ABSTRACT:
A torque-generating steering device is provided for use with a pump (19) having a pressure compensator (23) for varying the output of the pump. The device includes a gerotor displacement means (43) which provides a relatively high-torque output to an output shaft (29) in response to the flow of fluid through the gerotor. A spool valve (73) and sleeve valve (75) define a fluid path (119) from an inlet port (13) through the gerotor to an outlet port (15). The fluid path includes a main variable flow control orifice (121) in series flow between the inlet and the gerotor, the orifice having a zero flow area when the spool and sleeve are in their neutral position, and a maximum flow area when the spool and sleeve are in an operating position. The device defines a load-sensing port (115) communicating with the pressure compensator (23) and with the fluid path (119), downstream of the orifice (121).
