Abstract: A valve arrangement including a distributor housing (2) with a distributor duct (4), an inlet duct (46) which leads into the distributor duct (4), at least two outlet ducts (11, 12, 13) which lead out of the distributor duct (4), and a value associated with eac;h outlet duct. The values are integrated into the distributor housing (2) and have regulating flaps (31, 32, 33) whose axes of rotation (37, 38, 39) are arranged such that the flaps are situated partially in the distributor duct (4) and partially in the associated outlet duct (11, 12, 13). This construction reduces the overall size of the valve arrangement and eliminates dead spaces in which medium flowing through the valve arrangement could become trapped.

Abstract: A servo valve comprising a drive for moving a valve spindle (6) coupled through a lever and a link body with the drive. The lever (34) is pivotably mounted in a lever housing (30) which is connected at one end to the valve housing (2) and at its other end to a housing (54) of the drive, and a position controller (114) is disposed on the lever housing (30). The servo valve has a compact and enclosed design and can be economically manufactured and assembled.

Abstract: An apparatus with an initiator for detecting the rotational position of a shaft (10) comprising a housing (2) containing an electric sensor element (14) and a movable revolving body (22) fastened on the shaft (10). The apparatus achieves a simple and functionally reliable alignment of the revolving body (22) with respect to the sensor element (14) in order to facilitate assembly or adjustment at low cost. The revolving body (22) is rotationally fixed to the shaft (10) by means of a clamping connection and is adjustable in the circumferential and/or axial direction upon contact with a stop body in the housing once the clamping force of the clamping connection has been overcome.
