Pressure balanced poppett with check
Described herein is a pressure balanced valve comprising: an armature, wherein the armature has an inlet channel, at least one aperture, and a pressure feedback pin disposed within a hollow interior of the armature, a poppet slidably disposed within the hollow interior and around the pressure feedback pin to enable fluid communication between the pressure feedback pin and the poppet, the poppet and the pressure feedback pin cooperatively comprising the pressure balanced valve, wherein the poppet has at least one channel therethrough, and a biasing spring fit to bias the poppet towards closing the inlet channel.
1 . A pressure balanced valve comprising:
an armature, wherein said armature has an inlet channel, at least one aperture, and a pressure feedback pin disposed within a hollow interior of said armature;
a poppet slidably disposed within said hollow interior and around said pressure feedback pin to enable fluid communication between said pressure feedback pin and said poppet, wherein said poppet has at least one channel therethrough;
a biasing spring fit to bias said poppet towards closing said inlet channel;
a check shim disposed over said at least one channel of said poppet;
a shim spring to bias said check shim; and
a groove in said armature, wherein said groove allows limited flow in a direction opposite of what said check shim normally allows.
2 . The pressure balanced valve of claim 1 further comprising:
a disk disposed around said inlet channel of said armature.
3 . The pressure balanced valve of claim 1 further comprising:
a bleed shim disposed between said check shim and said at least one channel, said bleed shim to allow low fluid flow through said at least one channel in a direction opposite of what said check shim normally allows.
4 . The pressure balanced valve of claim 1 wherein, said pressure balanced valve is disposed between an external reservoir and a main piston.
5 . The pressure balanced valve of claim 1 wherein, if a fluid pressure from said inlet channel reaches a minimum threshold, said poppet will move to allow fluid flow.
6 . The pressure balanced valve of claim 1 wherein, said at least one channel limits fluid flow such that said poppet essentially hydro locks in an open position.
7 . A pressure balanced valve comprising:
an armature, wherein said armature has an inlet channel, at least one aperture, and a pressure feedback pin disposed within a hollow interior of said armature;
a poppet slidably disposed within said hollow interior and around said pressure feedback pin, wherein said poppet has at least one channel therethrough;
a biasing spring fit to bias said poppet towards closing said inlet channel;
a check shim disposed over said at least one channel of said poppet;
a shim spring to bias said check shim; and
a groove in said armature, said groove allows limited flow in a direction opposite of what said check shim normally allows.
8 . The pressure balanced valve of claim 7 further comprising:
a disk disposed around said inlet channel of said armature.
9 . The pressure balanced valve of claim 7 further comprising:
a bleed shim disposed between said check shim and said at least one channel, said bleed shim to allow low fluid flow through said channels in a direction opposite of what said check shim normally allows.
10 . The pressure balanced valve of claim 7 wherein, if a fluid pressure from said inlet channel reaches a minimum threshold, said poppet will move to allow fluid flow.
11 . The pressure balanced valve of claim 7 wherein, said at least one channel and said check shim limits fluid flow such that said poppet essentially hydro locks in an open position.
12 . A pressure balanced valve comprising:
an armature, wherein said armature has an inlet channel, at least one aperture, and a pressure feedback pin disposed within a hollow interior of said armature;
a poppet slidably disposed within said hollow interior and around said pressure feedback pin, wherein said poppet has at least one channel therethrough;
a biasing spring fit to bias said poppet towards closing said inlet channel;
a check shim disposed over said at least one channel of said poppet;
a shim spring to bias said check shim; and
a bleed shim disposed between said check shim and said at least one channel, said bleed shim to allow low fluid flow through said channels in a direction opposite of what said check shim normally allows.
13 . The pressure balanced valve of claim 1 wherein, if a fluid pressure from said inlet channel reaches a minimum threshold, said poppet will move to allow fluid flow.
14 . The pressure balanced valve of claim 13 wherein, said at least one channel and said check shim limits fluid flow such that said poppet essentially hydro locks in an open position.
