Abstract

A hydraulic distributor that has a regulating balance including a housing hollowed in the distributor body and containing coaxially a fixed central core. A tubular plunger is interposed sliding freely, coaxially, between the core and the housing and co-operates with a lateral orifice connected to a working orifice. The core and the plunger define between them an annular chamber. The plunger has a first radial annular surface subjected to the highest charge pressure (LS) and a second annular surface subjected to the pressure of the intake fluid. A central passage in the core constitutes a first orifice emerging at one end of the housing exposed to the highest charge pressure (LS). A second orifice emerges in the annular chamber and a third orifice is located opposite the other end of the housing and remains closed by the plunger as long as the charge pressure of the distributor is below the highest charge pressure (LS).

Description

La présente invention concerne des perfectionnements apportés aux distributeurs hydrauliques tels que définis dans le préambule de la revendication 1.The present invention relates to improvements brought to hydraulic distributors as defined in the preamble of claim 1.

A la figure 1 des dessins annexés est représenté à titre d'exemple, en coupe transversale, un mode de réalisation connu d'un tel distributeur tel qu'il apparaít à la figure 1 du document FR-A-2 689 575 au nom de la Demanderesse.In Figure 1 of the accompanying drawings is shown in as an example, in cross section, an embodiment known to such a distributor as it appears in the Figure 1 of document FR-A-2 689 575 in the name of the Applicant.

Le distributeur comporte un corps 1 muni d'un orifice P d'admission du fluide sous pression en provenance d'une source hydraulique (non montrée). Dans l'exemple représenté, ledit orifice P est constitué sous forme d'un canal 2 traversant le corps 1 transversalement au plan du dessin et débouchant sur les deux faces principales dudit corps servant d'appui lors de l'empilage côte-à-côte et l'un contre l'autre de plusieurs distributeurs. Au moins un orifice T (constitué sous forme d'un canal traversant le corps 1 transversalement au plan du dessin et débouchant sur les deux faces principales dudit corps) sert au retour du fluide vers un réservoir (non représenté). Deux orifices de travail A, B sont raccordables à un appareil ou récepteur hydraulique (non représenté). Un tiroir 4 de distribution est apte à coulisser dans un alésage 5 qui traverse longitudinalement le corps 1 et débouche sur deux faces opposées d'extrémité 6, 7 de celui-ci. De façon classique, le corps 1 et le tiroir 4 comportent des passages et/ou des canalisations et/ou des gorges agencés de manière à coopérer en vue d'établir et/ou d'interrompre les liaisons entre les divers orifices P, A, B, T du corps du distributeur selon la position axiale occupée par le tiroir dans l'alésage. Les agencements spécifiques de ces passages et/ou canalisations et/ou gorges sont déterminés par l'Homme de Métier en relation avec les fonctions souhaitées pour le distributeur.The dispenser comprises a body 1 provided with a port P for admission of pressurized fluid from a hydraulic source (not shown). In the example shown, said orifice P is formed in the form of a channel 2 passing through the body 1 transversely to the plane of the drawing and opening onto the two main faces of said body serving as support when stacking side by side and one against the other of several distributors. At least one orifice T (constituted in the form of a channel crossing the body 1 transversely to the plane of the drawing and opening onto the two main faces of said body) is used to return the fluid to a reservoir (not shown). Two ports of work A, B can be connected to a device or receiver hydraulic (not shown). A distribution drawer 4 is able to slide in a bore 5 which passes longitudinally the body 1 and opens on two opposite faces end 6, 7 thereof. Classically, the body 1 and the drawer 4 have passages and / or pipes and / or grooves arranged to cooperate with a view to to establish and / or to interrupt the connections between the various holes P, A, B, T of the distributor body according to the axial position occupied by the slide in the bore. The specific arrangements of these passages and / or pipes and / or grooves are determined by the skilled person in relationship with the desired functions for the distributor.

En outre, dans cet exemple spécifique, le corps 1 comporte encore un autre canal transversal 8 s'étendant entre les faces principales du corps et combiné avec au moins un sélecteur de pression permettant de transmettre, dans un canal 18 situé en aval du tiroir distributeur 4, la plus forte (pression "load sensing" ou pression LS) des deux pressions constituées respectivement par la pression dans ledit canal en amont du distributeur et une pression de travail du distributeur.Furthermore, in this specific example, the body 1 has yet another transverse channel 8 extending between the main faces of the body and combined with at minus a pressure selector for transmitting, in a channel 18 located downstream of the distributor drawer 4, the higher (load sensing pressure or LS pressure) of the two pressures constituted respectively by the pressure in said channel upstream of the distributor and a pressure of work of the distributor.

Le canal 2 raccordé à l'orifice d'admission P débouche dans l'alésage 5 du corps dans une chambre d'admission 10 de celui-ci, à proximité de laquelle une autre chambre 11 communique, par un passage 12, avec un logement 13 dans lequel est monté à libre coulissement étanche un plongeur 14. Le passage 12 débouche dans le logement 13 à une extrémité de celui-ci, ici l'extrémité inférieure (correspondant à une face d'extrémité du plongeur 14, ici son extrémité inférieure), tandis qu'à son extrémité opposée (ici son extrémité supérieure) le logement 13 débouche dans une cavité 15 dans laquelle peut se déplacer la tête 16 du plongeur 14. La tête 16, élargie par rapport au corps du plongeur, peut prendre appui sur un épaulement formé au débouché du logement 13 dans la cavité 15 pour retenir le plongeur 14. Un ressort 17 est prévu dans la cavité 15 pour repousser le plongeur 14 contre ledit épaulement de manière à fixer sa position en l'absence de pression. Le canal 8 précité débouche dans la cavité 15, de telle sorte que la pression règnant dans le canal 8 soit également présente dans la cavité 15 et s'exerce alors sur l'extrémité correspondante du plongeur 14 (ici son extrémité supérieure).Channel 2 connected to the intake port P opens into the bore 5 of the body in an intake chamber 10 of it, near which another room 11 communicates, through a passage 12, with an accommodation 13 in which a sealed free sliding is mounted plunger 14. The passage 12 opens into the housing 13 at one end of it, here the lower end (corresponding to an end face of the plunger 14, here its lower end), while at its opposite end (here its upper end) the housing 13 opens into a cavity 15 in which the head 16 of the plunger 14. The head 16, enlarged relative to the body of the diver, can rest on a shoulder formed at outlet of the housing 13 in the cavity 15 to retain the plunger 14. A spring 17 is provided in the cavity 15 for push the plunger 14 against said shoulder so to fix its position in the absence of pressure. Channel 8 above opens into cavity 15, so that the pressure prevailing in channel 8 is also present in the cavity 15 and is then exerted on the corresponding end of the plunger 14 (here its upper end).

En outre, le plongeur 14 est traversé par un canal axial 18 débouchant, d'un côté, dans sa face d'extrémité en regard du passage 12 et, de l'autre côté, dans un canal diamétral 19 traversant le plongeur 14 et disposé de manière à être obturé par la paroi du logement 13 lorsque le plongeur 14 est dans la position de repos imposée par le ressort 17 (montré à la figure 1) ou dans une position non complètement relevée. Une partie 28 du canal axial 18 est agencé sous forme d'une restriction ou d'un gicleur.In addition, the plunger 14 is crossed by a channel axial 18 opening, on one side, into its end face in look from passage 12 and, on the other side, in a canal diametral 19 passing through the plunger 14 and arranged so to be closed by the wall of the housing 13 when the plunger 14 is in the rest position imposed by the spring 17 (shown in Figure 1) or in a non-position completely raised. Part 28 of the axial channel 18 is arranged in the form of a restriction or a nozzle.

La portion du tiroir 4 qui s'étend, en position neutre, entre les chambres 10 et 11 en les isolant l'une de l'autre est munie d'encoches de progressivité 20 destinées à assurer un écoulement contrôlé du fluide hydraulique dans le sens approprié lorsque le tiroir est déplacé dans un sens ou dans l'autre.The portion of the drawer 4 which extends, in position neutral, between chambers 10 and 11 by isolating one of them the other is provided with progressivity notches 20 intended to ensure a controlled flow of hydraulic fluid in the correct direction when the drawer is moved in one direction or in the other.

A partir du logement 13 précité s'étendent, dans deux directions approximativement diamétralement opposées, deux conduits 21 dans un desquels ou dans chacun desquels est disposé un clapet antiretour 22, les deux conduits 21 débouchant, dans l'alésage 5, dans deux chambres respectives 23.From the aforementioned housing 13 extend, in two approximately diametrically opposite directions, two conduits 21 in one of which or in each of which there is a non-return valve 22, the two conduits 21 opening into bore 5 in two respective chambers 23.

A proximité des chambres 23, deux chambres de distribution respectives 24 de l'alésage 5 sont réunies, par des conduits 25, aux orifices de travail ou orifices de départ respectifs A et B du distributeur.Near bedrooms 23, two bedrooms respective distribution 24 of bore 5 are joined together, by conduits 25, to the working orifices or respective departure A and B of the distributor.

Enfin, au-delà des chambres de distribution 24, respectivement deux chambres de retour 26 de l'alésage 5 sont raccordées, par des conduits 27, au canal de retour 3 débouchant sur l'orifice de retour T.Finally, beyond the distribution chambers 24, respectively two return chambers 26 of bore 5 are connected, by conduits 27, to the return channel 3 leading to the return orifice T.

Le fonctionnement du distributeur qui vient d'être décrit est exposé de façon détaillée dans le document FR 2 689 575 déjà cité, auquel on pourra se reporter.The operation of the distributor which has just been described is detailed in the document FR 2,689,575 already cited, to which reference may be made.

Bien qu'un distributeur agencé comme il vient d'être décrit donne satisfaction dans son principe général de réalisation, il présente toutefois un inconvénient dans certaines conditions de fonctionnement. Un tel distributeur est destiné non pas à être utilisé seul, mais à être associé avec plusieurs autres distributeurs de même type pour constituer un dispositif de distribution hydraulique multiple. Les distributeurs sont alors de préférence empilés de façon étanche les uns contre les autres par leurs faces principales ou grandes faces de sorte que les conduits respectifs P, T et LS (canaux 8) communiquent tous les uns avec les autres et constituent des conduits traversant l'empilement de part en part pour assurer le fonctionnement du dispositif de distribution multiple.Although a distributor arranged as it has just been described gives satisfaction in its general principle of realization, however, it has a drawback in certain operating conditions. Such a distributor is not intended to be used alone, but to be combined with several other distributors of the same type for constitute a hydraulic distribution device multiple. The dispensers are then preferably stacked tightly against each other by their faces main or large faces so the conduits respective P, T and LS (channels 8) all communicate with the others and constitute conduits crossing stacking from side to side to ensure operation of the multiple distribution device.

Lorsque, dans un tel dispositif de distribution multiple, plusieurs tranches (distributeurs unitaires) sont commandées simultanément pour des mouvements importants des récepteurs hydrauliques asservis, il apparaít des instabilités dûes à une insuffisance d'amortissement des mouvements des balances. Autrement dit, en raison des déplacements simultanés des balances dans les distributeurs respectifs, les balances réagissent les unes sur les autres par l'inter-médiaire du canal LS et un équilibre de la pression LS ne s'établit que difficilement.When, in such a distribution device multiple, several units (single distributors) are simultaneously controlled for large movements of slaved hydraulic receivers, instabilities appear due to insufficient damping of movements scales. In other words, because of the displacement scales in the respective distributors, scales react with each other through the medium of the LS channel and an LS pressure balance does is difficult to establish.

L'invention a donc pour but de proposer un agencement perfectionné du distributeur qui évite cet inconvénient et qui conduise à une stabilisation rapide de la pression LS en cas de commande multiple.The object of the invention is therefore to propose an arrangement improved distributor which avoids this drawback and which leads to a rapid stabilization of the LS pressure in case of multiple orders.

A cet effet, il est proposé un distributeur hydraulique tel que défini dans la revendication 1. To this end, a hydraulic distributor is proposed such as defined in claim 1.

L'agencement de balance qui vient d'être exposé conserve les dispositions et fonctionnements de base de la balance équipant le distributeur connu représenté à la fig. 1. Le noyau central fixe incorpore le gicleur du conduit de liaison entre la première extrémité du logement recevant le fluide d'admission et la seconde extrémité du logement sous la pression LS ; le plongeur tubulaire, coulissant autour du noyau central, assure la génération du différentiel de pression Δp entre la pression du fluide en provenance de la source hydraulique et la pression de charge fournie à l'orifice latéral du logement, puis à l'orifice de travail.The balance arrangement which has just been exposed retains the basic provisions and operations of the scale equipping the known dispenser shown in fig. 1. The fixed central core incorporates the nozzle of the connection between the first end of the housing receiving the intake fluid and the second end of the housing under the pressure LS; the tubular plunger, sliding around the central core, ensures the generation of the differential pressure Δp between the pressure of the fluid coming from the hydraulic source and the charge pressure supplied to the lateral opening of the housing, then to the working opening.

De préférence, en outre, le deuxième orifice du passage du noyau est pourvu d'une restriction de manière que le déplacement du plongeur soit freiné hydrauliquement : on constitue ainsi des moyens d'amortissement (chambre à volume variable définie entre le plongeur tubulaire et le noyau central et réunie par ledit second gicleur au passage central) qui contrôlent le déplacement du plongeur tubulaire et qui évitent la vibration de celui-ci.Preferably, moreover, the second orifice of the passage of the nucleus is provided with a restriction so that the displacement of the plunger is braked hydraulically: thus constitutes damping means (volume chamber variable defined between the tubular plunger and the core central and joined by said second nozzle in passing central) which control the movement of the tubular plunger and which avoid the vibration of it.

Dans un mode de réalisation avantageux, le noyau comprend, du côté de la seconde extrémité du logement, un corps élargi et, du côté de la première extrémité du logement, une partie rétrécie ; le plongeur tubulaire comprend une partie de grand diamètre entourant le corps élargi du noyau et une partie de petit diamètre entourant la partie rétrécie du noyau ; et le corps élargi du noyau possède une longueur moindre que la partie de grand diamètre du plongeur de manière à définir, entre le noyau et le plongeur, la susdite chambre annulaire.In an advantageous embodiment, the core includes, on the side of the second end of the housing, a enlarged body and, on the side of the first end of the housing, a narrowed portion; the tubular plunger includes a large diameter portion surrounding the body enlarged nucleus and a small diameter portion surrounding the narrowed part of the nucleus; and the enlarged nucleus body has a shorter length than the large diameter part of the plunger so as to define, between the core and the diver, the aforesaid annular chamber.

De façon intéressante, la restriction de la balance est disposée dans le troisième orifice précité du passage du noyau.Interestingly, restricting the balance is arranged in the third aforementioned opening of the passage of the core.

Dans un exemple de réalisation structurellement simple, le logement est constitué par un alésage débouchant sur une face du corps du distributeur et cet alésage est obturé par un bouchon étanche qui bloque le noyau dans le logement.In a structural example simple, the housing is constituted by a through bore on one face of the distributor body and this bore is closed by a watertight stopper which blocks the core in the housing.

Enfin, pour réduire autant que possible les usinages de pièces, on peut prévoir que le noyau central est en fonte ou en bronze brut de moulage et que le plongeur tubulaire est en acier et est rectifié sur sa face intérieure.Finally, to reduce machining as much as possible parts, we can predict that the central core is made of cast iron or in raw bronze casting and that the tubular plunger is made of steel and is ground on its inside.

L'invention sera mieux comprise à la lecture de la description détaillée qui suit d'un mode de réalisation préféré d'un distributeur hydraulique agencé selon l'invention. Dans cette description, on se réfère aux figures 2A et 2B qui sont des vues partielles du distributeur de la figure 1 montrant, en coupe et dans deux positions fonctionnelles respectives différentes, la balance de régulation agencée selon l'invention.The invention will be better understood on reading the detailed description which follows of an embodiment preferred of a hydraulic distributor arranged according to the invention. In this description, reference is made to FIGS. 2A and 2B which are partial views of the dispenser of FIG. 1 showing, in section and in two functional positions respective, the regulatory balance arranged according to the invention.

Sur les figures 2A et 2B, on conserve les mêmes références pour désigner les organes identiques à ceux de la figure 1.In FIGS. 2A and 2B, we keep the same references to designate bodies identical to those of the figure 1.

La balance, désignée dans son ensemble par la référence 29, est constituée de deux pièces abritées dans le logement 13, à savoir un noyau central fixe 30 et un plongeur tubulaire ou piston 31 qui est inserré à libre coulissement entre le noyau fixe 30 et le logement 13.The balance, designated as a whole by the reference 29, consists of two parts housed in the housing 13, namely a fixed central core 30 and a tubular plunger or piston 31 which is freely inserted sliding between the fixed core 30 and the housing 13.

Le noyau fixe 30 s'étend sur toute la longueur du logement 13, coaxialement à celui-ci. Dans l'exemple de réalisation de structure simple qui est illustré sur les figures 2A-2B, le noyau 13, qui peut être constitué en fonte ou en bronze brut de moulage, s'étend également à travers la chambre inférieure 12. Le logement 13 débouche sur la paroi supérieure 32 du distributeur et un bouchon étanche 33 ferme cet orifice en repoussant le noyau contre la face opposée 34 de la chambre 12, ce qui immobilise le noyau.The fixed core 30 extends over the entire length of the housing 13, coaxial therewith. In the example of realization of simple structure which is illustrated on Figures 2A-2B, the core 13, which can be made of cast iron or in raw bronze casting, also extends through the lower chamber 12. The housing 13 opens onto the wall upper 32 of the dispenser and a tight sealing cap 33 this orifice by pushing the core against the opposite face 34 of the chamber 12, which immobilizes the core.

Le plongeur tubulaire 31, qui peut être constitué en acier avec sa face intérieure rectifiée, possède une longueur inférieure à celle du noyau et est extérieurement conformé pout obturer (fig. 2A) ou découvrir plus ou moins (fig. 2B) selon la position occupée par le plongeur, l'orifice latéral par lequel les conduits 21 débouchent dans le logement 13.The tubular plunger 31, which can be made up of steel with its rectified inner face, has a length less than that of the core and is externally shaped to seal (fig. 2A) or more or less (fig. 2B) depending on the position occupied by the plunger, the orifice lateral by which the conduits 21 open into the housing 13.

En outre, le noyau central 30 et le plongeur tubulaire 31 sont mutuellement conformés pour définir entre eux une chambre annulaire 35 d'étendue radiale dont le volume varie en fonction de la position du plongeur.In addition, the central core 30 and the plunger tubular 31 are mutually shaped to define between them an annular chamber 35 of radial extent, the volume varies depending on the position of the diver.

Le plongeur 31 possède une surface annulaire 36 d'étendue radiale et propre à être soumise à la pression P du fluide d'admission. De même, le plongeur possède une surface annulaire 37 d'étendue radiale, tournée à l'opposé de la susdite surface 36 et propre à être soumise à la pression LS régnant dans le conduit LS 8 et la chambre supérieure 15 ; cette surface annulaire 37 appartient à une des parois définissant la chambre annulaire 35 précitée située entre le noyau et le plongeur.The plunger 31 has an annular surface 36 of radial extent and suitable for being subjected to pressure P intake fluid. Similarly, the diver has a annular surface 37 of radial extent, opposite of the aforesaid surface 36 and suitable for being subjected to the LS pressure prevailing in the LS 8 duct and the chamber upper 15; this annular surface 37 belongs to a walls defining the abovementioned annular chamber 35 located between the core and the plunger.

Enfin, pour assurer la distribution appropriée des pressions, le noyau 30 est percé d'un passage central, ici axial, 38. A ou vers son extrémité supérieure, ce passage 38 communique par un canal radial 39 avec la chambre supérieure 15 dans laquelle règne la pression LS. Un deuxième canal radial 40 fait communiquer le passage axial avec la chambre annulaire 35 de manière que la pression LS qui règne dans le passage axial 38 soit appliquée, via le canal radial 39, sur la surface annulaire 37 précitée. Enfin, un troisième canal radial 41 est situé vers l'extrémité inférieure du noyau 30; ce troisième canal radial 41 est agencé en tant que restriction ou gicleur 28 ou incorpore un tel gicleur et reste obturé par le plongeur 31 tant que la pression de charge du distributeur ne constitue pas la pression de charge la plus élevée, c'est-à-dire reste inférieure à la pression LS règnant dans la chambre supérieure 15.Finally, to ensure the proper distribution of pressures, the core 30 is pierced with a central passage, here axial, 38. At or towards its upper end, this passage 38 communicates via a radial channel 39 with the upper chamber 15 in which reigns the pressure LS. A second channel radial 40 communicates the axial passage with the chamber annular 35 so that the pressure LS prevailing in the axial passage 38 is applied, via the radial channel 39, to the annular surface 37 above. Finally, a third channel radial 41 is located towards the lower end of the core 30; this third radial channel 41 is arranged as a restriction or sprinkler 28 or incorporates such a sprinkler and remains closed by the plunger 31 as long as the charge pressure of the dispenser is not the highest charge pressure high, i.e. remains below the LS pressure prevailing in the upper room 15.

Pour amortir le déplacement du plongeur 31 et éviter ainsi sa vibration en cas de commande multiple simultanée, on freine l'écoulement du fluide sous pression LS dans ou hors de la chambre annulaire 35 en configurant le deuxième canal radial 40 en tant que gicleur ou en incorporant un gicleur dans ledit canal. To dampen the displacement of the plunger 31 and avoid thus its vibration in the event of simultaneous multiple control, the flow of the pressurized fluid LS is slowed down in or outside the annular chamber 35 by configuring the second radial channel 40 as a nozzle or by incorporating a sprinkler in said channel.

Pour obtenir un agencement structurel simple, avec un petit nombre de pièces composantes de fabrication peu complexe, on prévoit que le noyau 30 possède, dans sa partie supérieure, un corps élargi 42 et, dans sa partie inférieure, une partie de plus faible diamètre configurée en tige 43. De la même manière, le plongeur tubulaire 31 comprend une partie supérieure 44 de plus grand diamètre qui entoure le corps élargi 42 du noyau, en étant intercalé entre celui-ci et la paroi du logement 13, et une partie inférieure 45 de plus petit diamètre qui entoure la partie en forme de tige 43 du noyau. En outre, le corps élargi 42 du noyau 30 possède une longueur moindre que la partie supérieure 44 de plus grand diamètre du plongeur 31, de sorte que la susdite chambre annulaire 35 est définie entre les portions en vis-à-vis de la partie en forme de tige 43 du noyau et la partie de plus grand diamètre 44 du plongeur.To obtain a simple structural arrangement, with a small number of manufacturing component parts little complex, it is expected that the core 30 has, in its part upper body, an enlarged body 42 and, in its lower part, a smaller diameter part configured as a rod 43. Likewise, the tubular plunger 31 comprises an upper portion 44 of larger diameter which surrounds the enlarged body 42 of the core, being interposed between the latter and the wall of the housing 13, and a lower part 45 of smaller diameter which surrounds the shaped part stem 43 of the core. In addition, the enlarged body 42 of the core 30 has a shorter length than the upper part 44 of larger diameter of the plunger 31, so that the above annular chamber 35 is defined between the facing portions of the rod-shaped part 43 of the core and the part larger diameter 44 of the plunger.

Enfin les parties supérieure 44 de plus grand diamètre et inférieure 45 de plus faible diamètre du plongeur se raccordent l'un à l'autre par une paroi annulaire d'étendue radiale 46 dont les deux faces respectivement supérieure (intérieure à la chambre 35) et inférieure (tournée vers la chambre 12) constituent les deux surfaces précitées 37 soumise à la pression LS et 36 soumise à la pression d'admission P, respectivement.Finally the upper parts 44 of larger diameter and lower 45 smaller diameter of the plunger are connected to each other by an annular wall of radial extent 46, the two faces respectively upper (inside chamber 35) and lower (facing chamber 12) constitute the two surfaces supra 37 subject to LS pressure and 36 subject to inlet pressure P, respectively.

Grâce aux dispositions de l'invention, non seulement le nouvel agencement de la balance de régulation est apte à assurer les fonctions de détection de la pression de charge la plus élevée, antisaturation, et division de débit indépendante de la charge de la même manière que la balance antérieure du distributeur décrit dans le document FR-A-2 689 575, mais en outre la balance de régulation agencée selon l'invention est protégée contre les oscillations susceptibles d'être engendrées en cas de commandes multiples simultanées dans un dispositif de distribution multiple. On améliore ainsi considérablement les conditions de fonctionnement du récepteur hydraulique commandé par le distributeur et l'on simplifie notablement les conditions de travail de l'utilisateur qui n'a, désormais, plus à se soucier d'éviter de commander simultanément plusieurs récepteurs hydrauliques.Thanks to the provisions of the invention, not only the new arrangement of the regulatory balance is suitable for perform charge pressure detection functions highest, anti-saturation, and flow division load independent in the same way as the distributor's previous balance described in the document FR-A-2 689 575, but also the balance of regulation arranged according to the invention is protected against oscillations likely to be generated in the event of multiple simultaneous commands in one device multiple distribution. We thus considerably improve the operating conditions of the hydraulic receiver ordered by the distributor and we significantly simplify the working conditions of the user who, from now on, more to worry about avoiding ordering simultaneously several hydraulic receivers.

En outre, on notera que les dispositions techniques mises en oeuvre à cet effet restent simples, que le nombre des pièces composantes est réduit et que leur fabrication ne nécessite que des usinages courants.In addition, it should be noted that the technical provisions implemented for this purpose remain simple, that the number component parts is reduced and their manufacture does not requires only normal machining.

Enfin, on notera également que la balance de régulation conforme à l'invention peut être montée dans un corps de distributeur en lieu et place d'une balance de régulation de type antérieur.Finally, it will also be noted that the balance of regulation according to the invention can be mounted in a distributor body instead of a balance of previous type regulation.
