Abstract
This paper deals with the application of electrorheological fluid (ERF) in shock absorbers. Such shock absorbers (ERF shock absorbers) whose damping force is controlled Continuously and promptly through electric singnals, can be used in many kinds of mechanical equipment for vibration control. Typical structures of ERF shock absorbers are described and requirements for the ERF employed in shock absorbers are discussed. A new kind of shock absorber and its control system are presented and test results of the ERF shock absorber are given.
