Abstract: A damping valve includes a valve body has at least one through-flow channel for each flow direction of a damping medium through the valve body. Each through-flow channel connects an inlet to an outlet. a valve disk covers the through-flow channels at the outlet opening the valve disk has a first volume flow of the damping medium through the valve body, at least one pre-orifice in the valve disk and at least one pre-orifice throttle arrangement is arranged at least indirectly adjoining the valve disk and adapted to at least partially cover or open the pre-orifice depending on the flow direction of a damping medium. The pre-orifice throttle arrangement includes multiple structural component parts arranged coaxial to one another, at least two of the structural component parts are inseparably connected to one another.

Abstract: A vibration damper with a damping force adjusting device and a height adjusting device for changing the axial position of a piston of the vibration damper, characterized in that the damping force adjusting device is adjusted depending on at least one operating parameter of the height adjusting device, and when there is a change in the at least one operating parameter there is also a change in at least one operating parameter of the damping force adjusting device. A method of operating a vibration damper with a controller and a motor vehicle including such vibration damper and controller is also disclosed.

Abstract: A vibration damper having a cylinder filled with pressurized medium and in which a displacer drives a generator. The vibration damper has a compensation element that compensates pressure peaks from the displacer movement relative to the generator. The compensation element is constructed as a variable-torque clutch.

Abstract: A vibration damper having a cylinder filled with pressurized medium and a displacer that drives a generator. The vibration damper has a resilience element that compensates pressure peaks from the displacer movement relative to the generator. The resilience element is constructed as a torsion damper for the generator.
