Abstract
An electric damper for a vehicle for damping a relative motion between two components includes an electrical generator, which can be driven by the relative motion, for generating an induced voltage. Said electrical generator has a stator, a rotor, and associated induction windings and field magnets. According to the invention, the rotor is designed as a two-part rotor, comprising an inner, stationary iron core and a radially outer hollow wheel, which carries the induction windings or the field magnets.
