<p>A piezoelectric torque motor (10) includes a body (11), a pair of opposed nozzle assemblies (12,13) mounted on the body, a pair of piezoelectric actuators (14,15) extending upwardly away from the body, and a lever assembly (16) having an upper portion (95) engaging the upper ends of the actuators and having depending leg portions (96,98). A foot plate (94) is mounted on the lower marginal end portions of the lever legs, and is positioned between the nozzles. The piezoelectric actuators are supplied with differential voltages to cause swinging movement of the lever assembly between the nozzles. The improves torque motor may be used in the first- or pilot-stage of a two-stage electrohydraulic servovalve.</p> |
