve device, and a method for operating the same are described. The valve device is formed with a flow channel through which a magnetorheological medium flows. A magnetic circuit device provides a magnetic field in the flow channel. The magnetic circuit device includes a hard magnetic magnet component and at least one electrical coil that can be controlled by a control device. The magnetic circuit device has two segments, which differ in the dynamic magnetic properties thereof. Thus, by way of a magnetic pulse that can be output by the electrical coil, a specific inhomogeneity of the magnetic field in the flow channel can be set and can be stored in the hard magnetic magnet component.
