  • Patent number: 5255963
    Abstract: A known hydraulic vehicle brake system has an anti-skid valve assembly. By this assembly, the at least one wheel brake can be temporarily disconnected from the master brake cylinder and connected to one inlet of a return pump, which furnishes the quantities of pressure fluid flowing out of the wheel brakes both to a damper chamber and, via a damper throttle, to the master brake cylinder and/or the at least one wheel brake. The disadvantage is that all of the pressure fluid pumped by the return pump can sometimes reach the master brake cylinder, disagreeably moving the brake pedal in the direction of its outset position. This can annoy a driver and should be avoided. The improved vehicle brake system has a valve, which in anti-skid operation can be blocked, located between the damper throttle and the master brake cylinder and also has a bypass throttle bypassing the valve. As a result, during anti-skid operation, the brake pedal is not displaced to such an annoying extent.

  • Patent number: 5112117
    Abstract: A vehicle brake system comprising a hydraulically controllable 2/2-way valve, which has a first control inlet and a second control inlet. The first control inlet receives its control pressure from a first brake pressure source, while the second control inlet contrarily receives its control pressure from a second brake pressure source, such as a so-called return pump apparatus. The vehicle brake system can be used in passenger cars, vans, small buses, and small trucks as well as motor cycles.

  • Patent number: 4304172
    Abstract: A servo mechanism for adjusting the position of a biased control member of a sliding ring for controlling pressure fluid in a main conduit of a hydraulic machine, comprises a manually adjustable sleeve, a setting piston arranged for reciprocating movement in the sleeve and being hydraulically connected thereto to resume a position preset by the sleeve, a follower piston coupled between the setting piston and the biased control member of the recoiling device, a control pressure space provided above the follower piston, a unidirectional first control conduit delivering a regulating stream of pressure fluid from the main conduit to actuate the setting piston, a second control conduit between the main conduit and the pressure space, and a flow controlling valve controlled by pressure in the first control conduit for equalizing pressure between the pressure space and the main conduit thus allowing override of the setting piston during the pressure setting operation.

  • Patent number: 4185540
    Abstract: A positive-displacement machine includes a hollow housing provided with two diametrically opposed bores each having a first end communicating with an interior of the housing and a second end closed by a cover. A rotor member is adjustably displaceable in the interior of the housing due to displacement of two pistons positioned in the bores. The pistons are connected to a high pressure chamber, to thereby create in the pistons pressure sufficient to move the latter, to thereby move the rotor member. The housing is provided with control devices to change the pressure in the bores and create a pressure differential in the bores sufficient to move the rotor member into a predetermined position.

  • Patent number: 4118931
    Abstract: A control arrangement for a hydrostatic drive comprises a gear pump driven by an internal combustion engine and supplying fluid to a fluid motor. The control arrangement is constructed in such a manner that even at a high number of revolutions per time unit of the internal combustion engine, the fluid motor may be operated at a low number of revolutions.
