ABSTRACT:
A valve piston in an automotive power-steering system has a pair of inner peripheral grooves, defined by confronting lands of adjoining piston heads, normally communicating with the high-pressure side of an oil pump via symmetrical branch channels and with the low-pressure side of that pump via a common return channel. The piston also has a pair of outer peripheral grooves, normally cut off from the adjoining inner grooves, connected to opposite cylinder chambers of a hydraulic servomotor. The inner grooves communicate with a pair of axial piston bores receiving fixed or spring-loaded plungers for exerting a counteracting hydraulic pressure upon the piston upon a displacement thereof from its centered position, such displacement also opening the path from one branch channel via the corresponding inner groove and the adjoining outer groove to a corresponding servomotor chamber. The lands bounding the inner grooves are so shaped that, upon any piston shift away from the centered position, a progressive throttling of the return path to the low-pressure side occurs at one inner groove substantially simultaneously with the establishment of a connection between the other inner groove and the adjoining outer groove, followed by a blocking of the return path from that other inner groove before complete cutoff of that connection.
