Abstract
A directly actuated vibration absorber valve for controllable vibration absorbers. The valve includes a valve body that is actuatable by an electromechanical transducer. In the range of low volumetric flow rates an output signal is conveyed to an electric circuit which actuates the electromechanical transducer in such a way that a greater restricting function is imposed than that imposed during a second range of volumetric flow rates.
