Abstract
A pressure regulating spool valve 10 having a body 25 within which a spool 20 is moved in a dither motion by a proportional solenoid 15 has a spool land 40 separating high and low pressure fluids and spanning and cooperating with a regulated port recess 51 in body 25 for variably opening high and low pressure windows 54 and 55. With opposite edges 52 and 53 of recess 51 spaced apart by a distance X, the opposite edges 42 and 43 of spool land 40 spaced apart by a distance Y, and the dither motion imposed on spool 20 by solenoid 15 having an axial excursion A, the relationship X.ltoreq.Y.ltoreq.(X+A) applies. This makes the alternating overlap of spool land 40 with recess edges 52 and 53 equal to or less than the dither excursion so that high and low pressure windows 54 and 55 of the regulated port 50 are opened for a predetermined portion of each half cycle of the dither motion.
