Abstract
A control valve includes valve elements relatively displaceable in response to a predetermined variable (e.g., a steering torque) to define therebetween two parallel fluid flow paths connected between a fluid source and a fluid reservoir to produce pressure difference in a power cylinder. The control valve comprises a bypass path provided with a variable flow orifice that has an orifice area variable in response to said predetermined variable and an externally controlled variable flow orifice valve that has an orifice area variable in response to a second predetermined variable which is different from the first predetermined variable.
