    Abstract: An electronically switchable, bi-stable two-port valve includes a sleeve, a first pole piece having air flow passages formed therethrough and a first wire-wound coil mounted therein and connected to a source of electrical power, a second pole piece having air flow passages formed therethrough and a second wire-wound coil mounted therein and connected to the source of electrical power, and a permanent magnet defining an armature and movably mounted between the first and second pole pieces. The first pole piece is mounted in a first end of the sleeve and the second pole piece is mounted in a second end of the sleeve.

    Abstract: A microvalve includes a first plate having an inner surface, a recessed region provided within the inner surface, a normally open fluid port and a normally closed fluid port provided within the recessed region. A first sealing structure extends about the normally open fluid port, and a second sealing structure extends about the normally closed fluid port. A second plate defines a non-movable portion and a movable portion. A surface of the non-movable portion abuts the inner surface of the first plate, the non-movable portion having an opening formed therethrough. The movable portion is formed within the opening, has an axis, and defines a displaceable member connected to the non-movable portion by a convoluted spring formed in the opening. The displaceable member is slidingly and axially movable within the opening between a first position, wherein the displaceable member cooperates with the second sealing structure to prevent fluid communication through the normally closed fluid port, and a second position, wherein the displaceable member does not cooperate with at least a portion of the second sealing structure to prevent fluid communication through the normally closed fluid port.

    Abstract: A spool assembly configured for use in a two-stage proportional control valve in a fluid system includes a substantially cylindrical sleeve having an axially extending sleeve bore extending from an open first end to an open second end. A spool includes a spool bore that extends from an open first axial end to a closed second axial end and is slidably mounted within the sleeve bore. The spool further includes a first circumferentially extending groove defining a fluid flow path, a second circumferentially extending groove formed near a first end thereof, a third circumferentially extending groove formed near the second axial end thereof, a circumferentially extending pressure groove formed therein between the second axial end and the third circumferentially extending groove, and first, second, and third transverse fluid passageways formed through a side wall of the spool.

    Abstract: A hybrid spool valve includes a body having a longitudinal bore. The bore has a fluid inlet chamber in fluid communication with a fluid inlet port and a fluid outlet chamber in fluid communication with a fluid outlet port. A spool is slidably mounted in the bore and is movable between a fully open position, a fully closed position, and a plurality of partially open positions. A pilot microvalve is mounted within the bore and is configured to control the sliding movement of the spool by varying the flow of fluid therethrough. A seal is disposed in a groove formed in an outside surface of the spool such that when the spool is in the fully closed position the seal engages a wall of the bore, and when the spool is the fully open position or one of the partially open positions the seal does not engage the bore.
