  • Multi-way directional fluid flow control valve arrangement
    Patent number: RE29481
    Abstract: In order to provide a multi-way directional fluid flow control valve arrangement which provides good control while being relatively cheap to manufacture, I use simple main valves all of which have parallel axes and all lie in a common plane, enabling me to form the main valves in a cheap manufacturing operation; the pilot valve however is more complex and has at least four connections, but because the pilot valve is smaller, this extra complexity does not make the whole valve arrangement more expensive.
