Abstract
A hydrostatic steering system having a hand operated metering pump and steering control valve regulating and distributing fluid flow from a servo pump to a piston servomotor of the differential pressure surface type. A compensation valve disposed in the pressure line leading to one of the opposed chambers of the piston servomotor, is actuated by a differential pressure surface dimensioned to establish a constant ratio of pressures prevailing in the opposed pressure chambers in the neutral steering position while the metering pump is ineffective to produce any differential pressure. During active steering, the compensation valve is bypassed through a check valve.
