Abstract (en)

[origin: US4365645A] A three-way or three-ported flow-regulating valve for use in a hydraulic system comprises a two-position two-ported throttle valve inserted between an inflow conduit and an outflow conduit and a pressure-relief valve connected to the inflow conduit at an upstream point thereof and at a downstream point proximate to an intake port of the throttle valve. A servovalve is connected in parallel to the throttle valve via small-diameter pressure-transmission channels extending to the intake port and to an output port of the throttle valve. Upon a jump in the pressurization of the inflow conduit, for example due to the activation of an auxiliary pump, the pressure-relief valve opens; it closes again only upon an equalization of the pressure throughout the inflow conduit. The servovalve has a biasing spring which exerts a force determining the maximum pressure drop across the throttle valve.
