ABSTRACT:
A damper device for a suspension device for a vehicle in which the damping fluid is an electro-viscosity fluid and an electric control unit is provided for controlling the electric field in the electro-viscosity fluid, to thereby control the damping factor of the damper device. A sensor is used for detecting vibration at the wheels, such as an acceleration rate of the suspension device, and the detected vibration is used for controlling the strength of the electric field, to thereby control the damping characteristic of the damper.
