    摘要: A servo valve assembly includes a housing defining a cylindrical cavity having a central axis, and a spool disposed in the cavity and co-axially aligned with the central axis. A pair of transition portions define opposing conical cavity surfaces each connect a respective one of first and second cylindrical cavity portions with a third cylindrical cavity portion. The spool comprises a pair of blocking members projecting radially, and each of the blocking members defines a conical blocking surface opposing a respective one of the conical cavity surfaces to define a fluid flow passage therebetween. A cone angle of each conical blocking surface relative to the central is equal to a cone angle of the opposing conical cavity surface relative to the central axis. The spool is moveable along the central axis to vary a flow area of the flow passages between the conical blocking surfaces and the conical cavity surfaces.

    摘要: A nozzle for a servo valve comprises an annular body defining an outer circumferential surface and an inner circumferential surface of the nozzle. An annular groove is disposed around the circumference of the annular body in the outer circumferential surface. A nozzle assembly (N) for a servo valve comprises the nozzle and a nozzle housing having a nozzle cavity defined by an inner circumferential cavity surface. The nozzle housing has an annular groove disposed around the circumference of the nozzle cavity in the inner circumferential cavity surface. The nozzle is received within the nozzle cavity such that the annular grooves in the nozzle and the nozzle housing are in fluid communication with each other.

    摘要: A servo valve includes a valve housing, a cavity formed in the valve housing defining an axis (X) and an axially moveable member disposed in the cavity. The member comprises flat surfaces parallel to the axis (X). A channel is formed within the cavity and a plurality of ports each forming a fluid passage through the valve housing in fluid communication with a spool and with the channel. The plurality of ports include first and second nozzles with nozzle openings, wherein in a first axial position of the member the first nozzle opening is at least substantially obstructed by the first flat surface, and in a second axial position of the member the second nozzle opening is at least substantially obstructed by the second surface, the member controlling fluid between the spool and the channel.

    摘要: A servo valve assembly includes a first nozzle opposing a second nozzle and a shaft positioned in the gap between the first and second nozzles. The first and second nozzles are spaced apart by a gap and each nozzle has an outlet opening. The shaft defines a diameter (D) and a circumferential surface and is rotatable about an axis of rotation (R-R). The shaft defines first and second reduced radial portions around its circumferential surface, and the first and second reduced radial portions are in fluid communication with the first and second nozzle outlet openings, respectively. The shaft is configured to rotate between a first position where the first nozzle outlet opening is more occluded by the shaft circumferential surface than the second nozzle outlet opening, and a second position where the first nozzle outlet opening is less occluded by the shaft circumferential surface than the second nozzle outlet opening.
