Abstract: A two stage electrohydraulic pressure control valve includes a pilot stage for providing regulated pressure at lower flows to a larger main stage that handles the higher control flows to and from a pressure applied clutch or pressure released brake. The regulated pressure from the pilot stage acts on an end of the main stage for controlling the position of the main stage. An energy storage device in the form of either an accumulator or a load piston device is connected to the end of the main stage to permit instantaneous independent movement of the main stage relative to the pilot stage. The energy storage device quickly provides for or accepts displaced fluid from the main stage much faster than the limited flow capacity and response time of the pilot stage. This permits the main stage to quickly adjust to flow changes to the clutch or brake with minimal change in pressure until the pilot stage can respond.

Abstract: An electric drip coffeemaker has a generally upright C-shaped housing with a lower horizontal leg having a heated carafe support, an upper horizontal leg having a water spreader, and a vertical leg enclosing an accessible water reservoir. An electrically heated hot water generator in the lower leg below the carafe support has an inlet connected to the reservoir through a one-way inlet valve and an outlet connected to the spreader by tubes through an interposed separate definitive steam condenser located in the vertical leg entirely below the reservoir. The condenser includes a plenum chamber larger in cross section than the connecting tubes and has a single inlet for water from the hot water generator at its bottom and a single outlet to the spreader at its top. A check valve in the chamber outlet permits only unidirectional water outflow from the condenser to create a "scrubbing" effect cleansing the passages of mineral deposits and preventing clogging. The condenser provides a large condensing volume which eliminates deliver of steam to the spreader, thus increasing brewing temperatures, decreasing brewing time and improving quality of the brewed coffee. The lack of steam in the spreader region eliminates condensation on the outer surfaces of the coffeemaker and reduces condensation leaks.

Abstract: A two-stage electrohydraulic pressure control valve modulatably controls engagement of a spring applied, pressure released brake when electrical power directed thereto is suddenly lost. The control valve includes a shutdown valve mechanism between a pilot stage and a main stage to controllably reduce the fluid pressure in an accumulator storage chamber in three distinct stages. The first stage is the immediate blocking of fluid flow from the storage chamber by a flow control valve when fluid passing therethrough in one direction exceeds a predetermined flow rate. The second stage is reducing the fluid pressure in the storage chamber to a predetermined level by a relief valve when the flow control valve is in its flow blocking position. The third stage is accomplished by restricting fluid flow from the storage chamber at a predetermined flow rate through an orifice so that the main stage modulatably controls the reduction of fluid pressure in the brake chamber.

Abstract: An apparatus for controlling a clutch or brake in an application with variable torque requirements. Control logic momentarily sets the control signal to an initial level to allow adequate time to engage the clutch or brake, and then changes the control signal at an acceptable rate until reaching the required torque level. The initial level is varied based upon the required torque, such that at low levels of required torque, a signal with low initial torque (although possibly higher than the required torque), is used to achieve smoother engagement at some sacrifice in response, and at higher levels of required torque, a signal with higher initial torque is used to improve response.

Abstract: An apparatus is provided for use in a vehicle having an engine driven transmission which includes a plurality of gear ratios. The apparatus includes a sensor adapted to sense a parameter indicative of vehicle speed and responsively produce a vehicle speed signal. A downshift switch is provided to controllably produce a downshift signal. An engine speed sensor senses engine speed and responsively produces an engine speed signal. A controller is adapted to receive the vehicle speed, engine speed, and downshift signals, process the vehicle speed signal to produce a transmission control signal, produce a down shift enable value as a function of the engine speed signal, and modify the transmission control signal to correspond to a lower gear ratio in all but the lowest gear ratio when the downshift signal is received and a value responsive to the vehicle speed signal is less than the down shift enable value signal. An actuator is adapted to receive the transmission control signal and responsively control the transmission gear ratio.
