Abstract: A load sensing hydraulic control system for use in a work machine and adaptable for controlling the displacement of a variable displacement hydraulic pump. The control system includes a signal duplicating valve connected in fluid communication with both the pump controller and a fluid pressure source, and a sensor positioned and located for sensing the fluid pressure to the pump controller and outputting a signal to the controller indicative thereof. In response to signals received from the at least one sensor, the controller outputs a representative signal to the signal duplicating valve indicative of the highest pressure sensed by the at least one sensor, the signal duplicating valve being thereafter operable to allow fluid flow to pass therethrough to the pump controller.

Abstract: Regeneration valves are useful in directing fluid expelled from a contracting chamber of a hydraulic actuator to its expanding chamber to increase the actuation speed of the actuator. The present remotely controlled regeneration circuit improves the controllability of the regeneration valve by positioning the regeneration valve between the pump and the control valve so that the fluid expelled from the contracting chamber and combined with the pump flow to the expanding chamber passes through and is controlled by the control valve. The regeneration valve is moved to its regeneration position by pressurized fluid from a solenoid valve which can be selectively energized by the operator manually closing a switch mounted to a control lever.

Abstract: Apparatus for mounting a component on a printed wiring circuit board. The mounting assembly comprises a quadrilateral configured member formed of a flexible polymer insulating material to have a central chamber for holding the component. Side walls surrounding the chamber have channels formed therein for receiving edges of the component with the lower surface of the channels having directional conducting particles positioned therein at locations corresponding to the component terminals. Side walls of the component mounting apparatus have a reduced area forming a flexible hinge enabling a force to be applied to the component to maintain each component terminal in compressed engagement with corresponding conducting particles and establish an electrical conducting path between the component terminal and circuit board.
