Abstract

The distributor defines two parallel fluid circuits (15, 16) each including serially arranged first (1;1') and second (2;2') valve means actuated by the primary control member (OP) of the distributor, two distribution lines (17, 18) for selectively supplying the chambers of an assistance motor-actuator (12) derivating from said circuits (15, 16) downstream the primary valve means (1;1'), and two additional return valve means (3;3'), upstream said second valve means (2;2') coupled to the piston (13) of the actuator (12) to form a restriction in the return circuit from the actuator chamber in relieved condition and thus create an over-pressure enabling effective return of the actuator to neutral position after return of distributor to rest condition.
