  • Publication number: 20230304598
    Abstract: A solenoid valve includes a spool housing defining a spool axis, a spool extending within the spool housing, a solenoid housing, an armature extending within the solenoid housing and defining an armature axis perpendicular to the spool axis, a spool actuator extending from the armature and in engagement with the spool, a first coil positioned along a first portion of the armature, and a second positioned along a second portion of the armature. The first coil and the second coil are controllable to reposition the armature along the armature axis such that the spool actuator variably engages with the spool to move the spool between a plurality of positions along the spool axis.

  • Patent number: 11739855
    Abstract: Systems and apparatuses include a solenoid valve including a first coil, a second coil coupled to the first coil, a banjo fitting coupled to the second coil, a spool housing coupled to the banjo fitting so that the first coil and the second coil are selectively rotatable about the spool housing, a spool received within the spool housing, and an armature received within the first coil and the second coil and including a spool actuator coupled to the spool.

  • Patent number: 10821982
    Abstract: In one aspect, a method for adjusting torque limits for a work vehicle may include controlling, with a computing device, an operation of an engine of the work vehicle such that a torque output of the engine is maintained at or below a baseline engine torque limit. The method may also include receiving, with the computing device, an input associated with a current hydraulic power requirement of a hydraulic system of the work vehicle, and adjusting, with the computing device, a torque limit for the engine from the baseline engine torque limit to an adjusted engine torque limit based on the current hydraulic power requirement of the hydraulic system. In addition, the method may include controlling, with the computing device, the operation of the engine such that the torque output of the engine is maintained at or below the adjusted engine torque limit.
