A valve block arrangement configured as a closed center system includes at least one main spool for controlling a hydraulic consumer. The main spool is configured to open and close at least one pressure medium connection between a hydraulic pump and the consumer in controlled, continuous fashion and, in at least one embodiment, is electrically activated. A bypass flow path with a cut valve branches off between the adjustable, hydraulic pump and the main spool. The cut valve is configured to open and close a pressure medium connection between the hydraulic pump and a tank in controlled, continuous fashion. The cut valve is electrically activatable.

Systems and methods are provided for a hydraulic stabilizer trim actuator (HSTA). The HSTA may operate one or more movable control surfaces. The HSTA operate responsive to commands issued by the pilot and/or by a controller and may include hydraulic architecture that minimizes the probability of an un-commanded movement or movement in the opposite direction of such commands

A fluid pressure control device includes a switching valve, a main pilot passage and a sub pilot passage, the switching valve is configured to be switched to the open position when the working fluid is supplied to the pilot chamber, and to be switched to the throttled position with opening on the downstream side of the switching valve in the neutral passage, and the sub pilot passage is provided with a throttle portion and a check valve in parallel in the throttle portion.

A system for detecting leaks in a hydraulic supply system for a double-acting hydraulic actuator is disclosed. The system may include a first conduit in fluid communication with a first chamber of the actuator, and with a second chamber of the actuator, and a directional control valve coupled with the first conduit and the second conduit. A directional control valve may be in fluid communication with a hydraulic oil supply line and may switch between the hydraulic oil being sent and received via the first conduit and second conduit. A valve can be associated with the oil supply line. A first and second flow meter can generate a first signal and a second signal, respectively, indicating flow rate within the first conduit and the second conduit. A controller may receive the first signal and the second signal, calculate their ratio, and cause the valve to inhibit flow within the oil supply line upon the ratio differing from a given ratio by more than a predetermined threshold.

A pneumatic control device of auto door includes a first directional control valve configured to control a direction of a compressed air supplied to a door cylinder for opening and closing a door, a door detection sensor configured to detect an open/close state of the door, first and second exhaust lines respectively connected to first and second outlet ports of the first directional control valve, and second directional control valves installed in the first and second exhaust lines respectively to operably exhaust the compressed air exhausted from the first and second outlet ports according to an emergency stop signal, and capable of changing positions to reduce an exhaust speed of the compressed air in case that the door is not completely open or closed when an operation signal is generated after the emergency stop signal.

An apparatus for monitoring the pressurisation of a control valve for a hydraulic actuator and a control valve. The apparatus including a spool movable along an axis (X), wherein the spool is configured to control the flow of hydraulic fluid through the control valve based on its position along the axis (X), and wherein in an unpressurised state of the control valve the spool occupies a first axial position, and in a pressurised state of the control valve the spool occupies a second, different axial position. The apparatus also including a position sensor configured to monitor the position of the spool within the control valve and detect whether the spool occupies the first axial position or the second axial position, wherein the first axial position and the second axial position correspond to neutral positions of the spool.
