Abstract

This invention relates to force motors that are used in single stage hydraulic valves that are responsive to electrical input signals. The inertia of the force motor is reduced by having only a small portion of the force motor move. By reducing the mass of the moving parts of the force motor the force motor may be used with an increased speed of response.
