Patent number: 7343845Abstract: A fluid operated position regulator comprises a servo means, arranged in a regulator housing and by which a supply connection, a venting connection and a power connection can be placed in circuit in an adjustable manner. To predetermine or set its position the servo means possesses two mutually oppositely orientated fluid actuating faces of equal size, which respectively delimit a control chamber. The two control chambers are connected by way of an intermediately placed choke means with a common control pressure connection. Downstream from the two choke means each control chamber is connected with a venting connection. A control valve means can control the two venting connections and in particular simultaneously close them.Type: GrantFiled: August 1, 2006Date of Patent: March 18, 2008Assignee: Festo AG & Co.Inventors: Hannes Wirtl, Martin Maichl, Herbert Frisch

Patent number: 7322376Abstract: A piezoelectric valve has a flexural transducer accommodated in a valve housing and having a free ending cantilever operational section able to be deflected by electrical control. The operational section extends over two controlled valve openings lying on the same side and possesses two control section associated with such valve openings. One of the control section serves for control of a supply opening and is urged into its closed by actuating means provided in addition to the flexural transducer. The actuating force is powerful enough to reach the closed position, when the other control section clears the associated valve opening.Type: GrantFiled: February 7, 2005Date of Patent: January 29, 2008Assignee: Festo AG & Co.Inventor: Herbert Frisch

Patent number: 6973867Abstract: A valve controlled fluid power actuator arrangement having a fluid power valve arrangement (61) controlled by an electronic control means (63 through 65) being connected by means of at least one plastic fluid power line (11) with at least one actuator (62). In the plastic line (61) electrical line strands and/or light guides are integrated for the transmission of sensor signals. The at least one plastic line (11) is connected with the respective actuator (62) with the aid of a connection member (10) having a connection cable (29) with at least one sensor (30) in or on the actuator (62).

Patent number: 6000676Abstract: A microvalve for controlling a fluid flow comprises a valve body provided with a valve opening having a sealing edge, and a valve plate provided with fluid openings. The valve plate is adapted to be moved perpendicularly to the valve body in such a way that, at a first position, said valve plate closes the valve opening, whereas, at a second position, it is perpendicularly spaced from said valve opening in such a way that a flow cross-section defined by said valve opening and said valve plate is decisively determined by the distance between the sealing edge and the valve plate. The contour of the sealing edge of the valve opening is chosen such that the length of the sealing edge exceeds the length of a sealing edge of a square valve opening which is equal in area.Type: GrantFiled: January 28, 1998Date of Patent: December 14, 1999Assignee: Hygrama AGInventors: Roland Zengerle, Johannes Wirtl, Herbert Frisch
