  • Patent number: 5645097
    Abstract: A solenoid valve control circuit for controlling an actuation current of a solenoid valve when the valve is to be adjusted from its flow-permitting position into its closed position so that the actuation current is initially adjusted to a value beyond the current value at which the valve begins to drop out. However, the actuation current is subsequently adjusted back to the range which lies between the current value at which the valve goes into the closed position and the current value at which the valve goes into its flow-permitting position.

  • Patent number: 4796739
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a clutch actuation device wherein the functional connection between actuation of the clutch and the excursion of the clutch pedal is made via an interposed electronic control unit. A first depression sensor is located on the clutch pedal for the purpose of determining the set value and a further sensor for determining the actual value is located on a lever of the clutch. The lever is connected to an actuation cylinder which is adjustable by means of a control valve in response to the output signals from the electronic control unit. In addition to the set value which is determined via the sensor, the electronic control unit is supplied with an additional signal from a regulating unit; the additional signal being dependent on the presence of a regulating function of a locking protection control system (LPCS). Accordingly, the above-described device is designed to allow automatic actuation of the clutch in an LP control system.
