HYDROSTATISK HJAELPEKRAFTSTYRING FORTRINSVIS TIL AUTOMOBILER

摘要

An auxiliary steering flow control device having known features of a rotatable steering spindle which initially effects axial shift of a valve sleeve through a torsional stressing device acting on a pair of compressibly arched leaf springs longitudinally disposed on the axis of the steering spindle and carried in a holder within the steering spindle. The leaf springs have contiguous contacting arched surfaces on the steering spindle axis and the arched configuration effects a back to back pretensing that augments the potential energy that can be stored in the springs, particularly in arched surface contiguity with each other.
