<p>A hydromechanical differentiating system (10) for actuator dynamic stiffness enhancement and dynamic load damping. A free floating spool valve (12) receives a pressure signal and moves in opposite directions away from a null position. When the valve moves in response to an increase in the pressure signal (p1), it compresses fluid in a chamber (30) connected at the opposite end of the cylinder in which the spool moves and simultaneously connects a source of fluid (22) under pressure to the chamber causing the valve to return to its null position. Conversely, if the pressure signal decreases, the spool valve allows the fluid in the chamber to expand moving the valve away from the chamber and simultanously connecting system return to the chamber to decrease the fluid pressure in the chamber and cause the valve to return to its null position.</p> |
