Abstract

A fluid valve for a hydraulic circuit of an aircraft includes a valve body with an inlet and two outlets. The valve further includes a solenoid electric actuator with a ferromagnetic mobile driver and a valve member having a ferromagnetic portion/ The valve member is movable within the valve body along a main direction and has first and second ends that define first and second cavities, respectively, on opposite sides of the valve member. A longitudinal cavity extends through the valve member parallel to the main direction and opens into the second cavity. Relative displacement between the mobile driver and the valve member modifies a communication between the longitudinal cavity and the first cavity via a side opening that is perpendicular to the main direction.
