Fluidic switching control system - uses fluidic storing point elements with several stable states

摘要

The fluidic control system consists of a number of fluidic switching elements forming a series of storing points. The fluidic element has four stable states. It has a supply connection with a supply channel in continuation which decreases to supply the nozzle. The nozzle terminates in a chamber with four partitions whose lower edges are set off against the supply nozzle. The element has with four control ports to which the control input signals are transmitted. The element is further fitted with relief openings. The flow leaving the supply nozzle on the element with four stable stages clings to one of the tacking partitions and produces an output signal on the corresponding outlet connection.
