Exemplary control valves that may be configured as a load sense, closed-center, and/or open-center valve. The control valve may include optional individual valve force sensing to potentially allow an operator to smoothly operate devices operating on low-load work ports even when a variable displacement pump is inducing pressure to operate a device connected to a high-load work port of a separate valve or worksection in the same stack. This optional force sensing may be employed on any or all worksections associated with any valve stack, and may further be included on one or both workports for any given worksection. Each worksection may include parallel and variable paths of fluid supplied by the pump. Also, flow priority to one or more worksections or external valves in a corresponding hydraulic system is optional and can be customized using the variable flow path and a corresponding fixed restriction.

A pressure compensation valve comprises a valve body, a valve sleeve fixedly mounted on the valve body, and a spool disposed in a valve hole of the valve body and capable of moving. The pressure compensation valve can change the pressure compensation characteristic, that is, the pressure compensation valve can change the difficult degree of the pressurized oil liquid flowing by changing an effective pressure acting surface of the pressure compensation valve The structure is simple, requires low cost, and increases the utilization rate of a product.

A hydraulic control circuit includes a pressure regulator valve, a first pilot valve, a second pilot valve, and a third pilot valve. A first pilot pressure is introduced as a source pressure into the primary solenoid valve that generates a primary signal pressure and a secondary solenoid valve that generates a secondary signal pressure. A second pilot pressure is introduced as a source pressure into a lock-up solenoid valve that generates the lock-up signal pressure. A third pilot pressure is introduced as a damping pressure into a primary regulator valve that controls a primary pulley pressure according to the primary signal pressure, and into a secondary regulator valve that controls a secondary pulley pressure according to the secondary signal pressure.

The present document relates to a hydraulic system having a first hydraulic pump, a second hydraulic pump, at least one hydraulic actuator, a low-pressure tank, and a pressure controlled flow compensating valve. A high-pressure port of the first hydraulic pump and a high-pressure port of the second hydraulic pump are fluidly connected or fluidly connectable to the at least one hydraulic actuator. The high-pressure port of the second hydraulic pump is selectively fluidly connectable to the low-pressure tank via the flow compensating valve. The flow compensating valve is controllable by or based on one or more of: a hydraulic pressure provided by the first hydraulic pump, a hydraulic pressure provided by the second hydraulic pump, and a hydraulic pressure at a fluid port of the at least one hydraulic actuator.

An example valve includes: a seat member; a spool configured to be seated on the seat member to block fluid flow from a first port to a second port when the valve is in a closed state, wherein fluid at the first port applies a fluid force on the spool; a spring applying a biasing force on the spool toward the seat member, wherein as the fluid force overcomes the biasing force, the spool moves in the proximal direction off the seat member, thereby allowing fluid flow from the first port to the second port through a flow area formed between the spool and the seat member; a turbine configured to rotate as fluid flowing through the flow area flows downstream across the turbine; and an electric generator coupled to the turbine, such that rotation of the turbine causes the electric generator to generate electric power.
