Abstract
Abstract In a poppet valve having a poppet slidingly movable in a casing formed with an inlet port and an outlet port through which a pressurized fluid such as oil is supplied and delivered, the cross-sectional area of a rear end of the poppet to which one part of the pressurized fluid is applied under the control of a pilot spool provided slidably in the poppet is made larger than the cross-sectional area of a forward end of the poppet to which the pressurized fluid supplied into the inlet port is applied directly.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
228 words
In a poppet valve operable under a comparatively high back pressure, comprising: a valve casing having an internal bore opening upwardly; a cover plate provided to close said opening; a poppet inserted slidably in said internal bore, said poppet having a tapered surface portion operable as a valve which is engageable with a valve seat formed around said internal bore; a pilot spool slidable within a central hole of said poppet; inlet and outlet ports opening into said internal bore at positions located on different sides of said valve seat for supplying and delivering a pressurized fluid in and out of said internal bore; and first and second passage means for introducing and discharging, under the control of said pilot spool, a part of said pressurized fluid in and out of a chamber formed between said cover plate and an upper end of said poppet, thereby displacing said poppet toward and away from said valve seat, the improvement wherein means are provided to hold said pilot spool at a desired position, and said poppet is formed with a stepped construction having an upper end portion of a diameter d 2 and a lower end portion of a diameter d 1 , said pilot spool having a diameter d 3 , and the relation (d.sub.2.sup.2 -d.sub.3.sup.2)>d.sub.1.sup.2 holds for the diameters d 1 , d 2 and d 3 .
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
228 words
In a poppet valve operable under a comparatively high back pressure, comprising: a valve casing having an internal bore opening upwardly; a cover plate provided to close said opening; a poppet inserted slidably in said internal bore, said poppet having a tapered surface portion operable as a valve which is engageable with a valve seat formed around said internal bore; a pilot spool slidable within a central hole of said poppet; inlet and outlet ports opening into said internal bore at positions located on different sides of said valve seat for supplying and delivering a pressurized fluid in and out of said internal bore; and first and second passage means for introducing and discharging, under the control of said pilot spool, a part of said pressurized fluid in and out of a chamber formed between said cover plate and an upper end of said poppet, thereby displacing said poppet toward and away from said valve seat, the improvement wherein means are provided to hold said pilot spool at a desired position, and said poppet is formed with a stepped construction having an upper end portion of a diameter d 2 and a lower end portion of a diameter d 1 , said pilot spool having a diameter d 3 , and the relation (d.sub.2.sup.2 -d.sub.3.sup.2)>d.sub.1.sup.2 holds for the diameters d 1 , d 2 and d 3 .
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
28 words
A poppet valve according to claim 1, wherein an end of said pilot spool extending outwardly through said cover is coupled to and driven by a control motor.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
24 words
A poppet valve according to claim 2, wherein said control motor is selected to be one of a stepping motor and a pulse motor.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
241 words
In a poppet valve operable under a comparatively high back pressure, comprising: a valve casing having an internal bore opening upwardly; a cover plate provided to close said opening; a poppet inserted slidably in said bore, said poppet having a tapered surface portion operable as a valve which is engageable with a valve seat formed around said internal bore; a pilot spool slidable within a central hole of said poppet; inlet and outlet ports opening into said internal bore at positions located on different sides of said valve seat for supplying and delivering a pressurized fluid in and out of said internal bore; and first and second passage means for introducing and discharging under the control of said pilot spool, a part of said pressurized fluid in and out of a chamber formed between said cover plate and an upper end of said poppet, thereby displacing said poppet toward and away from said valve seat, the improvement wherein means are provided to hold said pilot spool at a desired position, and a nose portion is provided which extends from the tapered surface portion of said poppet downwardly so as to penetrate a bottom wall of said casing, said nose portion having a diameter d 4 , while said poppet and said pilot spool have diameters d 1 and d 3 , respectively, and the relation (d.sub.1.sup.2 -d.sub.3.sup.2)>(d.sub.1.sup.2 -d.sub.4.sup.2) holds for the diameters d 1 , d 3 and d 4 .
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
241 words
In a poppet valve operable under a comparatively high back pressure, comprising: a valve casing having an internal bore opening upwardly; a cover plate provided to close said opening; a poppet inserted slidably in said bore, said poppet having a tapered surface portion operable as a valve which is engageable with a valve seat formed around said internal bore; a pilot spool slidable within a central hole of said poppet; inlet and outlet ports opening into said internal bore at positions located on different sides of said valve seat for supplying and delivering a pressurized fluid in and out of said internal bore; and first and second passage means for introducing and discharging under the control of said pilot spool, a part of said pressurized fluid in and out of a chamber formed between said cover plate and an upper end of said poppet, thereby displacing said poppet toward and away from said valve seat, the improvement wherein means are provided to hold said pilot spool at a desired position, and a nose portion is provided which extends from the tapered surface portion of said poppet downwardly so as to penetrate a bottom wall of said casing, said nose portion having a diameter d 4 , while said poppet and said pilot spool have diameters d 1 and d 3 , respectively, and the relation (d.sub.1.sup.2 -d.sub.3.sup.2)>(d.sub.1.sup.2 -d.sub.4.sup.2) holds for the diameters d 1 , d 3 and d 4 .
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
28 words
A poppet valve according to claim 4, wherein an end of said pilot spool extending outwardly through said cover is coupled to and driven by a control motor.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
24 words
A poppet valve according to claim 5 wherein said control motor is selected to be one of a stepping motor and a pulse motor.
