ABSTRACT:
The invention is a mechanical-type position-sensing and feedback system employed between a main stage spool valve and a pilot stage spool valve of an electro-hydraulic servovalve. The feedback mechanism makes use of a rotatable feedback link that directly senses the position of the slide of the main stage valve and transforms a linear motion of the slide into a linear movement of the sleeve of the pilot stage valve. The feedback link has an elongated body and is adapted for rotation about its body's longitudinal axis.
