Abstract
A shock absorber for damping the movement of the body of an automobile. The shock absorber includes a pressure cylinder forming a working chamber with a piston disposed therein. The piston has a plurality of flow passages extending therethrough. A first valve disk is located on one surface of the piston, while the second valve disk is located on the second surface of the piston. Finally, an electromechanical transducer is disposed adjacent to the first valve disk so as to permit control of flow of damping fluid through the piston.
