ABSTRACT:
A valve for controlling fluid flow comprising first and second relatively movable valve members. The first valve member has a first fluid cavity. The second valve member has a second fluid cavity. The second valve member has a land partially defining the second fluid cavity. The land has an outer surface portion and edges on the opposite sides of the outer surface portion. The land has edges on the respective opposite sides of the surface portion. The valve members are relatively movable from the neutral position for directing fluid flow between the first and second fluid cavities across one edge of the land upon relative movement therebetween. A groove in the surface portion of the land provides a reservoir of fluid to be drawn into the fluid flow across the one edge of the land.
