ABSTRACT:
A control valve for a fluid actuator has a slide valve member mounted within a housing or body with an external knob on one end and a piston on the other end. The body has a central bore with an enlarged bore portion forming a valve chamber in which the piston is mounted for reciprocation. The chamber adjacent one piston face forms a fluid storage chamber and the chamber adjacent the other piston face forms a fluid pressure chamber to receive pressurized fluid. A one-way check valve is positioned between the two chambers and permits fluid pressure in the fluid storage chamber to be equalized with the fluid pressure in the pressure chamber. Upon a subsequent exhaust of fluid from the fluid pressure chamber, the piston will move quickly to a seated position under the fluid pressure in the storage chamber without any separate urging means, such as a spring, being necessary.
