Abstract: A rotary fluid valve has a pivotable disk (36) with through slots (38, 39), the disk blocking outer ends of ports (31, 32) in a neutral disk position. When the disk pivots in first or second directions from the neutral position, one of its slots moves into line with one of the ports. This allows pressured air to flow from the now-uncovered port and through the disk slot, and through an upper chamber (46) lying against the upper face of the disk, to allow air to flow between an external fluid coupling (17 or 18) that is coupled to the port, to another external coupling (19, 20) that is coupled to the upper chamber, as to inflate or deflate a vehicle air bag.

Abstract: A supported structure is leveled against positional variations relative to a supporting structure with a fluid suspension system between the supported structure and the supporting structure. The fluid suspension system has a first fluid leveling valve for adjustment and operation of the supported structure to and at a first level relative to the supporting structure, and is provided with a second fluid leveling valve for adjustment and operation of the supported structure to and at an alternative second level relative to the supporting structure. The supported structure is adjusted with the first fluid leveling valve to the first level relative to the supporting structure. The first level is sensed. The activated first fluid leveling valve is operated in response to the sensed first level to maintain the first level against positional variations. The supported structure is alternatively adjusted with the second fluid leveling valve to the second level relative to the supporting structure.
