VELOCITY RATE CHANGE SENSITIVE FLUID VALVE

摘要

A velocity rate change sensitive fluid valve is disclosed. The valve is comprised of a pendulum member pivotally supported in a reservoir of fluid. The pendulum member is arranged to intercommunicate an input port and an output port with the fluid reservoir upon pendulous movement. The pendulum is supported by a fixed shaft which is ported along its axis to define fluid input and output passages. The pendulum member includes an intercommunicating passage which, upon displacement of the pendulum by a predetermined amount of rotation, as for example by an acceleration or deceleration, will intercommunicate the input and output passages of the support shaft. Fluid flow of fluid pressure may then be communicated through the valve as as acceleration or deceleration indicative signal.
