Abstract: The disclosure relates to a valve, comprising a main plunger for controlling a main volume flow and comprising a pilot-control plunger for controlling a pilot-control volume flow. The main and pilot-control plungers are longitudinally moveably guided in a valve housing and the pilot-control plunger can be actuated by a magnetic device. The position of the main plunger can be adjusted by the pilot-control plunger in that a fluid pressure at the main plunger is communicated, via a fluid connection, into the pilot control chamber containing the pilot-control piston, which keeps the main plunger in its closed position blocking the main volume flow when the magnetic device is not actuated. When the magnetic device is actuated, the pilot-control plunger moves into a position in which the fluid pressure falls in the pilot-control chamber until the main plunger moves into an open position controlling the main volume flow.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a volume flow supply, in particular for closed center LS systems, comprising a pressure supply device and a pressure balance as components of a supply system for supplying fluid of a load which can be hydraulically connected to the supply system. The pressure supply device provides a volume flow when required in order to supply the hydraulic load in that the pressure balance is made of a circulation pressure balance which discharges a possible surplus volume flow out of the supply flow. The volume flow supply also comprises a controller which reduces the surplus volume flow to a minimum by actuating the pressure supply device.

Abstract: A control piston (12) is longitudinally displaceable in a housing (10) having two connection points (P, A) for fluid, and cooperates with a metering edge (34) of the housing (10) at a connection point (P). Point (P), in control positions of the control piston (12), supplies the connection point (A) with fluid via a fluid connection. The piston, as a result of occurring flow forces, tends to be drawn in the direction of a closing position that blocks one of these fluid connections. To compensate the flow force, the control piston (12) has, in the region of the control edge (34) of the housing (10), a shape modification (48) of its cylindrical exterior basic form (50), such that a flow contact surface (52) for fluid is created. The contact surface transfers a compensating force that acts against the flow force to the control piston (12) and that seeks to pull the control piston (12) into an opening position opposed to the closing position.
