ABSTRACT:
A force feedback popper valve has a valve element for controlling fluid flow from an inlet port to an outlet port. A meter-in orifice communicates pressurized fluid from the inlet port to a control chamber above the valve element. A pilot valve provides a meter-out orifice between the control chamber and the outlet port to selectively reduce the pressure level in the control chamber in response to a control force applied to the pilot valve. A feedback spring is disposed in the control chamber between the valve element and the pilot valve so that displacement of the valve element is proportional to the control force exerted against the pilot valve.
